- Purpose: To describe the meaning of significant others in relation to participation in everyday life of persons with early diagnosed rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Materials and methods: Fifty-nine persons participated in this interview study. Inclusion criteria were three years’ experience of diagnosis and being of working age. Semi-structured interviews were conducted using critical incident technique (CIT), and the material was analysed using content analysis. Results: Four categories were revealed: (1) My early RA causes activity adaptations for us all, referring to the person and significant others modifying activities. (2) Making the significant others balance between shortfalls and participation, where the participants distinguished between needing help and feeling involved in activities. (3) Physical interactions with significant others, referring to both the problematic and manageable impact RA could have on body contact. (4) Emotions in relation to activities with others, where participants described feelings of failing others, and anxiety about future activities. Conclusions: For persons with early diagnosed RA, significant others can be both hindering and facilitating for participation in everyday life. As a clinical implication, it is valuable to identify how significant others can be involved in the rehabilitation process, to enhance participation in everyday life early in the disease process.Implications for rehabilitation Significant others of persons with rheumatoid arthritis can facilitate as well as hinder participation in everyday life, even early in the disease process. It is important to include the significant others in the rehabilitation process of persons with early diagnosed rheumatoid arthritis. It is of great importance to identify when and how significant others can be facilitators of participation in everyday life for persons with early rheumatoid arthritis. To make it easier for significant others to facilitate participation, there is a need for the healthcare system to explore ways to support significant others with easily accessible information about early rheumatoid arthritis.
