Key Points

To evaluate the role of residual symptoms in achieving the Patient Acceptable Symptom State in rheumatoid arthritis.
Assessment of residual symptoms using the Okomarigoto Sheet
Evaluation of Patient Acceptable Symptom State
Participants included patients with rheumatoid arthritis
Analysis of associations between residual symptoms and symptom acceptability
Absence of residual symptoms is linked to achieving the Patient Acceptable Symptom State
Patients in SDAI-defined remission can still report residual symptoms
Targeted management may enhance patient satisfaction and shared decision-making in care.

Abstract

The complete absence of residual symptoms, as measured by the OS, was strongly associated with achieving PASS, even among patients in SDAI-defined remission. Systematic evaluation and targeted management of residual symptoms may improve patient satisfaction and facilitate shared decision-making in RA care.
