Details and patient eligibility

About

This prospective cohort study will investigate whether progression of the interstitial lung diseases is related to specific clinical endpoints and their changes over time. Longitudinal data of patients will be compared to an age-matched control group during a follow-up of at least two years.

Enrollment

105 estimated patients

Sex

All

Ages

40 to 75 years old

Inclusion and exclusion criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Patients with interstitial lung disease:

    • Age between 40 and 75 years old upon inclusion;
    • Diagnosis of interstitial lung disease;
    • Clinical stability for at least 4 weeks prior to inclusion;
    • Absence of any comorbidity that interferes with the performance of tests;
  2. Age-matched control group:

    • Age between 40 and 75 years old upon inclusion;
    • Absence of any comorbidity that interferes with the performance of tests;

Exclusion Criteria (both groups):

  • Participants that present severe or unstable cardiac disease identified during the cardiopulmonary exercise testing;
  • Participants with cognitive deficit that interfere with any of the tests;
