Brief Summary: We aimed to compare the functional results of the 8th week with the results of the 12th week of the exercise programs applied to the patients with ILD.
Detailed Description: Exercise programs (EP) have been shown to be the effective approach for functional outcomes in interstitial lung diseases (ILD). In many studies, the duration of exercise programs varies between 8-12 weeks. However, the optimal duration of exercise program is still unknown. We aimed to compare the results of the 8th week with the results of the 12th week of the PR programs applied to the patients with ILD. A total of 14 patients with ILD referred to our PR unit \[11 idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, 2 sarcoidosis (stage 3 and 4) and 1 nonspecific interstitial pneumonia\] were included in the study. Pulmonary function test, arterial blood gas analysis, 6- minute walk test, mMRC dyspnea scale, quality of life questionnaires and hospital anxiety depression scale were performed before, at the 8th and 12th weeks after the exercise program applied to the patients twice a week.
