ABSTRACT There is little information on the objective benefits of inhospital therapy in CF. We, therefore, studied the effects of a 13 day ± 2.6 SD (range 10-18 days) admission on lung


functions and exercise capacity in 15 CF patients with moderate to severe disease. Treatment consisted of intravenous antibiotics, postural drainage and exercise therapy. We measured resting


vital capacity (VC), residual volume (RV), total lung capacity (TLC), forced expired volume in 1 second (FEV1), specific airway conductance (SG), arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2), and


exercise adaptation and tolerance shortly after admission and before discharge. Adaptation to exercise was evaluated by the work capacity (Watts/kg), peak heart rate (PHR), exercise-induced


changes in SaO2 and the ratio of PHR to peak W/kg. The results show that our 2-week treatment program brought about significant, objective improvements in lung function, exercise tolerance


and exercise adaptation in CF patients. ARTICLE PDF AUTHOR INFORMATION AUTHORS AND AFFILIATIONS * State Univ. of N.Y., Children's Hospital, Dept. of Pediatrics, Buffalo, N.Y. Frank J
