Study Completion

EstimatedPlanned date reported by the registry; this milestone is not confirmed as achieved.
The investigators plan to conduct a study to find out if giving portable oxygen therapy (during physical activity) to patients with interstitial lung disease will improve quality of life, exercise tolerance, shortness of breath, and blood vessel function. Oxygen will be provided for a period of 8 weeks. Additionally, the investigators plan to investigate if it is helpful to deliver individualized support when providing oxygen therapy, through check-in phone calls with a respiratory therapist and by providing additional educational material.

Actual (reported)Palliation of Dyspnea and Cough using Morphine in patients with Fibrotic Interstitial Lung Disease
Participants will receive disease-specific educational material (Living Well with Pulmonary Fibrosis: Oxygen), and will have scheduled phone appointments with a certified respiratory educator after 1, 3, and 5 weeks of oxygen therapy in order to address individual barriers to oxygen use and facilitate the optimal use of portable oxygen.
