Résumé
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a muco-obstructive lung disease characterized by thick sputum with abnormal rheological properties. The intermittent intrapulmonary deflation (IID) is a new instrumental airway clearance technique (ACT) that aims to decrease the sputum viscoelastic properties. This study assessed the benefits of adding the IID technique to a conventional ACT in patients with CF hospitalized for intravenous antibiotic therapy. Participants with CF accustomed to autogenic drainage (AD) as their standard ACT received, in a randomized order, a 30-min session of either AD alone or AD combined with IID (AD+IID). Sputum was collected during each ACT regimens and for a 24-hour period following both sessions. Sputum wet weight, dry weight, solids content and rheological properties were analyzed. Cough events occurring during and over 2 h post ACT were compared between both regimens. Seventeen patients with CF (aged 29 ± 11 years; FEV In participants with CF accustomed to AD, adding the IID technique in combination to AD does not confer a clear benefit on airway clearance in the short term. Clinical Trials register: NCT04157972.
