[Cancer Related Fatigue in Rehabilitation Care].

Die Rehabilitation 2017 October
Aim of the study was to provide information about the prevalence of cancer related fatigue and the association between treatment-related factors and fatigue in cancer patients during the rehabilitation care. In a multicenter study 693 cancer patients (27% breast cancer, 17% prostate cancer etc.) completed the Multidimensional Fatigue Inventory (MFI-20) and sociodemographic and treatment information was noted. 51% of the patients suffer from fatigue (n=356). Fatigue prevalence differed according to tumour localization (p≤0.001). There was a substantial association between fatigue and treatment condition in terms of the combination of surgery and radiation (p≤0.05). Fatigue was high prevalent in patients in the rehabilitation care. Thus, fatigue should be routinely screened and after differentiated diagnostics be considered in rehabilitation care plans.
