Key Points

  • To explore the feasibility and methodological considerations of home microbiological sampling for pediatric cystic fibrosis care.
  • Assessment of current evidence regarding home microbiological sampling feasibility.
  • Identification of necessary methodological improvements for future studies.
  • Emphasis on standardised protocols and documentation of antimicrobial exposure.
  • Future studies should include same-day sampling designs to enhance diagnostic accuracy.
  • Standardised protocols are crucial for effective integration into clinical practice.
  • The current approach demonstrates potential but requires rigorous evaluation.

Abstract

While current evidence supports the feasibility of homebase microbiological sampling in paediatric CF care, important methodological considerations remain. Future perspective studies incorporating standardised protocols, documentation of antimicrobial exposure, and page same-day sampling designs are needed to more rigorously assess diagnostic equivalent and informed in integration into routine clinical practice.
