[Patient education in rheumatology]
Abstract
Most of the patients with rheumatic diseases do not know enough about their disease and its treatment. This may influence patient's satisfaction and compliance. Patient education is a useful approach to reduce the negative consequences of the lack of knowledge and non-compliance. Rheumatologists have recognized patient education as an important part of the long-term management of rheumatic diseases.
