Abstract
Diagnosis of bronchiectasis has increased with broader availability of high-resolution CT scanning. Early diagnosis and development of a patient-specific exercise and airway clearance regimen and a pathogen eradication and suppression plan are key to successful treatment. Management can be shared by GPs in co-operation with a specialist respiratory physician and respiratory physiotherapist.
