An Introduction to PIFU (Patient Initiated Follow-Up)
Patient Initiated Follow-Up (PIFU) pathways are not new although have not been commonly used. You might have heard of them as Direct Access Clinics or Patient Initiated Return pathways. However, these types of follow-up pathways are being very widely introduced across all conditions including rheumatology.
NRAS is supporting a research team who are conducting a clinical trial on PIFU across many hospital sites in the UK to gather more evidence about how this is working. As part of this work, the team have produced this video, which gives a short introduction into what PIFU is and what it entails.
To find out more about PIFU, visit: nras.org.uk/pifu
This video was funded by a grant from the British Society for Rheumatology.

    First of all I am extremely grateful to the charity for providing this information it is invaluable in tackling this disease. However I do feel that as a lay person looking for information much of this video was too scientific and was geared to medical professionals looking to advise perhaps on dietary health. It was for me far too complex and wordy. Please consider that not every one of your viewers will have an in depth knowledge of nutrition.

    That's exactly what I thought when I got diagnosed at 29 years old. I am now 65 years old, 1 baby, it was a shock. I had weave my way through so much by myself as the year was 1987, not much advice around and certainly no help groups, until much later. Luckily, I had a positive attitude, but it certainly took my positivity to high limits. The medications are so much better now for RA, but that has been quite the journey.

    Sorry that I missed the livestream, but would like to ask a question. I was due to have a biologics nurse appointment in January 2024. I had received notification from the hospital that it was cancelled & I would receive further information, I think. I’m aware of the new “PIFU” (patient informed follow up) through yourselves. As I have other conditions & a serious one since 2022, struggle to keep up with many blood tests & other appointments. I have found myself thinking, do I still need to be on the Biologics injections, will the nurse or hospital contact me if something changes? It can be hard to get hold of specialist nurses at the hospital😭

    This is really moving. I think it does such a good job of showing the idea that when you live with fatigue, even simple tasks really drain your energy levels. I also think many will relate to the idea that often, you will make it through the working day with pain and fatigue, and sadly it is then the social events that suffer.

    Dr.Bruce Fife recommends swishing coconut oil in the mouth on an empty stomach for 12 minutes each day/ The coconut oil captures bacteria viruses in the mouth that go through the pores in the teeth into the body. The oil is spat out after 12 minutes. Having less of these disease agents entering the body gives a chance for the body not to be overwhelmed by bacteria etc. that cause the rheumatism and gives it a better chance of ridding the body of that which causes rheumatism and arthritis.
