Virtual Care in CF (VIRTUAL-CF)

Study details

This study aims to find out if CF patients benefit from ‘virtual care’ while they are receiving intravenous (IV) antibiotics in the community. ‘Virtual care’ is a term that we are using to describe the provision of regular videoconferencing with the CF team as well as equipment to allow patients to monitor their own lung function and oxygen saturations.
