Clinical Info

The purpose of this culture of respiratory secretions is to isolate organisms associated with Cystic Fibrosis so appropriate interventions may be taken.  The number of microbial species associates with CF lung disease is limited. Chronic pulmonary infection, principally with Staphylococcus aureus,  Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Burkholderia cepacia is the major cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with CF. B. cepacia is an important  pathogen and is often accompanied by rapid deterioration in pulmonary status and death.
