Description of intervention(s) / exposure
This study will assess habitual physical activity participation in adults with Cystic Fibrosis over a 12 month period. Physical activity will be assessed using a bi-axial accelerometer (Sensewear Armband [Bodymedia]). Participants will be assessed at baseline and 12 months. Measures of respiratory function, quality of life, intention to exercise and exercise capacity will be performed prior to the wearing of the activity monitor for a period of 5 to 7 days.

By measuring physical activity in this way we will be able to objectively quantify physical activity participation in adults with CF over a prolonged period. Additionally, we hope to identify the presence of clinical or demographic characteristics which determine long-term participation in physical activity; To examine the effect of a respiratory exacerbation requiring IV antibiotics on physical activity participation, as compared to baseline, in adults with CF; and, to ascertain what relationship exists between change in respiratory function and change in physical activity participation over time.
