Foot Health Education for People with Rheumatoid Arthritis: '…. A Game of Chance…' – A Survey of Patients' Experiences
ConclusionFoot pathology in people with RA has a bio‐psychosocial impact on their lives. Foot health and related information appears to be considered rarely within the medical consultation. Access to foot health information and services is limited owing to a lack of patient and/or health professional awareness, with a detrimental impact on the prognosis of their foot health. The importance of foot health in people with RA should be reinforced for patients and health professionals alike. Opportunities to discuss foot health within the medical consultation should be provided regularly. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & So...

Diagnosis, Management and Assessment of Adults with Joint Hypermobility Syndrome: A UK‐Wide Survey of Physiotherapy Practice
Abstract
Joint hypermobility syndrome (JHS) is a heritable disorder associated with excessive joint range of motion and pain in the absence of inflammatory joint disease. It is a relatively common cause of musculoskeletal pain but is generally understood to be under‐recognized and poorly managed in clinical practice. The present study therefore aimed to identify how JHS is diagnosed, managed and assessed in routine physiotherapy practice. A survey tool was developed from similar physiotherapy surveys of musculoskeletal practice, a review of the literature, and consultation with researchers and clinicians. Paper copies of...

‘What I Really Needed Was the Truth’. Exploring the Information Needs of People with Complex Regional Pain Syndrome
ConclusionThe reported lack of information resulted in a struggle for participants to understand their condition, and access professional expertise and appropriate treatments. Health professionals require access to accurate information in order to share this with individuals with CRPS in a timely manner. Easily accessible and high‐quality patient resources to facilitate early referral for expertise are required. A central resource to identify local expertise would be valuable.
