Application of Personalized Palliative Care in Patients With Newly Diagnosed Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This study aims to develop a tool that helps the medical-nursing team in the identification of the real palliative care needs of each individual patient. Patients with newly diagnosed Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis will be asked just a few simple questions in order to place them at the most appropriate level of palliative care (PC) even before the first medical contact. This would not only optimize resource allocation (e.g., allowing patients with low palliative needs to be assessed solely by the PC nurse), but also benefit patients who have difficulty leaving their homes by enabling them to receive evaluation and palliative care directly at home rather than after a hospital assessment.
