Cystic Fibrosis
Effect of Lucinactant on Mucus Clearance in Cystic Fibrosis Lung Disease
Mucus clearance is impaired in cystic fibrosis. Inhaled surfactants may reduce adhesive forces between mucus and airway surfaces and improve mucus clearance. This in turn my improve lung health.
- Trial name
- NCT00934362
- Testing
- Lucinactant first

Cystic Fibrosis
Resistive Inspiratory Manoeuvre as Airway Clearance Technique in Cystic Fibrosis
This trial aims to analyze whether the resistive inspiratory manoeuvre (RIM) performed previously to autogenic drainage (AD) technique improves the effectiveness in terms of mucus clearance during a typical bronchial drainage…

Effect of Hypertonic Saline on Mucus Clearance in Children Ages 5-12 With Cystic Fibrosis
Previous work demonstrated that inhaled hypertonic saline (HS) reduces exacerbation frequency and improves lung function in adults with cystic fibrosis (CF).
