Brief Summary
The Italian registry of pulmonary non-tuberculous mycobacteria (NTM) -IRENE- is an observational, multicenter, prospective, cohort study enrolling consecutive adult patients with either a NTM respiratory infection or NTM-Pulmonary Disease. The coordinating center is located at the Pulmonary Department of the Fondazione IRCCS Ca' Granda, Ospedale Maggiore Policlinico, Milan, Italy. So far, more than 35 centers, including mainly pulmonary and infectious disease departments, joined the registry. The registry has been developed to accept an unlimited number of patients and no deadlines have been decided.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Proportion of patients meeting the quality standards for NTM-PD care suggested by international guidelines (including the latest ERS 2017 guidelines)
The number of patients with NTM-PD who have been managed or treated according to the recommendations published by international guidelines
5 years
Eligibility Criteria
Patients included in the registry are mainly recruited among pulmonary and Infectious diseases out- and in-patient services. Adult cystic fibrosis, lung transplant, and tuberculosis clinics represent other recruitment centers. A heterogeneous population of patients with NTM infection/NTM-Pulmonary Disease sharing different clinical phenotypes is expected to be enrolled in the registry. IRENE has a special focus on four patients' categories: 1) immunocompetent/bronchiectatic, 2) HIV-positive, 3) cystic fibrosis and 4) lung transplanted patients.
You may qualify if:
- Adult (\>=18 years) patients
- At least one positive culture for any NTM species from any respiratory sample
- At least one positive culture for NTM isolated in the year prior the enrolment and/or prescribed NTM treatment in the year prior the enrollment
