About This Presentation

Description : Check out this medical PowerPoint presentation titled "Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) Management” by Dr MUKESH SINGLA.

This medical PowerPoint presentation is about rheumatoid arthritis (RA), a chronic autoimmune disorder that affects the joints, causing pain, stiffness, and inflammation. While there is no cure for RA, there are a variety of treatments available that can help manage the symptoms and slow the progression of the disease. This presentation lists some approaches to RA management.

Transcript

Slide 1-

Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) Management 1
Slide 2-

Objectives Define rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and discuss epidemiology and risk factors of RA Identify pathogenesis and clinical presentation of RA Review diagnostic criteria and RA disease activity Review the treatment algorithm for RA (pharmacologic & non-pharmacologic) 2
Slide 3-

NCQA Ratings and HEDIS Measures The National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) is dedicated to improve the quality of health care by rating the established Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (HEDIS) measures The Disease-Modifying Anti-Rheumatic Drug Therapy for Rheumatoid Arthritis is a HEDIS measure which is under the effectiveness of care domain The measure is the percentage of members 18 years of age and older diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis and who were dispensed at least one ambulatory prescription for a disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drug (DMARD) 3
Slide 4-

What is Rheumatoid Arthritis? The most common systemic auto-immune inflammatory disease characterized by symmetric, relapsing, or chronic destructive synovitis Synovitis = inflammation of the synovial membrane which lines joints 4
Slide 5-

Epidemiology Annual incidence of RA: 40 per 100,000 per year About 1.3 million U.S. adults are affected Women are affected two to three times more often than men 5
Slide 6-

Risk Factors Smoking Genetic predisposition HLA-DRB1 gene family history Sex (female) Increasing age Obesity (overweight) 6
Slide 7-

Pathogenesis The initial triggering event is not clear T cells and B cells activated (in response to mutated citrullinated vimentin (MCV), structural protein in human) Antibodies to MCV complex with MCV to precipitate in joint Production of inflammatory cytokines (IL-6,TNF) Macrophages, lymphocytes, and plasma cells Metalloprotinases (MMP) from Macrophages to damage synovial tissue Rheumatoid factor from plasma cells 7
Slide 8-

Clinical Presentation Joint pain and stiffness (bilateral and symmetrical) Joint swelling and deformity (Hallux Valgus/Swan Neck Deformity) Tenderness Warmth Rheumatoid nodules
Slide 9-

Clinical Presentation 9 Low grade fever Loss of appetite Fatigue and weakness
Slide 10-

Complications of RA 10 Pulmonary – COPD, pulmonary fibrosis Cardiac – Pericarditis Eye – Inflammation of episclera Blood - Thrombocytosis
Slide 11-

Diagnostic Criteria The American College of Rheumatology and European League Against Rheumatism 2010 Guideline (ACR/EULAR 2010 guideline) There are categories A to D Category A: Joint Involvement Category B: Serology Category C: Acute Phase Reactants Category D: Duration of Symptoms Patients must have a score of equal or greater than 6 out of 10 11
Slide 12-

ACR/EULAR CriteriaCategory A: Joint Involvement Small Joint: wrists, metacarpophalangeal joints, proximal interphalangeal joints, 2nd – 5th metatarsophalangeal joints, and thumb joints Large joint: shoulders, elbows, hips, knees, and ankles 12
Slide 13-

ACR/EULAR CriteriaCategory B: Serology RF – rheumatoid factor ACPA – anti-citrullinated protein antibody Low-positive: defined as higher than the upper limit of normal (ULN) but not equal or less than three times of the ULN High-positive: defined as greater than three times of ULN 13
Slide 14-

ACR/EULAR CriteriaCategory C: Acute Phase Reactants CRP – C-reactive protein ESR – Erythrocyte sedimentation rate 14
Slide 15-

ACR/EULAR CriteriaCategory D: Duration of Symptoms Patient self-report on duration of signs/symptoms 15
Slide 16-

RA Disease Activity Instruments 16
Slide 17-

Treatment Algorithm for RA
Slide 18-

Treatment Algorithm for Early RA: < 6 months 18 Early RA
Slide 19-

Treatment Algorithm forEstablished RA: ≥ 6 months 19
Slide 20-

Treatment Algorithm forEstablished RA: ≥ 6 months (Continues) 20
Slide 21-

Medications (DMARDs) 21
Slide 22-

Traditional DMARDs 22
Slide 23-

Biologic DMARDs (TNF-I) Etanercept (Enbrel) – 50 mg SC once weekly Adalimumab (Humira) – 40 mg SC every 2 weeks Infliximab (Remicade) – 3 mg/kg IV over ≥2 hrs at 0,2, and 6 weeks. Certolizumab pegol (Cimzia) – 400 mg SC at 0,2, and 4 weeks initially and 200 mg SC every other week or 400 mg every 4 weeks for maintenance. Golimumab (Simponi Aria) – 50 mg SC once a month or 2 mg/kg IV over 30 min at 0 and 4, then every 8 weeks. 23
Slide 24-

Biologic DMARDs (non-TNF) Rituximab (Rituxan) – 1000 mg IV on days 1 and 15 Anakinra (Kineret) – 100 mg SC once a day Abatacept (Orencia) – 500 – 1000 mg IV at 0,2, and 4 weeks, then every 4 weeks or 125 mg SC weekly Tocilizumab (Actemra) – 4 mg/kg IV over 60 min every 4 weeks or 162 mg SC every week (for ≥100kg) and every other week (for <100 kg) Sarilumab (Kevzara) – 200 mg SC every 2 weeks 24
Slide 25-

Biologic DMARDs (TNFI & non-TNF) Must screen patient for TB prior to initiate therapy Treat latent or active TB for 1 month prior to starting or resuming biologics Avoid live vaccines while on therapy Give appropriate vaccinations (inactivated) Pneumococcal Influenza (IM) Hepatitis B (if risk factors exist: healthcare personnel, drug abuse, multiple sex partners) 25
Slide 26-

Synthetic small molecule Tofacitinib (Xeljanz, Xeljanz XR) – 5 mg by mouth twice a day for immediate release and 11 mg by mouth once a day for extended release. Adverse reactions – Serious infections including TB, fungal, viral, or other opportunistic infections, Lipid abnormalities, Bradycardia, Malignancy Patient education – avoid live vaccines during therapy and check TB prior to therapy 26
Slide 27-

Other Treatments Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) Corticosteroids Thermotherapy Electromagnetic and ultrasound therapies Patient education programs like nurse-led patient education program, mindfulness-based stress reduction, and coaching program for healthy physical activity. 27
Slide 28-

Interesting/Useful App MyRA Track joint pain daily Track medications Track activity limits Summary report 28
