Nutrition in Cystic Fibrosis
Seminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 09/28/09

Matel JL et al. – This proactive approach for the early identification of nutritional risk has become a major theme within the network of US CF centers. Aggressive nutritional support with adequate pancreatic replacement management should lead to both normal growth and lung function preservation. In addition, nutritional status has to be monitored closely during routine encounters to allow for early intervention once derangements are noted. This will include increasing calories in the early stages of lung disease and being vigilant of gastrointestinal symptomatology and complications.
