Summary

This study tests a new device called the micro Sweat Test Patch (µSTP) that measures chloride levels in sweat to help diagnose and monitor cystic fibrosis (CF). Researchers will compare the patch to the standard sweat test in 300 people, from newborns to adults, at clinics in Atlanta. The goal is to see if the patch is accurate and causes less skin irritation.
