Centralised versus outreach models of cystic fibrosis care should be tailored to the needs of the individual patient.
Abstract
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a common life-limiting genetic condition. As the disease progresses access to specialist tertiary multi-disciplinary care services may become necessary. For patients living in regional/remote Australia, accessing such services may be a challenge. Here, we describe long-term outcomes for CF patients according to their access to specialist CF centre care in childhood.
