A review was carried out in the SCOPUS database, selecting relevant articles published between January 2020 and March 2023. The methodology consisted of five stages and analysis tools such as VOSviewer, Excel and Scopus were used. The results of the literature review indicated that the pandemic has increased the need to implement technologies in the healthcare of patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Telemedicine and remote monitoring were highlighted as valuable tools for monitoring and controlling patients during this period. The integration of technology into the care of patients with rheumatoid arthritis during the COVID-19 pandemic is considered a significant improvement in quality of life and disease management.
