简要总结
This study was carried out to investigate the effect of a nurse-led disease management education program in AS on patient compliance, disease activity, functional capacity, kinesiophobia, and quality of life. A total of 122 patients diagnosed with AS according to the modified New York criteria were included in the study. The intervention group received nurse-led individualized disease management education. In the control group, no interventions were performed other than routine clinical procedures.

A total of 122 patients diagnosed with AS according to the modified New York criteria were included in the study. The intervention group received nurse-led individualized disease management education. After the education, the group was contacted by telephone six times for 12 weeks to monitor the results. Patient education was provided through booklets and videos. In the control group, no interventions were performed other than routine clinical procedures.Patients were assessed using the same scales at baseline and end of the week 12.

结局指标
主要结局
Change in scores Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index
时间窗: 12 weeks
Disease Activity will be evaluated by Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index. There are 6 questions in the scale that examine the symptoms of joint pain, fatigue and morning stiffness. Using a visual analog scale, patients are asked to give points (0-10 points) for each question according to the severity of the symptoms (0 = no symptoms, 10 = very severe). The scale score is calculated by taking the average score of the last two questions regarding morning stiffness, adding the scores from the first four questions, and dividing the result by 5. An increase in the scale score is considered as an increase in disease activity, and a decrease in the score is considered as a decrease in disease activity.
Change in scores Ankylosing Spondylitis Quality of Life Scale
时间窗: 12 weeks
Quality of life will be evaluated by Ankylosing Spondylitis Quality of Life Scale. In the scale where disease symptoms, functional status and concerns about the disease are questioned, one of the options "Yes" or "No" is selected for each question (Yes = 1, No = 0), and the scale score varies between 0-18 points. An increase in the score is considered as a decrease in the quality of life.
Change in scores Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index
时间窗: 12 weeks
Functional Status will be evaluated by Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index. Patients are asked to rate how difficult they are doing each activity on a scale of 0-10 (0 = easy, 10 = impossible). Scale scoring is calculated by adding the scores of all questions and dividing by 10. An increase in the BASFI score is considered as a decrease in functional capacity.
Change in scores Compliance Questionnaire on Rheumatology
时间窗: 12 weeks
Treatment compliance will be evaluated by Compliance Questionnaire on Rheumatology.It consists of 19 items. The scores obtained from the scale vary between 0-100 points, and higher scores indicate increased compliance, while lower scores indicate decreased compliance.
Change in scores Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia
时间窗: 12 weeks
Kinesiophobia will be evaluated by Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia. The scale score is calculated by summing the scores from each question and varies between 17-68 points. An increase in the scale score is considered as an increase in the fear of movement / injury.
