A complicated association between two different genetic rare disorders: cystic fibrosis and spinal muscular atrophy

BackgroundPersonalised airway clearance techniques are commonly recommended to augment mucus clearance in chronic suppurative lung diseases. It is unclear what current literature tells us about how airway clearance regimens should be personalised. This scoping review explores current research on airway clearance technique in chronic suppurative lung diseases, to establish the extent and type of guidance in this area, identify knowledge gaps and determine the factors which physiotherapists should consider when personalising airway clearance regimens.MethodsSystematic searching of online databases (MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, PEDro, Cochrane, Web of Science) was used to identify full-text publications in the last 25 years that described methods of personalising airway clearance techniques in chronic suppurative lung diseases. Items from the TIDieR framework provideda prioricategories which were modified based on the initial data to develop a “Best-fit” framework for data charting. The findings were subsequently transformed into a personalisation model.ResultsA broad range of publications were identified, most commonly general review papers (44%). The items identified were grouped into seven personalisation factors: physical, psychosocial, ACT type, procedures, dosage, response, and provider. As only two divergent models of airway clearance technique personalisation were found, the personalisation factors identified were then used to develop a model for physiotherapists.ConclusionsThe personalisation of airway clearance regimens is widely discussed amongst current literature which provides a range of factors that should be considered. This review summarises the current literature, organising findings into a proposed airway clearance personalisation model, to provide clarity in this field.
