An International Patient-led Registry in Fibrotic Interstitial Lung Diseases Using eHealth Technology
Sponsor: Erasmus Medical Center
Summary
The I-FILE study is a prospective multicenter, multinational observational study where the feasibility of a patient-led registry using home monitoring in patients with pulmonary fibrosis will be evaluated. The aim of the study is to gain more insights in disease behavior in patients with pulmonary fibrosis, so in future patients with progressive disease can be better identified.
