[Rheumatoid arthritis: an evaluation of treatment efficacy and some aspects of the physician-patient dyad].
The contribution of conventional therapeutic factors and such factors as psychotherapy, psychotropic drugs, psychological characteristics of the dyad "physician-patient" to overall treatment efficacy was measured in 111 patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Among non-traditional factors psychocorrection proved most effective. The skill of the physician to communicate with the patient, to inform him or her about the disease was found unsatisfactory. Special training in medical education to communicate with the patient is needed.
