Answer:

  • A straight-back armchair: allows the hips and shoulders to be against the back of the chair while fully supporting the thighs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic, autoimmune, inflammatory disease in which symmetric involvement of multiple joints occurs. This can cause significant physical limitations and therefore a deterioration in the quality of life.
