Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a disease in which constant and persistent pain syndrome accompanies the patient almost throughout his life. The clinical picture of the disease is dominated by the defeat of the joints, however, upon careful examination, lesions of other organs are almost always revealed. Despite the advances in RA therapy, there are many difficulties in providing effective care to RA patients.

Sooner or later, conventional therapy leads many patients, and even treating doctors, to disappointment, since sometimes it does not give the expected positive result. Purpose of work: analysis of the diagnostic and therapeutic capabilities of the AIC “IMEDIS-FALL” in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.
