Advancing Mental Healthcare for Individuals With Cystic Fibrosis in Low‐ and Middle‐Income Countries

Addressing these inequities requires integrating mental health care into routine CF management, even in resource-limited settings. Low-cost strategies such as regular mental health screening, translating available CF-specific mental health resources, and the provision of brief interventions via digital and internet-based technologies show promise for sustainable implementation. This review underscores the need for increased research in LMIC contexts and the development of scalable interventions that address both physical and psychological dimensions of CF. Ensuring parity with high-income countries demands recognition of mental health as a core component of CF care.
