• Research summary

  The aim of this study is to explore the potential use of a temperature sensor to assist or improve the detection of health conditions in people with CF. The emphasis is on identifying onset and progression of pulmonary exacerbations. We aim to recruit adult males and females with Cystic Fibrosis (CF) who are already participating in the Project Breathe home monitoring service improvement project at Royal Papworth Hospital. To determine if continuous temperature monitoring can contribute to existing predictive algorithms for pulmonary exacerbations.
