What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. To describe the difference in terms of FEV1 decline between two cohorts of cystic fibrosis patients

    Measured: 5 years

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. To identify clinical parameters or treatments correlated to FEV1 maintenance in two cohorts of cystic fibrosis patients

    Measured: 5 years

  2. To evaluate the number of patients with Pseudomonas Aeruginosa infection during observational period

    Measured: 5 years

  3. To describe length of time without Pseudomonas A. infection in non-colonized patients during observational period.

    Measured: 5 years
