Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD) - Well State
Subjects with confirmed PCD in Well State

Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD) - Sick State
Subjects with confirmed PCD in Sick State

- Mean FEV1 Percent Predicted Values in Well State and Sick State [ Time Frame: 12 months ]Forced expired volume in 1 second (FEV1) will be assessed by percentage of the predicted value (0-100%).
- Mean Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia-Quality of Life Score in Well State and Sick State [ Time Frame: 12 months ]Domains (scales) include physical, emotional, social, school and role functioning; treatment burden; ears and hearing; upper and lower respiratory symptoms; and vitality. The recall period is one week and responses are rated on a 4-point Likert scale.
- Mean PCD-Respiratory Symptom Diary Score Well State and Sick State [ Time Frame: 12 months ]The PCD-RSD contains 17 items, 10 on symptoms and 7 on social/emotional impact. The recall period is 24 hours and 15 questions are rated on a 5-point Likert Scale, while two questions are binary (Range: 0-62, 0 being the best and 62 being the worst).
