Filter by:Patients and parents of patients will be asked to answer a questionnaire on paper or online, by the CRCMs and through communication campaigns distributed by the association Vaincre La Mucoviscidose (VLM). This questionnaire includes about fifty items that will take 5 to 12 minutes to complete. The study aims to interview 250 patients / parents of patients, users and non-users of essential oils. Thirty patients or volunteer parents will then meet with a health anthropologist for qualitative interviews to document very precisely the modalities of use of essential oils: which ones, at what dose, advised by whom, the dedicated budget. Relationships with CRCM doctors, the effects felt, the side effects will also be explored. The global data of the two phases will be integrated and put into perspective with the scientific data currently available on essential oils.
The intimate life of patients with cystic fibrosis has not been the subject of specific research, it is even left behind in favor of respiratory, digestive or endocrinological dysfunctions endangering these patients. After 16 years of practice, it is significant that this subject is problematic, painful but difficult to tackle; No doubt just as much on the side of caregivers: this question has never found its way into team exchanges, it seems to be evaded doubtless difficult or too intimate to welcome. These disorders arise from the effects of the disease on the health of the mucous epithelial tissues also located in the genital area. These difficulties are more closely approached by the difficulties of procreation; PMA allows them to get around them, nevertheless making it possible to be a parent, with the residual frustration of a satisfactory sex life: a deaf "addition", adding to many care constraints. It is therefore in terms of sexual health and quality of sexual life that it is desirable to shed light on this aspect of cystic fibrosis in women. Bibliographic research confirms this approach: this subject is not explored, the rare publications concern the vulnerability of the cervix or the difficulty on both sides of tackling this subject.
Background The main risk factor for cervical cancer is the infection by human papillomavirus (HPV). Vaccination against HPV, offered to all girls aged 11 to 14 is an effective method of prevention against cervical pathology. Despite this, vaccination coverage against HPV remains low in France. A proportion of women with cystic fibrosis may be involved in transplantation, a factor associated with a higher risk of HPV carriage and cervical pathology. An over-risk of cervical pathology would also be present in women with non-transplanted cystic fibrosis. Particular attention to vaccination should therefore be included in this population. Objectives of the study The main objective of the study is to estimate the frequency of HPV vaccination in young girls with CF over 9 years and followed in a pediatric CF center. The secondary objectives are to know: - The type of vaccine used (bivalent / quadrivalent / nonavalent) - The proportion of vaccinated girls with respect of the vaccination schedule (number of injections / spacing between doses) - Reasons for non-use of vaccination Study design The study will last 12 months. It is a cross-sectional, non-interventional, multicenter conducted by self-administered questionnaire. Population - young girls aged 9 years or older with Cystic fibrosis - Followed in a pediatric or mixed CF center in the France (Rhone-Alpes Auvergne Region and Ile de France Region) - With parents who did not object to participation in the study Number of subject: 62 patients Expected results - Knowledge of HPV vaccination coverage in young girls with CF. - Sensitization of patients, their parents and health professionals to HPV vaccination. Understand the barriers and reasons for refusing vaccination to promote actions to improve immunization coverage.
Repeated measurements of lung water by single transpulmonary thermodilution during the first postoperative days following lung transplantation
This is an add-on, randomized, open label, clinical trial that evaluates the use of quadriceps electrostimulation as an additional retraining procedure in patients suffering from cystic fibrosis.
The aim of the study is identify biological parameters reflecting proteolytic activity in the exhaled condenstaes which might be useful to follow up pulmonary inflammation in various conditions including cystic fibrosis, COPD, asthma, tobacco exposure. Three proteases will be analyzed, i.e. elastase, proteinase 3 and cathepsin G. Results in the condensates will be compared to those obtained in sputum.
