Living healthy is all one wants, but the genetics behind creation of every human is different. As a curse or human agony, some are born with congenital defects in their menu of the genome. Just one has to live with that! The complexity of cystic fibrosis condition, which is rather a slow-killer, affects various organ systems of the human body complicating further with secondary infections. That's what makes the disease so puzzling for which scientists around the world are trying to understand better and to find a cure. Though they narrowed down to a single target gene, the tentacles of the disease reach many unknown corners of the human body. Decades of scientific research in the field of chronic illnesses like this one surely increased the level of life expectancy. This book is the compilation of interesting chapters contributed by eminent interdisciplinary scientists around the world trying to make the life of cystic fibrosis patients better.

This book provides a comprehensive overview of the multisystem disease, cystic fibrosis, for both pediatric and adult patients. Written by experts in the field, the text outlines the progressive nature of CF as well as the impact of this autosomal recessive disease on the respiratory, gastrointestinal, endocrine, rheumatologic, and renal systems, as well as the patient’s mental health. The book begins with a chapter describing the history of cystic fibrosis and how the face of this life-shortening disease has changed over the past several decades. The following chapters elucidate the pathophysiology of how cystic fibrosis impacts each organ system. Current management and therapeutics are detailed with step-by-step guidelines for clinicians. This book is unique in that it highlights the entire person, not just the respiratory system, with detailed inclusion of the patient perspectives throughout, informing practice standards and considerations. This is an ideal guide for pediatric and adult physicians who care for patients with cystic fibrosis, as well as respiratory therapists, physical therapists, nurses, nutritionists, and pharmacists who care for these patients.

Mucoviscidose is de meest voorkomende ernstige erfelijke aandoening onder blanken. De ziekte tast ongeveer 1 op 2500 pasgeborenen aan en 1 op 25 blanken dragenhet kenmerk mucoviscidose. Het basisdefect is een verstoord verkeer van zouten en water in en uit de cellen van het lichaam. De meest voorkomende ziektetekens zijn chronische longinfectie en slechte ververtering. Patiënten met mucoviscidose moeten dagelijks een intensieve, complexe, dure en tijdrovende therapie volgen om het voortscrhijden van de ziektetekens te beperken. Momenteel bestaat er nog geen genezende therapie voor deze ziekte. Er is wel hoop dat genezende therapie in de toekomst beschikbaar zal zijn. Dit boek belicht alle aspecten van de ziekte mucoviscidose. Verscheidene binnen- en buitenlandse experts werkten aan dit boek mee.
