Strength training increases exercise tolerance in patients with intermittent claudication (Ritti-Dias et. al, 2010)
6MWT is strongly and indendently associated with an increased mortality rate for patients with Intersitial Pulmonary Fibrosis (Lederer et al. 2006)
Resistance and cardiovascular endurance training has been shown to improve systems and sustain treatment effects (Dowman et al, 2017)
The use of PPE may be beneficial in prevention and protection from dust and microbial exposure (Halstensen et al. 2007)
Chest expansion during deep breathing exercises may result in a more efficient breathing pattern, improved respiratory strength, enhanced pleural elasticity and pulmonary compliance (Vainshelboim, 2016)

Early referral for a multi-disciplinary evaluation is imperative for specialized care. (Oldham. 2014)
Participating in supervised exercise training program, in the short-term,
can improve exercise cardiovascular functions
among patients with IPF. (Vainshelboim, B., 2017)
