TARISMA

Project lead: Prof. Carsten Oliver Schmidt

Project researchers: Prof. Jean-François Chenot, Dr. Elisa Kasbohm, Dr. Julia Truthmann

The overall aim of the TARISMA network (Targeted Risk Management in Musculoskeletal Diseases) is to identify risk factors for inadequate care of people with inflammatory and non-inflammatory musculoskeletal diseases and to develop approaches for better care of specific risk groups. The common research question is what influence vulnerable life phases or multimorbidity have on the course of care and the utilisation of care services, and how any possible resultant underuse can be countered.
