Effects of an Exercise Intervention on Exercise Capacity in Adults With Cystic Fibrosis: A Quasi‐Experimental Study Comparing Individuals Treated With and Without Elexacaftor/Tezacaftor/Ivacaftor
Independent of ETI treatment, adult pwCF improve their exercise capacity by participating in a regular exercise program. ETI treatment appears to enhance time spent in higher PA intensities. Despite the effectiveness of CFTR modulators, regular PA and exercise remain essential to maintain and improve exercise capacity in pwCF.
