About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Cystic Fibrosis focused on measuring Exercise training, High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT), Moderate Intensity Continuous Training (MICT), Exercise capacity, Peak Oxygen uptake (VO2peak), Body-composition, Subjective appetite and satiety ratings, Appetite regulating hormones, Health related quality of life, Habitual physical activity, ad libitum energy intake

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 70 Years (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • confirmed diagnosis of cystic fibrosis by at least 2 sweat tests and / or by the presence of two CF mutations,
  • willingness to participate in and to comply with the research project procedure,
  • written informed consent of patients,
  • age ≥ 18 years,
  • FEV1 of pred. ≥ 40%,
  • Stable condition (as indicated by absence of one or more signs: new or increased haemoptysis, increased malaise, fatigue or lethargy, temperature over 38°C, weight loss, sinus pain and a decrease in pulmonary function by 10% or more)

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Severe pulmonary exacerbation,
  • cor pulmonale,
  • musculoskeletal discomfort that makes a regular exercise training impossible,
  • untreated CF-related diabetes

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

change in Peak Oxygen Uptake
measured with peak Oxygen uptake (VO2) in percent predicted
change in Peak Workload
measured with peak Workload in percent predicted
change body fat mass index
measured with body fat mass index (FMI) in kg / m*2
change in Body fat free mass index
measured with fat free body mass index (FFMI) in kg / m*2

Secondary Outcome Measures

change in Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second
measured with Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second (FEV1) in percent predicted
change in Health related quality of life
measured with the Cystic Fibrosis Questionnaire Revised (CFQ-R); 9 Quality of life domains: Physical, role/school, vitality, emotion, social, body image, eating, treatment burden, health perceptions: 3 symptom scales: Weight, respiratory, and digestion Scores range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better health.
appetite control - subjective feeling of hunger
measured with visual analogue scales. The scale consists of a 10 cm vertical line anchored with "not hungry at all" at the left side and with "extremely hungry" at the right side.
