Abstract

Background/Purpose: Data from before the COVID-19 pandemic had shown persistently poor care for people with gout in many countries worldwide. Whether this was further exacerbated by the pandemic is not fully understood. Our objective was to investigate the impact of the pandemic on consultations and care quality for people with gout in England, using the OpenSAFELY Trusted Research Environment.
