What causes cystic fibrosis?


Healing hearts, healing lives.
Pulmonary cystic fibrosis is a congenital disease with familial autosomal recessive inheritance. As a disease of exocrine glands, gastrointestinal tract and respiratory tract are often affected. The diagnosis is based on the obvious increase in sodium chloride content in the industry, reflecting the abnormal function of exocrine glands. Due to the increase of mucus in the bronchi, bronchial obstruction can be caused, so that certain bacteria such as Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa can easily grow and reproduce, further causing repeated bronchial infection, followed by pulmonary cystic fibrosis and serious damage to lung function. Treatment consists mainly of antibiotics for anti-infective treatment and other symptomatic treatments, such as pancreatic enzyme supplementation, high-calorie diet, multivitamin supplementation, especially vitamins e and c, and postural drainage or aerosol inhalation for patients with viscous respiratory secretions.
