Official title
Investigating Mechanisms of Participatory Autoimmune Condition Treatment (IMPACT): An Outcomes Research Registry of a Comprehensive Approach to Autoimmune Disorders
Overview
This is a patient research registry aimed at evaluating the effectiveness of a comprehensive, root-cause medical approach ("AndHealth program") for autoimmune disorders. This approach involves a combination of pharmacological and non-pharmacological therapies offered under the care of a licensed physician with the support of health coaches. While protocol guidance is provided, the therapeutic approach is personalized to the individual needs of patients. The autoimmune disorders of focus in this registry include rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, psoriasis and ankylosing spondylitis. A variety of validated labs, patient-reported outcomes, and medication usage will be assessed among participating patients over a period of up to five years to evaluate the long-term effectiveness of this approach.
Interventions
- Other Root-cause autoimmune treatment program
The AndHealth autoimmune treatment program combines validated and guideline-driven approaches along with emerging evidence-based modalities. The program includes a comprehensive assessment of disease severity, analysis of root causes and comorbidities, and an evaluation of the patient's readiness for implementing important lifestyle changes. This is followed by the development of an optimized and personalized plan to achieve and sustain clinical remission while monitoring their progress. Each pa
