[National French guidelines for management of infants with cystic fibrosis]

Abstract

These guidelines aim to standardize the care of infants diagnosed with a typical form of cystic fibrosis (CF) at neonatal screening. They have been implemented by the National Working Group for Neonatal Screening of the French Federation for CF and have been validated using the Delphi methodology by a large group of clinicians involved in the care of CF infants. These guidelines encompass management and organization of care at diagnosis and describe nutritional, digestive, and respiratory monitoring and treatment during the first 2 years of life.
