ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT Objective: Rheumatoid arthritis is a prevalent disease in the population (range 0.5% to 1%) and involves both orthopedic and rheumatologic treatment. The Time Trade-Off (TTO) technique, which determines the number of years the patient or the professional would be allowed before a successful procedure in terms of life expectancy and value of the procedure, has been gaining ground in clinical protocols. From this standpoint, we sought to compare evaluations provided by the patients, orthopedists, and rheumatologists in determining the TTO and to correlate their responses with the clinical repercussions using previously established scores such as the Brief Michigan Hand Questionnaire and the Disease Activity Score-28 (DAS-28). Methods: A prospective study was conducted that involved 37 patients with rheumatoid arthritis, orthopedists, and rheumatologists. The TTO questionnaire was administered by an independent evaluator for evaluation using the DAS-28 and the Brief Michigan Hand Questionnaire. Results: The descriptive analysis revealed similar medians between the orthopedists, rheumatologists, and patients for single assessments. However, there was a weak correlation between the results from the patient and rheumatologist, the patient and Brief Michigan Questionnaire, and those of the orthopedic surgeon and the DAS-28. Conclusion: Similar median values demonstrated equivalent TTO among the orthopedist, rheumatologist, and patient. However, given the weak correlations between the scores, it was not possible to substitute results using a single evaluation scale. Level of Evidence II, Prognostic Studies.


RESUMO Objetivo: Artrite reumatoide é uma doença prevalente na população (0,5% a 1%), envolvendo tratamento tanto ortopédico, quanto reumatológico. A técnica do "Time Trade Off", que determina a quantidade de anos que o paciente ou o profissional daria para ter sucesso absoluto em determinado procedimento, vem ganhando espaço nos protocolos modernos. Diante disto, comparamos a avaliação dada pelo paciente, pelo ortopedista e pelo reumatologista usando "Time Trade Off" e correlacionamos com repercussão clínica e escores já estabelecidos: Brief Michigan Questionnaire (Anexo I) e Disease Activity Score-28 (DAS-28) (Anexo II). Métodos: Estudo prospectivo com 37 pacientes diagnosticados com artrite reumatoide, que foram submetidos ao questionário "Time Trade Off" pelo ortopedista, pelo reumatologista e por um avaliador independente, e avaliação através do DAS-28 e do Brief Michigan. Resultados: Através da análise descritiva, notou-se medianas semelhantes entre ortopedista, reumatologista e paciente. Entretanto, evidenciou-se correlação fraca entre paciente e reumatologista, paciente e o Brief Michigan; e ortopedista e o DAS-28. Conclusão: Valores de mediana semelhantes demonstram "Time Trade Off" equivalentes entre ortopedista, reumatologista e paciente. Mas, diante das correlações fracas entre os escores, não foi possível substituí-los por uma escala única de avaliação. Nível de Evidência II, Estudo Prognóstico.
