In the UK over 10 000 people live with cystic fibrosis (CF), with 1-in-25 people being carriers of the disease. Multidisciplinary care is provided by tertiary care CF centres, with or without local secondary service shared care agreements. There are still, however, several reasons why CF sufferers or their families present to their GPs. This article aims to provide a brief overview of CF and its management. It also gives the information needed to guide patients about genetic testing and neonatal screening for the disease.
