The first foot heath guideline from the British Society for Rheumatology (BSR) is provides evidence-based guidance on the management and care of foot health in inflammatory arthritis (IA) for adults, children and young people.

As a whole life-course guideline, it provides recommendations to improve the quality and consistency of care across the MDT for all ages.

The guideline was developed by members from rheumatology as well as a wider working group made up of experts by experience, podiatrists, physiotherapists, orthotists, general practitioners, orthopaedic surgeons, and specialist rheumatology nurses.

The guideline marks the first BSR guideline to be published that has been developed in a collaboration with the School of Medicine at Keele University, who are supporting the evidence reviews of several BSR guidelines.

Endorsed by Royal College of Podiatry, the guideline also has a lay summary which can be read on our website.
