Reimagining Interventions for Support and Education in Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis

Recruiting now · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Hypersensitivity Pneumonitis

In brief

The central hypothesis is that a peer coach-delivered intervention that includes cognitive behavioral principles combined with theory-driven patient education will improve health-related quality of life (HRQOL) of patients with hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP). The goal of this behavioral and educational intervention, RISE-HP, is to improve health-related quality of life in people who have hypersensitivity pneumonitis and assess feasibility and accessibility of this intervention. Patients with hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) experience uncertainty, feelings of anxiety and depression, and marked disruption to their lifestyle and home environment. Poor health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in HP is also driven in part by patients' profound lack of knowledge about the disease. Existing interventions for patients with HP do not target improvement in quality of life. Participants will complete either RISE-HP, a 10-session peer coach delivered behavioral and educational intervention to improve HRQOL in HP, or Staying Well, a 10-session general health education program.
