Abstract
In this article, scores used to assess the efficacy of treatments in the field of pediatric inflammatory rheumatisms are reviewed. In juvenile arthritis, assessment of treatment efficacy usually refers to the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) pediatric score (or Pediatric Rheumatology International Trial Organisation [PRINTO]), which has similarities with the ACR criteria used in adult rheumatoid arthritis. Other validated questionnaires include the child-HAQ. Discussions are ongoing regarding remission criteria for children. These scores are reviewed here.
