The UK Cystic Fibrosis Registry is a national, secure, centralized database sponsored and managed by the Cystic Fibrosis Trust, with UK National Health Service (NHS) research ethics approval and consent from each person for whom data are collected. First established in 1995, it records longitudinal health data on all people with cystic fibrosis (CF) in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland, and to date has captured data on over 12 000 individuals. Cystic fibrosis is an inherited, chronic, progressive condition occurring in around 1 in 2500 live births in the UK, with around 200–300 new diagnoses annually. Children are generally diagnosed in the first few months of life with universal newborn screening being implemented in 2007 in the UK, though some people are diagnosed into adulthood. For instance, 29 people aged over 16 years were diagnosed with CF in the UK in 2015. 1 Patients diagnosed with CF subsequently require intensive support from family and health care services. Most patients die prematurely from their disease through respiratory failure, and in the 1930 s and 40 s survival beyond childhood was rare. 2 There have been impressive improvements in survival over subsequent decades; for instance, the median life expectancy of children with cystic fibrosis born in 1990 was estimated to be 40 years, double that of estimates 20 years earlier. 3 In the UK, children with CF are treated in one of 33 specialist centres (associated with over 100 smaller network clinics). At between 16 years and 18 years of age, children transfer to one of 27 adult specialist centres. All centres and network clinics routinely collect data in a standardized fashion. When patients with CF attend a new CF centre in the UK, they or their parents consent to information on their health and treatment being collected and stored in the CF Registry. The patient information and consent form also covers the issue of linking registry data to the UK Office for National Statistics. When transitioning to adult services, the young adult is given the opportunity to confirm or withdraw consent. People with CF will also reconsent if they change their primary centre of care.
