EULAR published 9 recommendations, which cover the implementation of self-management interventions in patients with inflammatory arthritis, in the Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases.

#1 Providers should encourage patients to be active partners of the care team and inform them of professionals and patient organizations involved in all aspects of their care

#2 Patient education should be the starting point of, and underpin all, self-management strategies.

#3 Self-management strategies that include problem-solving and goal-setting and, where relevant and possible, cognitive behavioral therapy, should be included in routine clinical practice.

#4 Providers should promote physical activity, starting at diagnosis, throughout the disease course

#5 Patients should receive lifestyle advice based on evidence to better manage common comorbidities

#6 Patients’ mental health should be assessed “periodically,” with appropriate interventions made available if necessary

#7 Health professionals should initiate discussions about patients’ work, and “signpost” to helpful resources where appropriate

#8 Digital health care options should be considered for inclusion in supported self-management, where appropriate and available

#9 Providers should educate themselves on the available resources that may help their patients
