In order to reduce the burden on the NHS, growing<br>pressure is being placed on individuals and society to self-manage this long-term condition. In<br>response, Salford\u2019s research team designed, developed and tested a suite of arthritis-specific<br>clinical assessments to unravel the myriad ways in which this condition can affect individuals so<br>that tailored self-management strategies could be devised. Innovative treatments were<br>developed and tested for their clinical efficacy and cost-effectiveness, as well as ease of<br>implementation in the NHS. Findings were utilised to inform treatment policy, guidelines and<br>clinical practice changes. This has led to improvements in rehabilitation services for people with<br>arthritis, an upskilling of health professionals in rheumatology and cost savings across the NHS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This case study was submitted to REF 2021.
