The Ethics Committee of the Estalvi Ètic de Colonya joins the Educate equals Health in CF project for 2022 with a grant of € 2,000.00 to the Respiralia Foundation.
A project to improve lives
Training in Cystic Fibrosis is essential to keep the disease under control. With this program we seek that people with Cystic Fibrosis know how to manage the treatment of their disease in an autonomous way, that is to say, without excessive dependence on the professional team.
Corresponsibility
Cystic Fibrosis requires 14 respiratory physiotherapy sessions per week, so, as a general rule, most of them are performed without the help of a physiotherapist. Therefore, the user of this program must take responsibility for how to correctly apply the technique at home.
Combination of respiratory physiotherapy and endurance training.
A good combination of respiratory physiotherapy and stress re-education exercises is very important. Airway drainage accompanied by thoracic mobility, aerobic, strength-endurance and maximal strength exercises can help not only to maintain lung capacity, but even to increase it.
