Practical Considerations for Recognizing, Diagnosing, and Managing Non-Cystic Fibrosis Bronchiectasis: A Care Team Forum®

Program Overview

The goal of this activity is to raise awareness of and educate on the diagnostic testing and multifaceted management essential for patients with NCFBE. Clinicians will learn about the important role of neutrophil serine proteases (NSPs) in NCFBE pathophysiology, including emerging therapies that target neutrophilic inflammation. An experienced patient with NCFBE shares her difficult diagnostic and therapeutic journey and provides impactful insights for clinical care.
