Our objectives were to identify clinical and physiological variables that predict the extent of exertional oxygen desaturation in fibrotic ILD and to quantify the severity of desaturation compared to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>This retrospective study compared the results of 6\u2010min walk test (6MWT) performed while breathing room air in fibrotic ILD patients and COPD patients eligible for pulmonary rehabilitation. Outcomes included the oxygen saturation (SpO<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>) nadir and the change in SpO<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub> from rest during a 6MWT. Predictor variables were identified on unadjusted analysis, followed by multivariate analysis to identify independent predictors of desaturation.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The study included 134 patients with fibrotic ILD and 274 patients with COPD. The ILD and COPD cohorts had similar age, sex, frequency of major comorbidities, walk distance, baseline SpO<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub> and baseline Borg dyspnoea scores. DL<jats:sub>CO<\/jats:sub> was the strongest predictor of desaturation in both cohorts. Compared to patients with COPD, ILD patients had significantly lower SpO<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub> nadir values (88.1 \u00b1 6.4 vs 91.0 \u00b1 4.6) and greater decrease in SpO<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub> from baseline (7.4 \u00b1 5.2 vs 4.5 \u00b1 3.7) after adjusting for demographic features and pulmonary physiology (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt; 0.0005), with greater between\u2010group differences at lower DL<jats:sub>CO<\/jats:sub> values.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Patients with fibrotic ILD have greater oxygen desaturation during 6MWT compared to patients with COPD when adjusting for demographic features and pulmonary physiology.
