Clinical Trials

Overview

About this study

Chronic fibrosing interstitial lung disease has significant negative impact on functional status and quality of life through often progressive and debilitating symptom burden. Prior studies have used various surveillance tools for assessing patient reported parameters and attested to the utility of these measurements for directing therapy and predicting outcome. We hypothesize that directed prospective measurements of such physiologic, emotional, and psychologic domains may correlate with baseline or presenting functional parameter and be incorporated into disease progression or staging models, perhaps capable of predicting outcomes as well as be targets of directed medical and non-medical therapies.
