The PFF Registry has accomplished a lot in a short time, including raising awareness and advancing research. The new PFF Community Registry will provide an even clearer picture of the true impact of PF and ILD by gathering meaningful information from patients, lung transplant recipients, caregivers, and family members.

Junelle Speller, MBA
Vice President, PFF Registry

By leveraging the data in the Registry and partnering with our Care Center Network sites, we can really start to figure out what are important and essential elements to patient care and learn from one another. I truly believe that we will be able to figure out what care elements/factors will help our patients live better and longer lives with their pulmonary fibrosis.

Researchers are eager to study the causes, treatments, and impact of pulmonary fibrosis and interstitial lung disease. The Registry follows thousands of people for as long as they are able to participate. This means huge amounts of data are available for researchers to test.

Joseph Lasky, MD
PFF Chief Medical Officer
Tulane University Medical School

Our patients living with pulmonary fibrosis, their families who support them, and the health care providers who care for them all deserve high-quality comprehensive data that informs their health decisions. We at the data coordinating center never forget that there is a real person behind every statistic in the PFF Registry, and that knowledge drives us forward every day.
