Abstract
Autoimmune diseases comprise a wide and diverse group of diseases, each with its own specific complications, and with common complications such as pulmonary involvement. Lung involvement is extensive and one of its complications is interstitial lung disease, which varies widely within each of the autoimmune diseases. Health-related quality of life is defined as all those aspects that reflect the impact of the disease and the perception of disability and daily functionality of the patient. Even though this concept is subjective, health researchers have sought to define it to serve as a tool in the evaluation of interventions in subjects with different types of pathologies, so much so that it has become a main outcome in program evaluation and clinical research. To date, we are not aware of tools designed with the objective of measuring quality of life specifically in lung involvement due to interstitial lung disease related to autoimmune diseases. The objective of this review will be to further explore the available information on the measurement of quality of life in these patients.
期刊介绍：
The Colombian Journal of Rheumatology (Revista Colombiana de Reumatología) is the official organ of the Colombian Association of Rheumatology (Asociación Colombiana de Reumatología) and the Central American, Caribbean and Andean Association of Rheumatology (Asociación Centroamericana Caribe Andina de Reumatología) - ACCA. It was created in December 1993 with the purpose of disseminating scientific information derived from primary and secondary research and presenting cases coming from the practice of Rheumatology in Latin America. Since its foundation, the Journal has been characterized by its plurality with subjects of all rheumatic and osteomuscular pathologies, in the form of original articles, historical articles, economic evaluations, and articles of reflection and education in Medicine. It covers an extensive area of topics ranging from the broad spectrum of the clinical aspects of rheumatology and related areas in autoimmunity (both in pediatric and adult pathologies), to aspects of basic sciences. It is an academic tool for the different members of the academic and scientific community at their different levels of training, from undergraduate to post-doctoral degrees, managing to integrate all actors inter and trans disciplinarily. It is intended for rheumatologists, general internists, specialists in related areas, and general practitioners in the country and abroad. It has become an important space in the work of all rheumatologists from Central and South America.
