Self-management and peer support among people with arthritis on a hospital joint replacement waiting list: A randomised controlled trial
Osteoarthritis and Cartilage , 06/24/09
Crotty M et al. - The arthritis self-management program improved health-directed behaviours, skill acquisition and stiffness in patients on a joint replacement waiting list, although the observed effects were of modest size. There was no significant effect on pain, function or quality of life in the short term. Self-management programs can assist in maintaining health behaviours (particularly walking) in this patient group.
