Conditions
Brief summary
To identify risk factors for mortality in patients with interstitial lung disease receiving mechanical ventilation.
Interventions
Noninvasive and/or invasive mechanical ventilation were performed when patients had respiratory failure.
Sponsors
Study design
Eligibility
Inclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria
* We excluded patients who were admitted into ICU because of postoperative monitoring.
