Patients with osteoarthritis (OA) have RAPID3 scores at their initial visit (16.0) similar to patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and either prior use of disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) or no exposure to DMARDs (15.6 and 15.5, respectively). After 6 months of treatment, the RAPID3 (Routine Assessment of Patient Index Data 3) score fell by just 1.7 points for patients with OA, compared with 5.7 points in RA patients naive to DMARDs and 4.3 points in those with prior DMARD exposure. These findings were published March 20 in Arthritis & Rheumatology (doi: 10.1002/art.40869).
