BENITHA, R et al. South African Rheumatism and Arthritis Association 2024 guidelines for the management of peripheral spondyloarthritis. SAMJ, S. Afr. med. j. [online]. 2024, vol.114, n.10, pp.17-22. ISSN 2078-5135.  https://doi.org/10.7196/SAMJ.2024.v114i10.2669.

Peripheral spondyloarthritis (SpA) includes psoriatic arthritis (PsA), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD)-associated arthritis, reactive arthritis and undifferentiated peripheral SpA. These South African guidelines offer information on diagnosis, assessment and therapy of peripheral SpA. Emphasis is placed on a multidisciplinary team, and a treat-to-target strategy with escalation of therapy if the target of minimal or very low disease activity is achieved. Screening for and treatment of comorbidities are paramount.
