AB  - Objectives: In Denmark, patients with inflammatory arthritis (IA) have completed 
      patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) via touchscreens in the outpatient 
      clinic since 2006. However, current technology makes it possible for patients to 
      use their own smartphone via an application (app) developed for the Danish 
      Rheumatology Database (DANBIO). This study aims to evaluate the agreement of 
      PROMs between the DANBIO app and outpatient touchscreen in patients with 
      IA.Method: Patients with IA (rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, and axial 
      spondyloarthritis) were enrolled in a randomized, crossover, agreement study. 
      Participants answered PROMs through the two device types in a randomized order. 
      Differences in PROM scores with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were evaluated for 
      similarity according to prespecified equivalence margins.Results: The touchscreen 
      invitation was accepted by 138 patients. Sixty patients (20 with each diagnosis) 
      were included. The difference in Health Assessment Questionnaire Disability Index 
      between the two device types was -0.007 (95% CI -0.043 to 0.030); thus, 
      equivalence was demonstrated. In addition, all other PROMs obtained with the two 
      device types were equivalent, except for the Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease 
      Activity Index (BASDAI), which was within the limits of minimally clinically 
      important difference (MCID). In total, 78.3% preferred the DANBIO app.Conclusion: 
      In patients with IA, equivalence was demonstrated between two device types for 
      all PROMs except BASDAI; however, BASDAI was within the limits of the MCID. 
      Implementation of the DANBIO app is expected to optimize outpatient visits, 
      thereby improving healthcare for the individual patient and society.
