Brief Summary
The objective is to study the cognitive functions in patients with chronic obstructive lung disease (COLD) and patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD) compared to healthy controls. The cognitive functions are tested with and without oxygen therapy to clarify the effect of oxygen therapy. Driving simulations is used to test the cognitive functions. The hypothesis is that patients with chronic lung disease have decreased cognitive functions and that oxygen therapy will increase their cognitive functions.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (4)
Standard deviation from the centre of the road
Measuring how far from the centre of the road the patient has been driving in the driving simulation
During the 45 min. of driving in the simulator
Number of nil responses
Measuring the number of times the patients doesn't react to the number "2" on the screen
During the 45 min. of driving in the simulator
Response time
Measuring the mean amount of response time from the number "2" appears on the screen until the patient reacts
During the 45 min. of driving in the simulator
Number of off-road events per hour
The number of times the car is off-road during the driving simulation
During the 45 min. of driving in the simulator
Study Arms (4)
COLD without long term oxygen therapy
EXPERIMENTALDriving in the simulator two times, one time with and one time without oxygen therapy
COLD with long term oxygen therapy
EXPERIMENTALDriving in the simulator two times, one time with and one time without oxygen therapy
ILD without long term oxygen therapy
EXPERIMENTALDriving in the simulator two times, one time with and one time without oxygen therapy
Controls
NO INTERVENTIONDriving in the simulator one time without oxygen therapy

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- COLD with forced expiratory volume at one second (FEV1) \<50%, without long term oxygen therapy
- COLD with FEV1 \<50%, with long term oxygen therapy
- ILD with diffusion capacity of lung for carbon monoxide (DLCO) \< 50%, without long term oxygen therapy
You may not qualify if:
- comorbidity which decreases cognitive function
- comorbidity which decreases concentration
- physical comorbidity which makes it impossible to complete the test
