Video exercise therapy for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests whether telerehabilitation (supervised exercise/therapy by video or remote tools) can help people with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) improve breathing and function. You may be able to take part if your condition has been stable and you haven’t recently done a pulmonary rehab program.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 75 years old.

- You get short of breath with activity (breathing gets harder when you exert yourself).
- Your health has been stable for the last 4 weeks, with no flare-ups or infections.
