الوصف: Background: Interstitial lung diseases (ILD) unresponsive to medical therapy often require lung transplantation (LTx), which prolongs quality of life and survival. Ideal timing for referral for LTx remains challenging, with late referral associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Among other criteria, patients with ILD should be considered for LTx if forced vital capacity (FVC) is less than 80% or diffusion capacity for carbon monoxide (DLCO) is less than 40%. However, data on referral rates are lacking. Objectives: To evaluate referral rates for LTx based on pulmonary function tests (PFTs) and identify barriers associated with non-referral. Design: A single-center retrospective cohort study. Methods: The study consisted of ILD patients who performed PFT between 2014 and 2020. Patients with FVC
