The aim of the present study was to investigate if a physiotherapy\u2010led outpatient clinic specializing in SpA could provide satisfactory follow\u2010up as an alternative to standard visits with a rheumatologist (RT). We hypothesized that satisfaction would be similar in patients followed by a physiotherapist (PT) or an RT.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>A total of 68 patients were randomized to follow\u2010up every fourth month by a PT or RT, for three visits in total. Patient satisfaction was evaluated using the Leeds Satisfaction Questionnaire (LSQ). Function, mobility and disease activity were rated using the Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index (BASFI), Mobility Index (BASMI) and Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Score (ASDAS).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Patients were equally satisfied with PT and RT follow\u2010up at the first (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> = 0.062) and last (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> = 0.710) visit. At the second visit, the RT group was seen by a nurse, and was more satisfied than the PT group (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> = 0.015). Function deteriorated in both the PT (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> = 0.014) and RT (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> = 0.007) groups. Mobility increased in the PT group (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic> = 0.020). Disease activity was not affected.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Patients seem to be equally satisfied with either of the follow\u2010up regimes. The PT\u2010led follow\u2010up did not seem to affect the patients' course of disease negatively. The results indicate that it would be safe to implement a PT\u2010led clinic for patients with SpA in specialist health services, but longer\u2010term follow\u2010up is necessary to support the findings of this study.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/msc.1241","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,3,25]],"date-time":"2018-03-25T00:00:52Z","timestamp":1521936052000},"page":"388-397","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Patients with spondyloarthritis are equally satisfied with follow\u2010up by physiotherapist and rheumatologist"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"Pauline Kjelsvik","family":"Hol\u00f8yen","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Rheumatology \u00c5lesund Hospital  \u00c5lesund Norway"},{"name":"Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, Department of Neuromedicine and Movement Science Norwegian University of Science and Technology  Trondheim Norway"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1820-5130","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ann\u2010Katrin","family":"Stensdotter","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, Department of Neuromedicine and Movement Science Norwegian University of Science and Technology  Trondheim Norway"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,3,24]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_7_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1071\/AH090663"},{"key":"e_1_2_7_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/ard.2011.151027"},{"issue":"12","key":"e_1_2_7_4_1","first-page":"2281","article-title":"A new approach to defining functional ability in ankylosing spondylitis: The development of the Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Functional Index","volume":"21","author":"Calin A.","year":"1994","journal-title":"Journal of Rheumatology"},{"issue":"1","key":"e_1_2_7_5_1","first-page":"32","article-title":"The physical therapy practitioner (PTP) in pediatric rheumatology: High level of patient and parent satisfaction with services","volume":"54","author":"Campos A.
