简要总结
This project seeks to collect data on healthcare utilization and expenditure rates in Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) patients from across the US, correlate these costs with disease activity and outcome measures and determine methods by which to reduce the economic impact while improving outcomes.
详细描述
SPECIFIC AIMS AND OBJECTIVES
The specific aims of this registry protocol are:
- To create and maintain a secure online database of patients with JIA
- To collect data elements related to cost of care in patients with JIA
- Compare standard outcome and disease activity measures to health care expenditures in JIA
- To determine methods by which to reduce costs while improving outcomes and quality of care
The study plans to enroll 300 or more subjects from 3 medical centers in the US over a 24 month period. Subjects in the study are patients with Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis.
Enrollment into the protocol will include key demographic and clinical data including, medication exposures, disease severity, and function including disease-specific data elements; and estimates of health care service utilization and health care expenditures. Data will be collected once per subject within the context of a standard of care visit.
