The role of the multidisciplinary team in the management of psoriatic arthritis

Abstract

Psoriatic arthritis (PsA) has a heterogenous clinical phenotype with manifestations in a number of different organs and systems. Whilst PsA is typified by enthesitis, synovitis and psoriasis (skin and nail); innate and adaptive immune system dysfunction often results in concomitant conditions. These include inflammatory bowel disease, uveitis, metabolic syndrome, metabolic bone disease and mental health issues. All of which have the potential to impact on quality of life, daily function, employment, family life and social activities. Through a collection of clinical vignettes, we describe the importance of multi-disciplinary and multi-speciality involvement in the care of people with PsA.

Keywords: Crohn's disease; multi-disciplinary; multi-specialty; psoriasis; psoriatic arthritis; spondyloarthritis; ulcerative colitis uveitis.
