What is it? Cystic Fibrosis is a hereditary disease that a person gets when BOTH parents are carriers. It causes abnormally thick mucus in the sinuses, lungs and pancreas.

Alternate Names Cystic fibrosis of the pancreas Fibrocystic disease of the pancreas Mucoviscidosis Mucoviscidosis of the pancreas Pancreas fibrocystic disease Pancreatic cystic fibrosis

Most likely to get this disease People who are… mostly Caucasian Americans northern or Central European decent

Symptoms in new borns Delayed growth Failure to gain weigh normally No bowel movement in the first 24 to 48 hours of new borns life Salty tasting skin (don’t ask why or how this is found to be a symptom. I don’t know)

Symptoms in adults Belly pain Increased gas Bloating Rapid weight loss Lung disfuntion Sinuses are stuffed and in pain Pneumonia Fever Increased cough or coughing up blood Shortness of breath Loss of appetite For men some other (but rare ish) symptoms include: Sweat glands overact and messed up reproductive system

How common? 1 in 29 Caucasian Americans Equally distributed between men and women

Is this disease Deadly? Will it shorten life span? This disease is deadly, and does shorten life span to the average of 35 years old. Children start out fairly healthy and the disease gets progressively worse.

Tests for babies In most states it is required that babies be tested soon after being born In babies they prick the foot and collect the blood on filter paper and look for any thing irregular. They also look for immunoreactive, and trypsinogen

Tests for older children and Adults Blood test Sweat chloride Ct scan Chest xray Lung function test Upper G.I and small bowel series

Treatments for lungs Treatments DO NOT cure the disease Antibiotics (for pneumonia) DNAese enzyme replacement (helps patient cough up mucus easily) Flu vaccine and Pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine yearly In bad cases lung transplant Oxygen therapy as lungs get worse

Treatments for pancreas Treatments DO NOT cure the disease A diet high in protein and calories Pancreatic enzymes to help absorb fats and proteins Vitamin supplements, A,D,E and K

Support groups There are many all around the U.S Reaching out foundation is a huge support group, they help families emotionally, physically, and finacially.

Interesting Facts A person inherits the defective CF gene from BOTH parents There are over 1,000 different variations of the disease People with this disease aren’t supposed to go scuba diving Some peoples symptoms show up at the age of 18.
