Abstract：Interstitial lung disease(ILD)is a group of heterogeneous diseases that diffusely affects the lung mesenchyme,and is closely related to sleep-related breathing disorders.Obstructive sleep apnea(OSA),as a typical sleep-related breathing disorder,is a common complication of ILD,which can promote early ILD occurrence,disease progression,and lead to ultimate adverse outcomes.Therefore,early identification of OSA in ILD is necessary,but there is a lack of powerful screening tools in clinical practice.Once ILD is combined with moderate to severe OSA,continuous positive airway pressure ventilation is the first choice of treatment.
