Gout is one of the most common inflammatory arthritides. The disease is due to the deposition of monosodium urate crystals. These deposits are reversible with proper treatment, suggesting that gout is a curable disease. The main aim in gout is to lower serum uric acid levels to a pre-established target; there are different urate-lowering drugs (xanthine oxidase inhibitors, uricosurics and uricases) through which this can be achieved. Proper treatment of gout also involves correct management of acute flares and their prevention. To ensure treatment adherence it is necessary to explain to the patient what the objectives are.
痛风是最常见的炎性关节炎之一。该病是由于尿酸钠晶体沉积所致。通过适当治疗,这些沉积物是可逆的,这表明痛风是一种可治愈的疾病。痛风治疗的主要目标是将血清尿酸水平降至预先设定的目标;有不同的降尿酸药物(黄嘌呤氧化酶抑制剂、促尿酸排泄药和尿酸酶)可实现这一目标。痛风的恰当治疗还包括对急性发作的正确管理及其预防。为确保患者坚持治疗,有必要向患者解释治疗目标。
