Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Homecare patient support program especially designed for covering IPF patient needs, implemented for 12 months, for improving quality of life

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The proposed comprehensive IPF home care programme consists of: 1) improving patient's quality of life (autonomy, activity, emotional well-being and symptoms), 2) reducing the number and severity of side effects associated with the anti-fibrotic drug, 3) reducing the number of hospitalisations attributable to the disease, and 4) providing a rapid response to any problem associated with the disease (after diagnosis or progression) that may cause distress or require early action.

Exclusion Criteria

* Hospitalised patients or those who have been hospitalised in the previous month, due to any kind of respiratory exacerbation or due to any other respiratory cause.
