The aim of this study was to determine if patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) would be physically able to participate.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Methods:\u2002A consecutive cohort of RA patients undergoing podiatry care underwent tests for sight, reach and grip strength to determine their physical ability to undertake self\u2010managed foot care.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Results:\u2002Thirty RA patients (10 male, 20 female), with a median age of 61 years (range 42 to 84) and disease duration of 10 years (range one to 40), were recruited. All patients passed the sight test, whereas the reach and grip tests were passed by 77% and 67% of patients, respectively. Only 57% of patients passed all the physical tests. Patients who failed the physical tests were older, and had longer disease duration and higher physical disability, pain and general health scores but these were not statistically different.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Conclusions:\u2002Just over half the patients in this present cohort may be physically able to undertake some aspects of self\u2010managed foot care, including nail clipping and filing, callus filing and daily hygiene and inspection.
