Types
• Childhood Arthritis• Fibromyalgia• General• Gout• Osteoarthritis• Rheumatoid Arthritis• Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE or lupus)• Traumatic arthritis
Types
Symptoms
• Pain• aching, stiffness• swelling in or around the joints. • Some forms of arthritis, such as rheumatoid
arthritis and lupus, can affect multiple organs and cause widespread symptoms.
Diagnosis
• If symptoms persist for more than 2 weeks a doctors appointment should be made.
• The doctor should do an exam that includes medical history, lab test and x-rays
Prevalence
• A new study from CDC reports that 50 million U.S. adults have arthritis
• Overall Osteoarthritis affects an estimated 26.9 million US adults
• Rheumatoid Arthritis affects an estimated 1.5 million US adults
• Juvenile arthritis affects 294,000 children, • Systemic lupus erythematosus affects from
161,000 to 322,000 adults
Prevalence
Virginia
Age
• Although arthritis is more common among adults aged 65 years or older, people of all ages (including children) can be affected. Nearly two-thirds of people with arthritis are younger than age 65 years
Race• Non-Hispanic White • 23.8%• Non-Hispanic Black • 19.4%• Hispanic • 11.1%• American Indian/Alaska Native • 25.2%• Asian/Pacific Islander • 8.4%• Multiracial/Other • 20.7%
Gender
• The prevalence of arthritis is higher in women than in men
Incidence
• For juvenile arthritis :4,800–11,000 new cases in the United States in 2003
• Hand Osteoarthritis : 100 per 100000• Hip Osteoarthritis : 88 per 100000• Knee Osteoarthritis : 240 per 100000• For Rheumatoid Arthritis: 41 per 100,000
people a year
Disability
• Annually over 21 million Americans indicate that their arthritis has limited their physical activity and mobility
• Which is why arthritis is considered the leading cause of disability in the United States.

Mortality• Patients with chronic arthritis have a greater risk
of mortality because they are more prone to infection, renal disease, and respiratory conditions
• The female mortality rate for women with Rheumatoid Arthritis is 2.4 deaths per 100000 people per year
• Male mortality rate for men with Rheumatoid Arthritis for men was 2.5 deaths per 100000

Risk Factors
• Age• Gender• Genetic• Overweight and Obesity• Joint Injuries• Infection• Occupation
Costs
• In 2005, the total expenditures among U.S. adults with arthritis was $353 billion .
Costs
Prevention/Treatment
• Behavioral/Lifestyle Changes - Diet/Weight Control
- Physical Activity• Injury Prevention
- Take precautions to avoid repetitive joint use and resulting joint injury- Use injury prevention strategies like warm ups to avoid joint injuries and damage to ligaments and cartilage
Prevention/Treatment
• Use hot and cold compresses on joints for short-term pain relief
• Topical Pain Relievers• Anti-inflammatory Painkillers (NSAIDs)• Steroids• Hyaluronan Injections• Disease-Modifying Antirheumatic Drugs
(DMARDs)
Intervention Programs
• Chronic Disease Self-Management Program (CDSMP)
• Active Living Every Day (ALED)• Arthritis Foundation Aquatic Program(AFAP)• Chronic Disease Self-Management Program
(CDSMP)• Arthritis Foundation Exercise Program(AFEP)• Arthritis Self-Management Program (ASMP)
