Activity Overview

Rheum2Learn 2.0 is case-based fundamental clinical rheumatology education for residents. Each interactive activity includes three patient cases that focus on the care and assessment of individuals with rheumatologic diseases. The included activities use interactive patient cases to simulate clinical scenarios commonly encountered in primary care, inpatient, and critical care settings. Learners are guided to recognize disease patterns, build differential diagnoses, select appropriate tests, and develop treatment strategies in collaboration with rheumatology specialists. Key topics span rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, crystalline arthritis, osteoarthritis, myopathies, systemic sclerosis, pediatric rheumatology, infectious arthritis, osteoporosis, and vasculitis. 

See below for a complete list of the 15 included activities.


Rheum2Learn Series

This activity is part of a series. See the other activities in the series below.

Registration is complimentary.


Target Audience

Residents in training who may provide care for patients with rheumatic diagnoses in primary care, inpatient, critical care, and other clinical contexts.

The activity may also be of interest to medical students, fellows in training, advanced practice providers, practicing physicians, and other health care professionals who seek to strengthen their clinical knowledge of rheumatic diseases.


Learning Objectives

Upon completion of this activity, participants should be able to:

  • Recognize disease patterns using clinical data and patient history.
  • Formulate a comprehensive differential diagnosis based on disease patterns and diagnostic clues.
  • Select appropriate diagnostic tests and labs to narrow down the diagnosis.
  • Develop treatment strategies in collaboration with rheumatology specialists.

See individual activities (linked above) for activity-specific learning objectives.

Rheum2Learn 2.0: Musculoskeletal Disorders

In this activity, explore diverse patient presentations with widespread or regional musculoskeletal pain. Participants will learn to differentiate clinical patterns and approaches to diagnosis and treatment for conditions such as polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR), fibromyalgia, and joint hypermobility syndromes.

Rheum2Learn 2.0: Spondyloarthritis

In this activity, learn how to recognize symptoms and physical exam findings associated with spondyloarthritis. Explore the evaluation and management of conditions such as axial spondyloarthritis, psoriatic arthritis, and reactive arthritis, with attention to associated features like uveitis.

Rheum2Learn 2.0: Crystalline Arthritis

Crystalline arthritis can manifest in diverse clinical settings such as primary care offices, urgent care facilities, or hospital wards. Therefore, it is crucial to ensure accurate diagnosis and apply appropriate treatment algorithms. This activity provides an opportunity for participants to recognize the clinical presentations, interpret test results, list differential diagnosis, and enumerate treatment options for patients with crystalline arthritis.

Rheum2Learn 2.0: Infectious Arthritis

Learn how to recognize the clinical presentations, interpret test results, list differential diagnosis, and enumerate treatment options for patients with infectious arthritis.

Rheum2Learn 2.0: Inflammatory Myopathies

Learn how to identify clinical manifestations, interpret test results, and develop a differential diagnosis and treatment plan for patients with inflammatory myopathies. 

Rheum2Learn 2.0: Osteoarthritis

Practice identifying clinical manifestations, interpreting X-rays, and developing a differential diagnosis and treatment plan for patients with osteoarthritis of the knee, spine, and hand.

Rheum2Learn 2.0: Osteoporosis

Learn the framework to evaluate bone health and determine the steps for screening, diagnosing, and managing patients with osteopenia and osteoporosis.

Rheum2Learn 2.0: Pediatric Rheumatology

Learn how to examine, diagnose, and implement a patient-centered approach for three children with rheumatic conditions and their families.

Rheum2Learn 2.0: Rheumatic Manifestations of Systemic Disease

This activity provides an opportunity for participants to work through identification of clinical manifestations, interpretation of test results, and differential diagnosis and treatment options for patients with diabetic cheiroarthropathy, sarcoidosis, and inflammatory bowel disease associated spondyloarthritis.

Rheum2Learn 2.0: Rheumatoid Arthritis

Learn how to identify clinical manifestations, interpret test results, and develop a differential diagnosis and treatment plan for patients with rheumatoid arthritis.

Rheum2Learn 2.0: Sjögren’s Disease

Learn both the oral and ocular symptoms, how to determine the need for differential diagnoses, and develop skills for building a patient care plan for patients with Sjögrens Disease.

Rheum2Learn 2.0: Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

The Rheum2Learn 2.0 - Systemic Lupus Erythematosus activity provides an opportunity for participants to work through identification of clinical manifestations, interpretation of test results, and differential diagnosis and treatment options for patients with SLE.

Rheum2Learn 2.0: Systemic Sclerosis

The Rheum2Learn 2.0 - Scleroderma is a challenging disease to manage as it affects multiple organ systems. Follow three mini cases that illustrate the diverse nature of the disease, providing you with valuable knowledge for the future.

Rheum2Learn 2.0: Systemic Vasculitis

From presentation to diagnosis to management strategies for vasculitis, these patient cases will give you comprehensive knowledge of vasculitis and how to provide compassionate and respectful care.

Rheum2Learn 2.0: Musculoskeletal Examination

In this activity, participants will learn how to complete a thorough musculoskeletal examination of the hand, shoulder and back.
