Summary

Mucus clearance is impaired in cystic fibrosis. Inhaled surfactants may reduce adhesive forces between mucus and airway surfaces and improve mucus clearance. This in turn my improve lung health. The investigators propose to measure mucus clearance before and after lucinactant or vehicle administration in patients with cystic fibrosis.
