Summary

Inflammatory rheumatic diseases affect 1% of the population. Treatment of such diseases should be based on disease activity, safety issues and other patient characteristics such as comorbidities (EULAR, 2022), leading to a higher risk of cardiovascular diseases. To this end, the general treat-to-target approach, as recommended in the EULAR guidance, may require several successive treatment lines based on updates to the patients' profile and close monitoring as the keystone of its implementation. Regular feedback from patients could be used to fuel such strategies. This feedback can be collected using an ePRO (electronic Patient Reported Outcome). The purpose of this study is therefore to assess patient management using the information provided by patients through e-PROs, which will transfer the data provided by the patient to the physician and will notify the investigators via email when a patient has completed a form (no data interpretation or alerts). The hypothesis is that the more physicians are provided with insights into their patients' health, the more they will function in a treat-to-target approach and the more often they will tend to adjust their patients' treatments.
