The Interface Between Digital Health and Rheumatology

Technology is effecting a sea of change in both health care research and the practice of clinical medicine. In this technology-focused issue of Rheumatic Disease Clinics of North America, we have assembled a cadre of reports that illustrate the wide breadth of examples by which technology is transforming both research methods and clinical practice in rheumatology. Many of these articles were borne out of presentations given at the 2018 American College of Rheumatology (ACR) premeeting clinical research conference (CRC), “Application of Mobile Health Technologies.” The ACR and its membership continue to maintain high interest in digital health, as illustrated by the fact that the 2019 ACR preconference CRC topic is “Big Data: Analytics, Electronic Medical Records, Registries, and Beyond.”
