What this trial studies

This project aims to develop a co-constructed program that involves both patients and healthcare professionals to enhance therapeutic adherence in adults with cystic fibrosis. The program will be implemented and evaluated across three cystic fibrosis centers in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region of France. The intervention focuses on providing information, motivation, and behavioral skills to support patients in managing their condition effectively. By actively involving patients in the creation of the program, the study seeks to address the unique challenges they face in adhering to treatment regimens.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates for this study are adults aged 18 or older with cystic fibrosis who reside in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region and can communicate in French.

Not a fit: Patients who have undergone transplantation or those who participated in the working group for the co-construction of the intervention may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this program could significantly improve treatment adherence and health outcomes for patients with cystic fibrosis.

How similar studies have performed: While no previous programs have demonstrated effectiveness in improving therapeutic adherence for cystic fibrosis, this co-constructed approach is innovative and may offer new insights.
