When to Use

When to Use

Classification of adult patients with suspected Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA).

Evaluating patients with at least one joint with definite clinical synovitis (swelling).

Standardizing clinical trial enrollment and early DMARD initiation.

Prerequisites

The criteria should only be applied if synovitis is not better explained by another disease (e.g., SLE, Psoriatic Arthritis, Gout, CPPD). If the patient has typical erosions on X-ray, RA can be diagnosed without further scoring.
