| Core Tip |
Involving patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in their disease by home-monitoring of disease activity, has been shown to bring patients with IBD significantly faster in remission relative to standard care, however, the optimal way to home-monitor patients with IBD for disease progression or relapse remains to be found. We randomized 102 patients with IBD to screen for disease activity either every third mo or whenever the patients felt a need for screening on the ibd.constant-care.com web-application for one year. We found that the two screening procedures were equally good in capturing a relapse and bringing about remission. |
