ABSTRACT
Nowdays adults with cystic fibrosis are no more attended in pediatric centers. Transition from pediatric to adult care centers must be anticipated. It requires the preparation of patients and families and a cooperation between both teams. Now, there are more patients and they are healthier. Adults centers caregivers have to pay particular attention to new young patients, to manage cystic fibrosis adult issues and to deal with more frequent comorbidities and severe complications. Adults centers will need better resources to maintain good quality of cares and improved life expectancy.
