To update the recommendations for the treatment of Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) with biological therapies, endorsed by the Portuguese Society of Rheumatology (SPR).
These treatment recommendations were formulated by Portuguese rheumatologists based on literature evidence and consensus opinion. At a national meeting the 10 recommendations were discussed and updated. The document resulting from this meeting circulated to all Portuguese rheumatologists, who anonymously voted online on the level of agreement with the recommendations.
These recommendations cover general aspects as shared decision, prospective registry in Reuma.pt, assessment of activity and RA impact and treatment objective. Consensus was also achieved regarding specific aspects as initiation of biologic therapy, assessment of response, switching and definition of persistent remission.
These recommendations may be used for guidance of treatment with biological therapies in patients with RA. As more evidence becomes available and more therapies are licensed, these recommendations will be updated.
更新由葡萄牙风湿病学会（SPR）认可的类风湿关节炎（RA）生物治疗的推荐意见。
这些治疗推荐意见由葡萄牙风湿病学家根据文献证据和共识意见制定。在一次全国性会议上对10条推荐意见进行了讨论和更新。此次会议形成的文件分发给了所有葡萄牙风湿病学家，他们在网上对这些推荐意见的认同程度进行了匿名投票。
这些推荐意见涵盖了共同决策、在Reuma.pt进行前瞻性登记、活动度和RA影响评估以及治疗目标等一般方面。在生物治疗的起始、反应评估、换药以及持续缓解的定义等具体方面也达成了共识。
这些推荐意见可用于指导RA患者的生物治疗。随着更多证据的出现以及更多疗法获得许可，这些推荐意见将得到更新。
