Are rheumatologists’ treatment decisions influenced bypatients’ age? Objectives. The objective of this study was to determine whether physicians’ treatment preferences are influenced bypatients’ age.
Methods. We mailed a survey to a random sample of rheumatologists practicing in the US. The survey included a scenariodescribing a hypothetical patient with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) on hydroxychloroquine, sulfasalazine and low-dose prednisolone,who presents with active disease during a follow-up appointment. The scenario was formulated in two versions that were identical except for the age of the patient. After reading the scenario, respondents were asked to rate (on a 10 cm numericalrating scale) their recommendations for each of the three options: (i) increasing the dose of prednisolone, (ii) adding a newdisease-modifying anti-rheumatic drug (DMARD) and (iii) switching DMARDs. Rheumatologists who rated either adding anew DMARD or switching DMARDs higher than increasing the dose of prednisolone were classified as ‘preferring aggressivetreatment with DMARDs’, while the others were classified as ‘NOT preferring aggressive treatment with DMARDs’.
Results. A total of 480 rheumatologists were mailed a questionnaire; 204 responded, giving a response rate of 42.5%.
Overall 163 (80%) respondents were classified as preferring aggressive treatment with DMARDs. Rheumatologists respondingto this survey were more likely to prefer aggressive DMARD treatment for the young RA patient vs the older RA patient(87 vs 71%, P ¼ 0.007).
Conclusions. Our findings suggest that rheumatologists’ treatment recommendations may be influenced by age. Futureeducational efforts should increase physician awareness of this possible bias in order to ensure equal service delivery across ages.

Current treatment guidelines for patients with rheumatoid comparable disease severity. This discrepancy in the delivery of arthritis (RA) emphasize the need for aggressive management of healthcare has been demonstrated in diverse areas including active disease with one or more disease-modifying anti-rheumatic oncology [6, 7] and cardiovascular disease [8, 9], but has not been drugs (DMARDs) [1]. This recommendation is based on a body of well studied in RA. Given this background, the objective of this literature demonstrating that aggressive treatment is associated study was to determine whether, after controlling for other with better long-term outcomes [1]. There is no evidence that the patient-related factors, rheumatologists’ treatment preferences are overall benefits of DMARD therapy are related to patients’ age.

We chose to examine the influence of patients’ Yet, a large, population-based study found that the time to initiate age on physicians’ practices using standardized scenarios because DMARD therapy was longer, and the number of DMARDs this method provides a controlled experimental setting in which received was less for older vs younger patients [2]. Similarly, we were able to manipulate the variable of interest (i.e. age) while Tuntucu et al. [3] recently found that older RA patients with controlling for other important confounders.

A small, single-sitestudy, however, found no differences in types of DMARDs used Lower utilization of DMARD therapy among older patients may be due to patients’ and/or physicians’ treatment preferences.
We mailed a survey to a random sample of rheumatologists Regarding the former, older patients may be more risk averse practicing adult rheumatology in the US. The random sample was and less willing to accept the risk of drug toxicity compared with obtained by assigning a number to consecutive rheumatologists younger patients. Patients’ perceptions of physicians’ treatment practicing adult rheumatology listed in the American College recommendations have also been shown to differ with age, and of Rheumatology Directory. From this list, a random sample may help explain why older patients receive less aggressive care was obtained using a random number table. The survey consisted [5]. Alternatively, differences in the use of DMARDs across age of a scenario describing a hypothetical patient with RA on groups may be due, in part, to age bias.
