Clinical evaluation categorizes dyspnea and desaturation in interstitial lung disease, highlighting paths toward tailored pulmonary rehabilitation.
Dyspnea and desaturation during exercise are essential assessment items for pulmonary rehabilitation. Characterizing patients using these 2 factors may be important for providing more effective pulmonary rehabilitation. This study aimed to categorize subjects with interstitial lung disease (ILD) using dyspnea and desaturation at the end of the 6-min walk test (6MWT).
