Overview
Brief Summary
The aim of this study to investigate and compare functional capacity with different tests and to evaluate the relationship between functional capacity and quality of life during acute pulmonary exacerbation in children with cystic fibrosis.
Exercise tests associated with prognostic values in CF patients and decreased exercise capacity has been correlated with a reduction in health-related quality of life. Pulmonary functions, functional capacity and quality of life will examine in this study.
Detailed Description
This study will be participated children with cystic fibrosis who will diagnosed acute pulmonary exacerbation. Patients' pulmonary function test, functional capacity will be assess and record at hospital admission and hospital discharge and outpatient clinic control. Quality of life will be evaluated at only outpatient clinic control . Pulmonary function test will be assessed with spirometry, functional capacity will be evaluated with 1-minute sit to stand test and 3-minute step test. And quality of life will be evaluated Cystic Fibrosis Questionnaire-Revised (CFQ-R).

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
1 minute sit to stand test (STS) repetitions
Time Frame: November 2019- January 2021
number of STS completed at hospital admissions, hospital discharge and outpatient time
Quality of life assesment
Time Frame: November 2019- January 2021
Cystic Fibrosis Questionnaire-Revised (CFQ-R) included 4 different age. These versions are teen/adult version,child version,parent version for children, preschool version. Scores range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better health. This questionnaire will be filled only once.
