Abstract

Breathing patterns were measured in people with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Resting ventilation rate increased with worsening disease severity and declining lung function. These changes were associated with increased breathlessness and cough severity. These data show a quantifiable link between symptoms and disease severity potentially allowing improved IPF management.
