Highlights |
• | In this randomized controlled trial, giving access to the interactive Sanoia e-health platform led to a small improvement in patient-perceived patient-physician interactions. |
• | E-Health platforms are promising adjuncts to physician care in RA. |
• | Although mean satisfaction with the platform was very high, around a quarter of the patients did not use the interactive platform. |
• | Future studies of e-health should measure not only patient satisfaction but a combination of both patient satisfaction and utilization. |
Abstract |
Introduction |
Sanoia is an online interactive electronic e-health platform developed to allow patient self-assessment and self-monitoring. The objective was to assess in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients, the efficacy on patient-physician interactions, of giving access to Sanoia.
Methods |
In this French, multi-center, 12-months randomized controlled trial (CarNET: NCT02200068), patients with RA and internet access were randomized to: access without incentives to the Sanoia platform after minimal training, or usual care. The primary outcome was the change from baseline in patient-physician interactions, by the patient-reported Perceived Efficacy in Patient–Physician Interactions (PEPPI-5) questionnaire. The number of accesses to Sanoia was recorded and satisfaction with the platform was assessed through a 0–10 numeric rating scale. Analyses were in intention to treat (ITT), on SAS.
Results |
Of 320 RA patients (159 Sanoia versus 161 usual care), mean (standard deviation) age was 57.0 (12.7) years, mean (SD) disease duration was 14.6 (11.1) years, 216 (67.5%) were taking a biologic and 253 (79.1%) were female. Mean (SD) PEPPI scores at baseline and 12 months were 38.6 (8.2) and 39.2 (8.0) (delta=+0.60 [5.52]) versus 39.7 (7.3) and 38.8 (8.0) (delta=−0.91 [6.08]) in the Sanoia and control group, respectively (P=0.01). Although mean satisfaction with the platform was very high (1.46 [1.52]), 41 patients (25.7%) never accessed Sanoia.
Conclusion |
Giving RA patients access to the interactive Sanoia e-health platform led to a small improvement in patient-perceived patient-physician interactions. A disjunction between patient satisfaction and access to the platform was noted. E-Health platforms are promising in RA.
