RAISE Trial Summary

This trial tests whether providing tailored lists of resources and/or a specialized nurse navigator to patients with inflammatory arthritis and SDoH-related needs can reduce missed appointments and improve health outcomes.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with arthritis-related rheumatic conditions who missed at least one clinic visit in the past year and have social needs, except unemployment or education. They must be getting care at specific hospitals, speak English or Spanish, and not be enrolled in certain other care programs.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests three support strategies for patients with systemic rheumatic conditions: a tailored resource list (Arm 1), help from a community specialist (Arm 2), and assistance from a nurse navigator trained in these conditions working with the community specialist (Arm 3).See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves non-medical interventions like providing resources and personal guidance rather than drugs or medical procedures, traditional side effects are not expected. However, there may be indirect effects on patients' well-being based on their experiences.
