  • Summary

  • Psoriatic arthritis may seem like an obscure condition, but it affects more people than many primary healthcare practitioners may realise. An estimated 200,000 Australians are living with psoriatic arthritis, with symptoms of painful 'flare-ups' that can range from mild to debilitating. It also may be affecting much younger patients than you would expect, with the onset of symptoms generally occurring between the ages of 30 and 50. While the condition isn't curable, there are treatments available to limit the impact on your patient's quality of life.

    Join NQRTH Round Up host, Dr Elissa Hatherly, as she discusses all things psoriatic arthritis with Dr Anna Kermond, a rheumatology registrar in Cairns. Dr Kermond covers a variety of important topics, including: prevalence, diagnosis, co-morbidities and next steps for treatment.
