Psoriatic Arthritis D2P Screening (NCT04110522)

Accelerating Psoriatic Arthritis Detection in Patients With Psoriasis: Direct-to-patient Administration of Screening Questionnaires (D2P Screening)

πŸ”΅ Active, Not Recruiting Observational / Diagnostic πŸ“‹ Clinical Research Protocol Sponsor: Jessica Walsh

🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

The overarching goal of this study is to develop a direct-to-patient screening approach that will improve early Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA) detection in patients with psoriasis. Previously developed screening questionnaires were intended for use in the setting of a doctor's office to assist providers with referral decisions. However, these screening questionnaires are infrequently used in routine practice because of limitations with time and resources. The study will aim to develop a practical screening strategy that does not require involvement from dermatologists (or other non-rheumatology providers) and can systematically reach a broad range of psoriasis patients, including patients not attending dermatology clinics. The researchers hypothesize that disseminating questionnaires directly to patients outside of a clinic setting (direct-to-patient approach) will educate patients about their PsA risk and improve early PsA diagnoses.
