About this trial

The purpose of this study is to establish a clinical database for patients bearing at risk for ILD (Interstitial Lung Disease) and to set up a prospective ILD Screening program for these patients.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Age: ≥ 18 years

patients with a known systemic disease bearing a risk for ILD

signed informed consent (for prospective part)

Disqualifiers

Age < 18 years

comorbidities severely limiting life-expectancy (e.g. severe cardiovascular conditions, malignant disease)

Trial population

Patients (females and males; above 18 yrs) with a known systemic disease bearing a risk for ILD but without diagnosed ILD and patients (females and males; above 18 yrs) with diagnosed ILD.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

DLCO%pred (carbon monoxide diffusing capacity) at time of ILD diagnosis

The investigators aim to assess DLCO% pred at time of ILD diagnosis in patients undergoing a ILD Screening algorithm and compare to the retrospective patient cohort with diagnosed ILD and the DLCO%pred at time of ILD diagnosis

Time frame
5 years

Secondary outcomes

1

FVC%pred (Forced vital capacity) at time of ILD diagnosis

The investigators aim to assess FVC% pred at time of ILD diagnosis in patients undergoing a ILD Screening algorithm and compare to the retrospective patient cohort with diagnosed ILD and the FVC%pred at time of ILD diagnosis

Time frame
5 years
