24. Hospital care for adults with cystic fibrosis: an overview and comparison between special cystic fibrosis clinics and general clinics using a patient questionnaire.
BACKGROUND--Provision of medical care for adult patients with cystic fibrosis is an increasing problem as the number of patients surviving into adulthood increases. Recent reports have suggested that care is best provided in specialist centres because of longer survival. Recent changes in the National Health Service funding and delivery of service may advers
