Summary

Objective: To evaluate the correlation / association between inflammatory ultrasonography findings and clinical /functional assessment in symptomatic hand OA interphalangeal joints (IP). To evaluate the intra and interobserver reproducibility of ultrasound findings.

Methods: It was conducted a prospective study in 60 symptomatic hand OA patients. They were assessed in six times (T0, T1, T4, T8, T12 and T48 weeks) by "blind" observers (clinical and ultrasonography). The intra and interobserver reproducibility analysis was performed in 25% of the sample. Differences were considered as statistically significant when p\< 0.05.
