Research summary
This study will investigate if parental physical activity levels, assessed by providing a physical activity questionnaire to parents of children aged 6-16 with Cystic Fibrosis (CF), is associated with their child with CF’s physical activity levels. Children’s activity levels will be taken from electronic records where a questionnaire is routinely given at annual reviews to analyse this. Parental activity levels will also be compared against adherence to nebulisers as a proxy for adherence to treatment, this data is again in the electronic records of patients and is collected at annual reviews.
