Description
CYSTICFIEV identifies those sample children whom a doctor or other health professional ever diagnosed as having Cystic Fibrosis.
The Field Representative's Manual for 2001 forward defined Cystic Fibrosis as "an inherited disorder of the exocrine glands, affecting infants and children. Symptoms can include a distended abdomen, diarrhea, malnutrition, and repeated incidence of respiratory infections." This definition was not routinely shared with respondents.
