Abstract

The International Dermatology Outcome Measures (IDEOM) initiative presented an update on their progress related to instruments for psoriasis (PsO) and psoriatic arthritis (PsA) patient-centered outcome measures at the 2021 annual meeting of the Group for Research and Assessment of Psoriasis and Psoriatic Arthritis (GRAPPA). The Treatment Satisfaction working group presented the development of a 7-item treatment satisfaction questionnaire specific for dermatological conditions. The group is beginning by assessing the validity and reliability of the instrument in PsO patient populations, with the ultimate goal of validating it for use in multiple dermatological diseases. The Musculoskeletal Symptoms working group discussed how implementation of a screening measurement tool in patients with PsO can help identify unknown diagnoses of PsA or prevent worsening of symptoms.
