Summary
Brief summary
Adult cystic fibrosis (CF) patients admitted with an acute infection complicated by acid-base
disturbance and decreased ventilation will be studied.

They will receive salt replacement to correct the acid-base disturbance and possibly their
ventilation.

Assessment of symptoms (questionnaire), acid-base and electrolyte status (blood and urine
tests) ventilation (overnight oxygen and carbon dioxide monitoring non-invasively) and
sleep-wake pattern (actigraphy) will be carried out.

Study hypothesis: Acute volume and electrolyte replacement corrects hypochloremic hypovolemic
metabolic alkalosis and compensatory hypoventilation/ hypercapnia in acute exacerbations of
cystic fibrosis.
