This trial, which involves seven U.S. clinics and 1,000 patients, will collect one to three additional RA measures at normal clinic visits. Dr. Michaud will compare the data to that collected in common paper forms to develop highly standardized measures that can be used to provide quantitative evidence for controlling RA and other
