Hospitalization Rates in Interstitial Lung Disease: An Analysis of the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation Registry.
Rationale: Little is known about hospitalization in other types of interstitial lung disease (ILD) besides idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Objectives: To determine the frequency of hospitalizations in various types of ILD and elucidate the association of hospitalization with outcomes. Methods: An analysis of the Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation Patient Registry data was performed. ⋯ Conclusions: Rates of hospitalization are similar across ILD subtypes. The risk of death or transplant after posthospitalization is lower in patients with CTD-ILD and non-IPF IIP, compared with patients with IPF. In a mixed population of participants with ILD, all-cause hospitalizations were not associated with decreased transplant-free survival; however respiratory-related hospitalizations were.
