Activity Overview
The management of cystic fibrosis (CF) has been radically transformed with the introduction of effective modulators of the protein underlying the pathogenesis of the disease. In addition, newborn screening has improved outcomes through early detection and intervention on gastrointestinal and pulmonary symptoms that can impair development. However, screening can underserve non-White populations due to a variety of biases and biological factors. Moreover, as patient survival continues to improve, there is a greater need for smooth transitions of care through different stages of life.
In this program, expert faculty discuss best practices for diagnosis and managing CF in patients, with particular consideration for providing context on the need for screening in non-White populations. They also discuss principles for helping patients with CF transition through different life changes.
Target Audience
This educational activity is directed toward CF specialists, pulmonologists, gastroenterologists, respiratory therapists, dieticians, primary care providers, specialty nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and other HCPs involved in the care of patients with CF.
Learning Objectives
Upon successful completion of this activity, you should be better prepared to:
- Describe strategies to promote early diagnosis in CF
- Summarize the growing diversity within the adult CF population
- Implement strategies to enhance patient management for individuals with CF
