Chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD) is a serious complication after lung transplantation (LuTx) and is associated with elevated proportions of neutrophils in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL). Induced sputum is a less-invasive sampling method than BAL and assesses markers of inflammation on the surfaces of large central airways. We wanted to examine whether % neutrophil levels in induced sputum were elevated prior to CLAD diagnosis among LuTx recipients, and whether sputum markers of inflammation can be used as a to
