OSTEOARTHRITIS AND GOAPPS

Worldwide, osteoarthritis affects more than 595 million people, and it is estimated that this figure will double in the next three decades.

It is essential to understand patients’ needs and opinions in order to make future care and treatment options more effective. With this goal in mind, the OA Patients Force international working group has initiated the Global Osteoarthritis Patient Perception Survey (GOAPPS), focusing on the Quality of Life of osteoarthritis patients in different countries, in the second edition of which we invite you to participate.

The GOAPPS global survey will help us to better understand the needs of osteoarthritis patients. From the OAFI Foundation and AECOSAR, who are part of the OA Patients Force, have played an active role in the creation and development of the survey.
