Overview

1. To assess the feasibility and utility of a remote monitoring platform for rural ILD patients. 
2. To assess adherence and attitudes of rural patients to home spirometry requiring a web application. 
3. To determine time spent reviewing the data portal by the medical team.  

Description

Baseline home spirometry measurements will be considered those obtained during the day 0 and day 7 of the study period. Participants will be asked to perform home spirometry that will be compared to the clinic-performed spirometry for internal validity and reproducibility. Spirometry readings outside 1 and 99% of the aggregated group data will be excluded as outlier and considered substandard blows.
