Five tools were used, namely Tool I: Personal and medical data sheet, Tool II: Self-reported practice questionnaire, Tool III: Care adherence scale, Tool IV: Barriers to treatment adherence scale and Tool V: Cystic Fibrosis Self Efficacy-Questionnaire. Study results shows that; less than three-quarters of the studied parents had poor levels of adherence to educational protocol, which improved to most of them had good levels of adherence at post and follow-up compliance educational protocol implementation.
