Abstract Background Intraarticular corticosteroid injection (IACI) is one of the most common treatments in oligoarticular Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA). Activity recommendations following injection vary, as there are no published studies on splinting JIA patients post-IACI (splinting is a form of rest). Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children (TSRH) splints patients post-IACI for 24 h while The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) does not. The aim of this study was to compare the number of cases of recurrent arthritis following IACI between these two post-injection practices. Methods Data were retrospectively collected at CHOP and TSRH. Patients diagnosed with oligoarticular JIA according to International League of Associations for Rheumatology (ILAR) criteria (2nd revision, 2001) between 2008 and 2010 were included. Bivariate analysis (Wilcoxon rank-sum tests, chi-squared tests) was run to assess differences in outcomes by site. Inverse probability of treatment weighted Cox regression was employed to adjust for site differences. Results The population at TSRH was younger than at CHOP (p |
