Summary: This pocketbook aims to be a concise companion for all health care professionals who manage, or come across, patients with cystic fibrosis. The book covers all aspects of care, including both paediatric and adult-specific issues. There have been enormous advances in the treatment of CF over the last 40 years, with life expectancy increasing from just 5 years in 1964 to mid 30s today, and it now affects as many adults as children. The burden of care for these patients is, however, considerable, and with the increase in life expectancy the impact of the condition on respiratory medicine has increased considerably.
