CF in pregnancy and child health study
Part of Digestive system, Genetic & congenital, Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study follows women with cystic fibrosis (CF) during pregnancy and after birth, and checks on their babies and young children. The goal is to learn more about how CF affects pregnancy and child development.
