Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Children and adolescents between 6 and 15 years old, with confirmed CF diagnosis, and being followed up at the HIJG reference center, clinically stable, who are not hospitalized or with indication for admission at the time of data collection will be included in the research. To participate in the study, parents or guardians must present the free and informed consent form (ICF) and the child or adolescent must consent to participate, by signing the free and informed consent form.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Immediate effect of TEF on respiratory mechanics parameters in children and adolescents with CF. It will be performed in the pre-FET, post-huff and post-FET moments using the impulse oscillometry (IOS) system presented in kilopascals-kPa and in percentages of the predicted. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Parameters of respiratory mechanics in patients with CF presented episodes of coughing during the protocol and those that did not. Anthropometric data of mass in kilogram-kg and height in meters-m and BMI in kg / m2). Score of clinical scores for clinical stability (CFCS and CFFS). | — |
