About this trial

This study is a randomized controlled trial designed to evaluate the effectiveness of an 8-week tele-rehabilitation program in adults with cystic fibrosis. Cystic fibrosis is a chronic condition that affects the lungs and can lead to reduced muscle mass, physical weakness, frailty, and decreased quality of life.

Participants will be randomly assigned to either a tele-rehabilitation group or a usual care group. The tele-rehabilitation program includes supervised exercise sessions conducted remotely three times per week using video communication. The program combines aerobic and resistance training based on established rehabilitation guidelines.

The primary aim of the study is to assess the effect of the program
