A Novel Centralized 'Virtual' Gout Clinic for Chronic Gout Management (NIAMS :CoRT)
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Pharmacist-Led Intervention for Gout. Completed, enrolled 1,463 participants across 2 sites.
Detailed Summary
The overarching goal of the investigators project is to identify best practices in gout and hyperuricemia management, translate these evidence-based practices into a highly generalizable strategy for optimal delivery of gout care, and implement and evaluate such a strategy in a large, population-based healthcare setting. With the use of novel but readily-accessible technology, the investigators will examine the use of a novel, large-scale, and relatively low-cost pharmacy-based intervention, with the goal of optimizing urate lower therapy (ULT) in chronic gout treatment.
