Sleep quality and daytime function in adults with cystic fibrosis and severe lung disease.
It was hypothesized that adult cystic fibrosis (CF) patients with severe lung disease have impaired daytime function related to nocturnal hypoxaemia and sleep disruption. Nineteen CF patients (forced expiratory volume in one second 28+/-7% predicted) and 10 healthy subjects completed sleep diaries, overnight polysomnography (PSG), and assessment of daytime sleepiness and neurocognitive function...
متن کاملCYSTIC FIBROSIS Progression of lung disease on computed tomography and pulmonary function tests in children and adults with cystic fibrosis
Background: A study was undertaken to compare the ability of computed tomographic (CT) scores and pulmonary function tests to detect changes in lung disease in children and adults with cystic fibrosis (CF). Methods: CT scans and pulmonary function tests were retrospectively studied in a cohort of patients with CF aged 5–52 years for whom two or three CT scans at 3 year intervals were available,...
متن کاملLung function in infants with cystic fibrosis.
Lung function was measured in 28 infants with cystic fibrosis and repeated in 17 of the infants during the first year of life. Thoracic gas volume (TGV) and specific airway conductance (sGaw) were measured plethysmographically and maximum forced expiratory flow at functional residual capacity (VmaxFRC) was derived from the partial expiratory flow-volume curve. At the time of the initial evaluat...
متن کاملSpirometry quality in adults with very severe lung function impairment.
BACKGROUND Some technologists worry that patients with very severe lung disease are unable to complete several spirometry maneuvers, which require considerable effort. METHODS We retrospectively selected all spirometry tests with an FEV1 < 35% predicted done by adult subjects sent to our pulmonary function laboratory during a 3-y period. We determined the rates and correlates of poor quality ...
متن کاملNutrition and lung disease in cystic fibrosis.
Among patients who have cystic fibrosis (CF), lung disease is a significant contributor to morbidity. From a clinical perspective, the link between malnutrition and lung dysfunction in CF is well established; however, the causal relationship remains unclear. Nutritional intervention for CF patients is predicated on the hypothesis that improved nutritional status improves pulmonary function. Whi...
