Conditions We Treat
Cystic Fibrosis
Cystic Fibrosis affects approximately 40,000 children and adults in the United States, and nearly 400 in Nebraska. Cystic Fibrosis causes thick, sticky mucus to clog the lungs and digestive system. This can lead to malnutrition and repeated lung infections. As a complex, multi-system condition, Cystic Fibrosis requires specialized treatment and medications. There is no cure for Cystic Fibrosis at this time and it shortens a person’s lifespan. However, researchers continue to make significant progress in effective treatments and management strategies.
