That is a question for a pulmonologist or respiratory therapist. IPF has many forms, and occurs with many other lung diseases. Here is a basic explanation:

The pulmonary fibrosis foundation has a lot of great resources. Here is one about oxygen therapy:

As for connectability, this site provided comprehensive reviews of several models that are controllable from a cell phone and others that auto-adjust to your breathing:

Thanks again for the links and information provided. I was particularly interested in a home oxygen concentrator, up to 10L that could be controlled by your phone or remote. The link appears to reference Portable Oxygen Concentrators. Does anyone use or know if they manufacture a stationary unit with remote control features ?
