Summary

Patients with some long-standing rheumatic diseases have stated that they want to be fully informed about their disease as they find it 'more scary not to know' about possible complications and consequences. Patients who have the information they want about their disease can fully take part in decisions about their own health creating a partnership with their doctor. Sjögren's Syndrome (SS) is a multi-system, long-standing rheumatic disease that has a negative impact on the daily life of patients. A common presentation of this disease is dry mouth, which can make talking, eating and swallowing more difficult.

Project aims: We aim to ask patients with SS what information they think it would be important to know about SS. We plan to create a questionnaire that can be used by doctors to help deliver the right information to patients at hospital visits.

Timescale: This project will take 36 months to complete. Clinical relevance: This questionnaire could be used in daily practice. It could help patients cope with their disease, take part in treatment decision and reduced uncertainty and distress.
