Hispanics are affected by arthritis at a slightly lower age-adjusted rate compared to
non-Hispanic whites and African Americans. However, compared to other groups, Hispanics have
a higher prevalence of arthritis-attributed activity limitations (primarily related to OA),
are less likely to receive hip replacement independent of health care access, and are less
likely to receive knee replacement. The study is conducted to develop and test a telephone
delivered intervention for the management of OA in Hispanic adults. This study is conducted
as a minority supplement to the Patient and Provider Interventions for Managing
Osteoarthritis in Primary Care (PRIMO) NCT01435109 and Pro00022836.

Arthritis affects approximately 50 million adults in the United States (US), making it one
of the most common causes of disability in this county. In addition, is associated with
significant physical activity limitations, increased prevalence of obesity, decreased health
related quality of life, and increased health care costs. Hispanics are affected by
arthritis at a slightly lower age-adjusted rate compared to non-Hispanic whites and African
Americans. However, compared to other groups, Hispanics have a higher prevalence of
arthritis-attributed activity limitations (primarily related to OA), are less likely to
receive hip replacement independent of health care access, and are less likely to receive
knee replacement. In addition, there have been very few interventions to improve either
medical or behavioral aspects of OA treatment recommendations among the Hispanic population.
The study will developed and test a culturally appropriate Spanish educational materials and
telephone scripts for the patient- and provider-based interventions and will test the
patient and provider intervention in a group of Adult Hispanics with OA.
