Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of this study is to determine the feasibility and acceptability of using different remote data collection technologies to ascertain flare occurrence among gout patients. Two technologies will be the focus of this study: a telephone based interactive voice response (IVR) and a smartphone mobile application (called RheumPRO). The results of this study will not only guide research approaches in clinical trials, but may also have direct implications for monitoring patient outcomes in the context of day-to-day clinical practice. The investigators hypothesize that acceptability will be greater for RheumPRO application than IVR. Additionally, the investigators hypothesize that RheumPRO will be associated with a greater frequency of patient-initiated interactions.
