Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a genetic disorder which primarily impacts the lungs but also affects kidneys, pancreas, intestine and liver. The major symptoms include difficulty in breathing and coughing up mucus which occurs due to frequent lung infections. There are several other symptoms such as fatty stool, sinus infections, clubbing of the fingers and toes, infertility in most males and poor growth. The disease is genetic and caused in an autosomal recessive manner. The disease can be diagnosed through genetic testing and sweat test. There is currently no treatment for this disease. Antibiotics are used in the treatment of lung infections that can be consumed through mouth, inhaled and given intravenously. This book is compiled in such a manner, that it will provide in-depth knowledge about the symptoms and management of cystic fibrosis. It also aims to shed light on some of the causes and methods of diagnosis for this disease. This book will prove to be immensely beneficial to students and researchers engaged in the study of this medical condition.
