    Abstract Children with CF are living longer than ever before, and thus issues pertaining to quality of life rather than just longevity of life need to be addressed by the entire healthcare team. This article addressed the issues pertaining to the external support of the dysfunctional internal organs: the secondary musculoskeletal (postural) and neuromuscular control deficits that occur to the maturing child with CF. The research pointed towards starting PT interventions for these deficits during the pre-pubescent phase when postural deficits were just emerging, but a suggestion was also made to explore whether these deficits can be even more effectively monitored and treated at an earlier age. The dual relationship between the muscles used to meet the increased respiratory demands of CF and the normal postural demands of physical activities was described through a model based on a soda-pop can and pressure support. A pre-pubescent child with a typical progression of CF was presented as a case report to illustrate how a PT programme that was focused on postural deficits could be implemented and what type of outcomes might be possible. The child made significant changes within a relatively short time frame of 4 months, proposing that the musculoskeletal and neuromuscular systems may play a significant role in the medical and physical long-term outcomes of CF. For that reason, the physical as well as medical needs of the patient should be incorporated into a comprehensive multi-system approach to the disease across the lifespan.

    Abstract Background: Thoracolumbosacral orthoses (TLSOs) are effective in their intended purpose of limiting spinal movement but tend to restrict rib cage and abdominal motion. Incorporating an abdominal cutout, allowing abdominal excursion, may reduce the restraint on abdominal expansion associated with inhalation and thereby reduce pulmonary compromise.
    Questions/purposes: (1) For healthy adults, does a TLSO restrict pulmonary function at rest and after exercise compared with no TLSO (control)? (2) At rest, is pulmonary function increased by adding an abdominal cutout to the TLSO (open) compared with a traditional closed TLSO (no abdominal cutout)? (3) Are those results similar after exercise?
    Methods: Twenty healthy adults wore a custom-molded TLSO with a reattachable abdominal cutout. Forced vital capacity (FVC) and forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) were recorded at rest and after exercise in three conditions: (1) no TLSO (control); (2) TLSO (closed); and (3) TLSO (open).
    Results: Wearing a TLSO (closed or open) reduced FVC and FEV1 similarly at rest (p < 0.001) and after exercise (p < 0.001) compared with controls. Adding an abdominal cutout (open) to the TLSO increased FVC at rest (95% confidence interval [CI], 3.79-4.76; p = 0.007) and postexercise (95% CI, 3.80-4.73; p = 0.025) compared with the closed TLSO, and FEV1 increased postexercise (95% CI, 3.01-3.76; p = 0.02) but not at rest (95% CI, 2.96-3.73; p = 0.053).
    Conclusions: TLSOs restrict pulmonary function in healthy adults. An abdominal cutout in the TLSO increased pulmonary function, especially with activity, suggesting that cutouts should be considered when fabricating TLSOs for individuals with compromised breathing such as with neuromuscular disorders, scoliosis, or spine surgery.
