Study Stopped
Clinical care of patients with CF changed following COVID-19 pandemic (OGTT not performed at the CF clinic since March 2020); in consequence, this study is no longer feasible.

Brief Summary
Cystic fibrosis (CF) patients are at risk for vitamin K deficiencies. Supplementation for fat-soluble vitamins A, D, and E is well established, but in CF, there is little data for vitamin K concerning the optimal dose and frequency of supplementation. Beyond its known role in coagulation, research has highlighted the role of vitamin K for bone health and the control of blood sugar levels. However, after pulmonary complications, the risk of diabetes and bone diseases are two important and frequent complications of CF. Patients with CF being at risk of vitamin K deficiencies, this vitamin could play a role in these complications.
