Advance care planning in adolescents with cystic fibrosis: A quality improvement project.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Patients with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) may require tracheostomy for long-term mechanical ventilation. Polysomnography (PSG) may predict successful decannulation in children, however it is unclear how this success compares with children without a PSG. To better evaluate this role, we compared decannul...
