Abstract

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive, often underdiagnosed interstitial lung disease with a poor prognosis. Nurse practitioners are positioned to improve outcomes through understanding the environmental exposures in their communities, screening and early detection, and comprehensive care that includes mitigating exposure risks. This report outlines environmental and occupational risk factors, screening strategies, and the importance of patient partnership and multidisciplinary management. By understanding how IPF presents, and identifying exposures and exposure risks, nurse practitioners can make a big difference in both disease incidence and the clinical outcomes for patients with IPF.
护士执业指南:特发性肺纤维化的环境风险
特发性肺纤维化(IPF)是一种进行性、常被误诊的间质性肺疾病,预后较差。执业护士的定位是通过了解社区环境暴露、筛查和早期发现以及包括降低暴露风险在内的综合护理来改善结果。本报告概述了环境和职业风险因素,筛查策略,以及患者伙伴关系和多学科管理的重要性。通过了解IPF如何表现,识别暴露和暴露风险,执业护士可以对IPF患者的发病率和临床结果产生重大影响。
