Can patients with rheumatoid arthritis examine their own joints? 

Dr David Liew talks to Dr Charlotte Sharp and Karen Staniland about their work to create a video teaching patients how to self-examine tender and swollen joints. 

Charlotte is now a consultant rheumatologist based in Manchester and has an interest in applied health research. Karen is the patient and public involvement lead for the REMORA project and has rheumatoid arthritis. Their paper was a winning entry to the 2023 Rheumatology Advances in Practice Trainee Publishing Programme.
