2019, Paediatric Respiratory ReviewsCitation Excerpt :Dell reported that PCD is a rare disease that ends up being unnoticed during medical education and receives very little research [7]. Mirra et al. reported that current PCD treatment has no foundation based on randomized clinical trials [10], but treatment is extrapolated from other diseases [18], such as cystic fibrosis [5,19] or idiopathic bronchiectasis [8]. The European Respiratory Society [ERS], in a consensus statement on the diagnostic and treatment approaches for PCD patients recommended conducting large clinical trials in order to improve current recommendations [6].
Fitness and lung function in children with primary ciliary dyskinesia and cystic fibrosis
2018, Respiratory MedicineCitation Excerpt :Incredible progress in the overall health and survival of CF patients has been achieved through extensive research carried out over recent decades [6]. Major shortcomings persist in the evidence regarding management and care for PCD [7,8]. Cardiopulmonary fitness assessed based on peak oxygen uptake (VO2peak) is widely used to predict morbidity and mortality in disease and in health, as this measurement provides important information that is not obtained from standard pulmonary function tests [9].

2016, Revue des Maladies RespiratoiresCitation Excerpt :The treatment is based on expert opinions, as in many rare diseases [2], and is centered on the pediatric management. Most treatments are proposed by analogy with those used in (idiopathic or secondary) bronchiectasis [45] or in cystic fibrosis [110]. The current treatment is based on chest physiotherapy, antibiotics and avoidance of risky behaviors (active or passive smoking).
