Health Economic Impact of Steroids
Sponsor: University of the West of England
Summary
Three focus groups will be conducted with patients who have an inflammatory rheumatic condition and have been treated with steroids in the last three years to discuss the impact of steroids on their quality of life, the financial costs to them and costs to the NHS and social care. We will also ask people to give their thoughts on a general patient reported outcome (PRO) questionnaire (the EQ5D) and a steroid-specific questionnaire (the Steroid PRO).
