Improvements in cystic fibrosis survival according with the advances CF care. Advances in CF care were resulted from increasing knowledge in basic sciences as genomics and proteomics. The successive advances in the understanding of the pathophysiology, symptoms and treatment achieved by basic research have made the care of patients with cystic fibrosis highly complex, involving protocols for screening, diagnosis and treatment. This has enabled significant gains in life expectancy, especially in recent decades. However, there are still many issues to be resolved in CF, which is why a great development of research with clinical repercussion is expected in the coming years.
