Conditions
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Percentage of participants with a screen positive result
Percentage of participants with a screen positive result. This will be defined as abnormal nNO and/or abnormal HSVA and confirmatory genetic testing or TEM findings of classic pathogenic variants.
From Baseline through study completion, approximately two years.
Study Arms (1)
Bronchiectasis
EXPERIMENTALpatients with a known or new diagnosis of bronchiectasis
Interventions
Subjects will have their nasal nitric oxide measured using commercially available chemiluminescence analyzer in accordance with American Thoracic Society/European Respiratory Society guidelines
Human nasal epithelial cells will be collected via nasal swab, nasal curettage or nasal brush from each nostril.

- Adults (≥18) with CT-confirmed bronchiectasis
You may not qualify if:
- Pre-existing diagnosis of cystic fibrosis
- Pre-existing diagnosis of primary ciliary dyskinesia
- Inability to perform testing
- Refusal of consent
