Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults 18 or older with an English-speaking UCSF ILD diagnosis (IPF, chronic hypersensitivity pneumonitis, connective-tissue disease–related ILD, sarcoidosis, or familial fibrosis) who can use home monitoring devices and complete electronic questionnaires.

Probably not a fit

Patients without access to compatible devices or English-language materials, or those who are acutely ill or unable to consent, may not benefit.

What this trial studies

This interventional study lasts 12 months and uses home-based tools to monitor lung function, oxygen levels, weight, and patient-reported outcomes. All participants perform weekly home spirometry, with some doing daily pulse oximetry and/or weekly weight measurements depending on assignment. Participants have in-person baseline and final visits at UCSF, with follow-up visits by Zoom at 3, 6, and 9 months, and remote assessments throughout. The goal is to identify which device combination provides feasible adherence, high retention, and complete data while enabling detection of clinically significant ILD events.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, patients could benefit from more convenient, continuous monitoring that may enable earlier detection of disease changes and timely care.

How similar studies have gone: Prior studies using home monitoring in ILD have shown potential feasibility and data collection benefits, supporting exploration of multiple device combinations.

Who can join: the full rules

Show full inclusion / exclusion criteria
Inclusion Criteria:

* age 18 or older
* English speaking
* have a UCSF diagnosis of one of the major ILD subtypes seen in the ILD Clinic (Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis, Chronic Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis, Connective-tissue disease related ILD, Sarcoidosis, Familial Fibrosis). Languages are limited to those for which both device instructional materials and user support are available (written and video). The ILD diagnosis will be based on multidisciplinary conference review, which is the diagnostic gold standard. We have restricted the ILD subtypes to those for which there is efficacy data for RPM or comparable clinical trajectories, and subtypes that account for \>10% of the ILD diagnoses seen at UCSF.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Patients who are unable provide informed consent for any reason or are acutely ill.
