Nurse-led telehealth for gout management
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Genetic & congenital, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This trial tests whether nurse-led telehealth visits can help people with gout maintain healthy urate levels. If you have gout and are already on medication like allopurinol, this study may offer a convenient way to manage your condition from home.

This study tests whether using a smartphone or tablet to monitor your gout from home can help manage the condition. You may qualify if you have had at least one gout flare in the last year and have high uric acid levels.
This trial checks if testing for a specific gene (HLA-B*58:01) before starting gout medication can prevent severe allergic reactions. It compares standard care with a gene-guided approach to see which is safer and works better.
This study tests whether a smartphone app can help your doctor monitor your gout and adjust your urate-lowering medication. It is a feasibility study, meaning it checks if the approach works well for patients.
This study compares two different treatment goals for a blood level called urate in people with gout. The goal is to see which approach lowers gout flares better while helping people feel better.
This study tests whether a “tighter” gout treatment plan guided through a smartphone app can reduce gout flare-ups compared with usual care. It may help people whose uric acid levels are still high despite treatment.
This study tests whether a pharmacist-led program can help veterans with gout better manage their uric acid levels using common medications like allopurinol or febuxostat. If you have had a gout flare in the last 6 months and are already taking or starting a urate-lowering medication, this trial may be for you.
