Cystic Fibrosis What I already know What do I want to discover The story of my search My search results My growth as a researcher My works cited

What I already know Runs in families It cannot be cured Some people are born with it and some people are not

What do I want to discover Why it cannot be cured? How can people find out if they have it? What affects their body?

Story of my search Picked out what I want to do Went to the library to find information Went on the internet and found more information Decided to use PowerPoint and started my project

25 percent chance that each child with have the disease, and 50 percent that the child with be a carrier. First recognized in 1930’s 1 in 25 of Europeans carried one allele 1 in 2,000-3,000 newborns are found to be affected by CF. To find out if the newborns have CF they take a test. Either genetic test or sweat test 1 out of 2,500 children are born with CF, but 30,000 Americans have the disease.

As the child grows, they must be exercising to release mucus in the alveoli People with CF suffer repeated serious lung infection. Twenty years ago, the average life span for a person with CF was 12 years, now with treatment it’s 37. the treatment can slow down the harm that CF does. But the disease can’t be cured (not yet).

My growth as a researcher Finding information more easier Power Library has more information Learning more about life

Symptoms Poor growth Poor weight Shortness in breath Sticky mucus Frequent chest infection

Treatment Chest Physical Therapy- to loosen the mucus Oral Pancreatic Enzymes- help the digestion tract Bronchodilators- help to keep airways open by the muscles around the Bronchial tubes Breathing Devices- usually a tube or mask. Performing breathing exercises.

Based on the information about Cystic Fibrosis, I learned a lot from it. The reason why I’m researching Cystic Fibrosis, is because my family has this disease. Well they carry it. My niece has it. So we spend as much time with her. So she can be health. She’s always exercising cause of the mucus in her lungs. She do treatments. Also 3 years ago we had to take a genetic test to see why she had the disease. Turned out that my dad, sisters, and her father was a carrier. I found out that my mom, brother, and I don’t have the disease.
