Abstract

In the current available literature, there is strong evidence about the benefits of physical activity (PA) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). PA has shown an improvement in the disease activity that contributes to increase stability and joint strength, promoting a sense of well-being and reducing the symptoms of anxiety and depression, which are often associated with chronic diseases. The aim of this study is to relate the levels of PA in patients with RA under biological treatment and disease activity. Secondarily we intend to increase the educational role of the family doctor in the management of these patients.
