Details and patient eligibility

About

The Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) affects joints mobility and leads pain, impacting the practice of physical activities. Adapted Physical Activities are rehabilitation methods increasingly used, but additional studies are needed to define the nature of the physical activity for patients with JIA. The ATHLETIQUE project aims to evaluate the impact of a program integrating APA sessions together with the wearing of a pedometer watch on disease activity of patients with JIA.
