The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effects of autogenic drainage and mechanical percussion on lung function, dyspnea, and quality of life in children with cystic fibrosis. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does autogenic drainage improve lung function more effectively than mechanical percussion in …
First described in cardiac surgery, the aortic to radial pressure gradient (ATRAP) is the cause of an underestimation of the aortic pressure with a measure assumed with a radial catheter, and he can concert 1 of 3rd patients. The risks factor well known are small height, previous hypertension, long and …
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of single and multiple ascending doses of VX-272.
Sputum culture has been the best approach to detect harmful bacteria in the lungs of people with cystic fibrosis (CF). With the widespread use of new CF therapies (like Trikafta and Alyftrak), it is more difficult for people with CF to produce sputum even though they still have harmful bacteria …
In the collective unconscious, a patient with cystic fibrosis does not smoke. This belief is so deeply rooted that there is virtually no French data on the prevalence of smoking among this vulnerable population. Faced with a cohort of patients undergoing a complete transformation (improved quality of life and life …
Cystic fibrosis is a rare, progressive genetic disease caused by a mutation in the CFTR (cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator) gene. Respiratory and nutritional effects are crucial to patients' prognosis. Since the early years of 2010, etiological treatment has been based on the use of CFTRm (CFTR modulator), which aim …
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) tailored to meet the needs of adults living with cystic fibrosis (ACT with CF) is a newer form of talk therapy that has been shown to reduce anxiety \& depression and improve psychological flexibility, and value-based living. The investigators are now trying to find out …
This research aims to evaluate the effects of upper and lower limb exercises on muscle strength and pulmonary function in children diagnosed with CF. While aerobic training is a known component of CF management, resistance training focused on specific limb groups has gained attention for its additional benefits. Upper limb …
There is no study to date that has evaluated the impact or effect of a Mediterranean diet in children with CF. The goal of this study would be to help provide better guidance around questions the investigators, as CF care providers continue to receive from patients and families about how …
Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disorder affecting the entire body and associated with respiratory exacerbations, impaired quality of life and reduced life expectancy. The therapeutic management of cystic fibrosis has been profoundly changed by the recent arrival of a combination of highly effective cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) modulators, …
