Tiivistelmä
Cystic Fibrosis is a rare and hereditary disease that affects many organs but mostly the respiratory system. Because of the recent great improvements in research and treatment, the population of Cystic Fibrosis patients are growing. The treatment of the respiratory symptoms is largely supported by the physiotherapist. This thesis is made to support the role of the physiotherapist in management of CF.
The aim of the thesis was to increase the knowledge of physiotherapy students about cystic fibrosis and about the role of the respiratory physiotherapist and objectives for patients with cystic fibrosis. The objective of this thesis was to create an online lecture for physiotherapy students.
The thesis included a theoretical part and a practical part. It started with gathering information about Cystic Fibrosis, the pathophysiology, and the treatment associated with the disease. Then research was done about the role of the physiotherapist and guidelines were created.
The practical part included an online class addressed to the physiotherapy students of the Satakunta University of Applied Sciences Degree Program in Physiotherapy. The online class was one hour long and included basic knowledge about Cystic Fibrosis and important knowledge about the physiotherapist's role.
