Brief Summary

Implementation of a Clinical Tool to Improve Waitlist Mortality in Patients With Cystic Fibrosis

Conditions

Cystic Fibrosis; Lung Transplant; Complications

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Lung Allocation Score (LAS)

  Change in LAS value at the first clinic visit triggered by the clinical tool

  Through study completion, an average of 3-6 months (time spent on the lung transplant waiting list).

Secondary Outcomes (2)

• Time to transplant

  Through study completion, up to 1 year

• Survival to transplant

  Through study completion, up to 1 year

Study Arms (1)

Clinical Tool (Mobile Spirometry and Survey)

EXPERIMENTAL

All subjects enrolled will be placed into the clinical tool arm. The clinical tool is comprised of a mobile application based assessment of home spirometry and a survey measuring patient reported outcomes.

Other: Clinical Tool (Mobile Spirometry and Survey)

Interventions

Clinical Tool (Mobile Spirometry and Survey) OTHER

The clinical tool is a combination of home spirometry measurements and a patient survey measuring patient reported outcomes including the Cystic Fibrosis Respiratory Symptom Diary (CFRSD) and Chronic Respiratory Infection Symptom Score (CRISS©), with permission from the Seattle Quality of Life Group.
