Defining remission for psoriatic arthritis is challenging.

Understanding how patients with psoriatic arthritis define remission can inform efforts to define remission for psoriatic arthritis.

This study sought to understand patient-defined remission for psoriatic arthritis and identify factors associated with patient-reported psoriatic arthritis remission.

Study results suggest that patient perceived psoriatic arthritis remission is experiencing acceptable disease state (PsAID-9 ≤ 4), perception of psoriasis remission, lower impact of PsA on global quality of life, and non-white race.

Our study highlights that psoriatic arthritis remission is multifactorial and patient-dependent.

Patient-defined psoriatic arthritis remission is linked with patient perception of skin disease and psoriatic arthritis impact on quality of life.
