    Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on Pediatric Cystic Fibrosis Pulmonary Exacerbations
    (2020) Patel, Shreya; Thompson, Misty; Slaven, James; Sanders, Don; Ren, Clement; Pediatrics, School of Medicine
    To assess the impact of COVID-19 restrictions on cystic fibrosis (CF) pulmonary exacerbations (PEx) we performed a retrospective review of PEx events at our CF Center and compared the rate of PEx in 2019 vs 2020. Restrictions on social interaction due to the COVID-19 pandemic were associated with a lower rate of PEx at our pediatric CF Center, suggesting that these restrictions also reduced exposure to other respiratory viral infection in children with CF.
