AbstractTotal management of rheumatic disorders of children includes antiinflammatory drugs, active therapy, maintenance of ADLs, and attention to the psychosocial development of the child. This article focuses on the role that physical and occupational therapists play in the management of children with arthritis. The complexity of the problems of these children necessitates a multidisciplinary team approach, with professionals who are committed to helping the child lead as normal a life as possible. This objective can be accomplished only by teaching families and school personnel how to manage the child's daily therapeutic needs.
