Assess lung sounds and
respiratory status. Monital O2
sat. Obtain sputum culture to
check for infection. Provide
support to child and family.
DNA test
Chest x-ray
Sweat test
Duodenal analysis
Stool analysis
-Deficient in vitamin A,D,E,K
(fat-soluble)
May have infection
CF is a respiratory disorder that is a result
of an inherited gene from both parents. This
causes thick mucus production that
mechanically obstructs organs.
Family history of CF. Meconium ileus at birth manifested as distended abdomen, vomiting, and inability to
pass stool. Meconium ileus is the earliest indication of CF in a newborn.
Respiratory findings: Early maifestations include; wheezing, ronchi, nonproductive cough. Increased
involvement; dyspnea, atelectasis, paroxysmal cough. Advanced involvement; cyanosis, barrel-shaped
chest(emphysema) clubbed finger/toes.
GI findings: large appetite transition into loss of appetite. Failure to gain weight. Deficiency of fat-soluble
vitamins.
Integumentary: High Na+and Cl- in sweat, tears, mucus
Genetic screen before
concieving.
Both biological parents carry
recessive CF trait. Caucasian
ethnicity.
Increased risk for
infections. Eat
increased
calories. Avoid
dehydration
because of the
high NA+ and Cl-
levels.

thickness.
Antibiotics,
pancreatic enzyme,
Fat-soluble vitamins
Pulmonary management: airway clearance therapy,
aerobic exercise, aersolized antibiotics.
GI management: high protein high calorie diet.
Pancreatic enzymes 30 min prior to meal, increase
oral fluid intake, admin vitamin A, D, E, K.
Laxative/stool softener for constipation.
Endocrine management: monitor blood glucose
because CF increase risk for diabetes.
