Participate in Research
Research study participants play a crucial role in arthritis research, and much of the research completed at Arthritis Research Canada is made possible by the generous contribution of time by people like you. There are many opportunities for you to become involved; however, some patients are hesitant because they believe that all research studies are invasive. The truth is that some studies can be as simple as taking a survey, testing an interactive website or having a knee exam. And remember, your privacy and confidentiality are always protected.
Opportunities for you to get involved:
Co-développement d’un modèle flexible de prestation de soins pour l’arthrite (FlexCAre)
Vous souhaitez participer à arthrite recherche et contribuer à changer la façon dont les soins de l’arthrite sont prodigués aux personnes vivant avec des types d’arthrite inflammatoire ? L’ étude FlexCare recrute actuellement.
Co-developing a Flexible Care Delivery Model for Arthritis (FlexCAre)
Want to participate in research? This recruitment is aimed to finding people living with inflammatory types of arthritis to hold discussion groups and gather their input into the design of the FlexCAre model.
Linking biomechanical and imaging outcomes to better understand the effects of running on knee joint health
Physical activity has been widely recognized as an important treatment approach for knee osteoarthritis (OA); however, little is known about the effects of running with this condition. Previous studies have suggested healthy knee cartilage has the ability to become stronger immediately after running in the short-term, but it remains unclear if unhealthy knee cartilage would react the same.
