Future Osteoarthritis Treatment - Free Open Online Course for All

Sponsor: Eva Ekvall-Hansson

Summary

The basic treatment for osteoarthritis is education and information, often provided as so-called osteoarthritis schools. These can be provided either physically at the health center or digitally. The content is similar in all osteoarthritis schools. It is not clear whether today's osteoarthritis schools contain what people with osteoarthritis are asking for in terms of education and information. The purpose of this project is therefore to highlight what people with osteoarthritis want the osteoarthritis school to contain and whether there is a need for other ways of running osteoarthritis schools than today. Participating in this project means that you will be invited to a focus group with other people who have osteoarthritis. Focus groups will be held at Forum Medicum, Sölvegatan 19 in Lund and will last approximately 1 hour. There will be several different times to choose from. The conversation in the focus group will be recorded. The project will collect and register information about you. We will collect information about gender, age, in which joint(s) the person has osteoarthritis and how long they have had osteoarthritis, as well as whether they have participated in any osteoarthritis school and if so, what form (physical or digital). The recorded conversation from the focus group will be transcribed.
