Poor outcomes are caused by delayed diagnosis and insufficient patient education (PE). In this context, the Manipal Interstitial Lung Disease Educational Booklet (MILD EduB), a culturally relevant resource for individuals with ILD in India, was developed and validated. The booklet was developed in four stages: (1) a scoping review to identify important educational themes; (2) development of a draft booklet shared with experts for review and feedback; (3) validation of the booklet by healthcare professionals using the content validity index (CVI); and (4) face validation by individuals with ILD. The initial scale-level CVI (S-CVI\/Ave) was 0.79, which improved to 1.0 following modifications, indicating good expert consensus via the healthcare professionals. Face validation by individuals with ILD (n\u2009=\u200910) using a 4-point Likert scale demonstrated 100% agreement for readability, relevance, and design. With a Flesch Reading Ease Scale score of 80.9, the finalised booklet is considered easy to read and accessible to individuals with ILD with a wide range of reading levels. MILD EduB fills an important gap in ILD-specific educational resources, particularly in low-resource settings. Its evidence-based content and patient-centered design aim to improve adherence and self-management.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0353274","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,14]],"date-time":"2026-07-14T17:23:13Z","timestamp":1784049793000},"page":"e0353274","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1371\/journal.pone.corrections_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Development and validation of the Manipal Interstitial Lung Disease Education Booklet (MILD EduB) for individuals with interstitial lung disease"],"prefix":"10.1371","volume":"21","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3403-4511","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Revati","family":"Amin","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Aswini Kumar","family":"Mohapatra","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"G.
