Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a complex, multisystem genetic disorder that requires lifelong, multidisciplinary care. In recent years, advances in diagnostics, personalized medicine, and targeted therapies have significantly improved patient outcomes and life expectancy. This Special Issue aims to explore contemporary strategies in CF management, including pharmacological innovations, nutritional support, physiotherapy, and psychological interventions. We welcome contributions that address both pediatric and adult populations, reducing complications and enhancing quality of life. Additionally, we encourage submissions that focus on patient-centered approaches and the impact of emerging technologies such as telemedicine and AI in CF care. By bringing together diverse perspectives, this issue seeks to provide a comprehensive overview of current practices and future directions in CF management.
