Brief summary: The aim of this study is to comprehensively evaluate the nutritional status of IPF patients and to evaluate the effectiveness of 3-month dietary counselling. In this study, the nutritional status of IPF patients followed in Atatürk Sanatorium Training and Research Hospital were comprehensively evaluated.

A comprehensive assessment were performed, including nutritional status, anthropometric measurements, body composition, hand dynamometer, pulmonary function, and food frequency. Also quality of life were assessed by SGRQ. Tailored dietary counselling were given to the patients and, patients were assessed at the end of the 3-month follow-up period in terms of same parameters.

Detailed description: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is an irreversible interstitial lung disease of unknown etiology, characterized by progressive loss of lung function. IPF is a disease of advanced age. Preliminary studies of IPF indicate that nutritional status may affect quality of life and prognosis, but the clinical significance of nutritional status has not been investigated. Weight loss is recognized as a common complication of IPF. There is no study that comprehensively evaluates the nutritional status of IPF patients in Turkey. The aim of this study is to comprehensively evaluate the nutritional status of IPF patients and to evaluate the effectiveness of 3-month dietary counselling. In this study, the nutritional status of IPF patients followed in Atatürk Sanatorium Training and Research Hospital were comprehensively evaluated. A comprehensive assessment were performed, including nutritional status, anthropometric measurements, body composition, dynamometer, pulmonary function, and several questionnaires. so quality of life were assessed by SGRQ. All measurements were taken at the baseline. Then, tailored dietary counselling were given to the patients and, patients were assessed at the end of the 3-month follow-up period in terms of same parameters.
