Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The ultimate objective of the proposed research is to improve the health-related quality of life of individuals with rheumatoid arthritis by reducing their risk of developing osteoporosis secondary to glucocorticoid therapy. The study has four specific aims. Specific Aim 1: To obtain descriptive information concerning patients' knowledge, beliefs and behaviors with respect to osteoporosis and osteoporosis prevention. Specific Aim 2: To identify factors that discriminate among patients in different stages of change with respect to each behavior of interest. Specific Aim 3: To compare the effects of tailored versus generic educational materials on patient adherence to the ACR Guidelines for the Prevention of Glucocorticoid-Induced Osteoporosis. Specific Aim 4: To determine if the effects of tailored educational materials are enhanced by concurrent feedback of information concerning patients' behavioral risk factor status to their physicians.
