Exploring Novel Interventions to Improve Adherence in Children With Cystic Fibrosis
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Spiro PD personal spirometer for Cystic Fibrosis. Completed, enrolled 5 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The investigators know that adherence to medications in children with cystic fibrosis (CF) is poor. Forgetfulness has often been reported as a barrier to adherence by both CF patients and their parents. Many of the investigators patients also report being motivated by the results of their lung function studies (PFTs) to stay adherent to their medications. In this study, the investigators would like to see if providing medication reminders and allowing patients to measure their lung function at home will lead to better adherence. This will be a pilot study to determine the feasibility of providing such as a device to children with CF.
