Summary: During the randomized controlled trial, it was found that telehealth follow-up led by nurses (PRO-TN) and rheumatologists (PRO-TR) appeared to be less costly and yield similar health outcomes compared to conventional outpatient follow-up. Further studies are needed to determine the cost-effectiveness of telehealth compared to traditional follow-up in rheumatology.

Summary: This study evaluated the outcomes and quality of care for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients who received video telemedicine follow-up compared to in-person only. The results showed that in short-term follow-up, there was no significant difference in most outcome and quality measures between the two groups.

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted rheumatological clinical practice and autoimmunity testing demands, resulting in a decrease in laboratory test volumes and first rheumatological visits and diagnoses in 2020. However, an equivalent or higher percentage of positive autoimmunity results were recorded in outpatient services during 2020 compared to the prepandemic state, with new diagnoses mainly affected by less severe diseases.

Summary: The majority of patients and clinicians rated telemedicine as worse than face-to-face consultations, although over 60% found it more convenient. Concerns were raised about potential misdiagnoses, inequalities, and barriers to accessing care associated with telemedicine.

Summary: This study evaluated the effects of telemedicine (TM) compared to standard in-person follow-up (SF) for patients with lupus nephritis (LN) during the COVID-19 pandemic. The results showed that TM resulted in higher patient satisfaction and similar disease control, but was associated with more hospitalizations and may need to be complemented by in-person visits.

Summary: This study compared the subsequent disease activity and flares among SLE patients who received teleconsultation or in-person consultation. The results showed that there was no significant difference in disease activity and flares between the two forms of consultations, and physicians' prescription behavior was also similar.

Summary: This study evaluated the reliability of virtual video-assisted visits in the treatment of inflammatory rheumatic diseases (IRDs). The results showed that virtual visits can effectively identify patients who need treatment adjustment, with high sensitivity and specificity. However, the consistency of data in virtual video consultations was lower for certain diseases and measures.

Summary: This study found that virtual care was widely adopted among patients with chronic diseases during the COVID-19 pandemic, with higher utilization rates compared to in-person care. Both low and high virtual care user groups experienced reduced hospitalizations and laboratory testing during the pandemic, but hospitalization volumes increased again only among high users. Virtual care had the highest adoption rates in the mental health field.

Summary: This study investigates the impact of a lockdown policy implemented by the province of Ontario, Canada, in 2021 on the Covid-19 third wave. It considers the effects of both Non-Pharmaceutical Interventions (NPIs) and vaccination. The results show that strict NPIs, such as lockdown, are necessary to control Covid-19 waves, even when vaccination is in progress, and early re-openings should be avoided.

Summary: During the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic, patients with RA, PsA, AS, and SLE frequently avoided office visits and laboratory testing. DMARD interruptions commonly occurred without the advice of a physician and were associated with SES, office visits, and telehealth availability, highlighting the need for adequate healthcare access and attention to vulnerable populations during the pandemic.

Summary: The study found that there was a significant shift in primary care in Ontario from office to virtual care during the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic, with a 28.0% decrease in total visits. However, total visits in rural areas increased by 6.4%. The smallest declines in visits were seen among older adults and patients with higher expected health care use. Virtual care made up a significant portion of primary care physician visits, but uptake was lower among children, rural residents, and physicians with more patients.

Summary: Telerheumatology visits were found to be noninferior to in-person visits and are often more time and cost effective for patients. Both clinicians and patients had positive attitudes towards the use of telerheumatology, seeing its usefulness even beyond the pandemic. However, some of the most vulnerable patients still lack the basic resources needed for telehealth visits.

Summary: The study investigated the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on rheumatology care in a community practice-based network, revealing large disruptions in care delivery offset partially by increased telehealth use. However, disparities in access to care were found for vulnerable populations during the pandemic era.

Summary: During the COVID-19 pandemic, healthcare utilization decreased by approximately one third, with greater reductions observed among individuals with milder illnesses. Studies suggest that understanding the impacts of these reductions on health systems may aid in reducing unnecessary care during postpandemic recovery efforts.

Summary: During the SARS-CoV-2 global pandemic, there was a significant decrease in rheumatology outpatient visits in the U.S., accompanied by an increase in the use of telemedicine. Practices in states with shelter-in-place orders experienced a more significant decrease in visits. While there was a decrease in visit counts, there were no major differences in primary diagnoses or disease activity across the two periods.

Summary: During the COVID-19 pandemic, patients with vasculitis showed high levels of concern and engaged in potentially harmful health-related behaviors. Healthcare utilization varied among different demographic groups and geographical regions. Specific strategies are needed to facilitate engagement of these patients with the healthcare system during the pandemic.
