Review Article: A Systematic Review of Cancer-Related Fatigue Measurement Questionnaires



Discussion:
Most tools had been validated in mixed populations and are relatively insensitive to differences in fatigue to cancer stage. Most instruments are burdensome for those with advanced cancer.


Conclusions:
In all, 40 CRF instruments were identified. Validity and reliability varied by questionnaire. The ideal item numbers, scale, and domains are not established and may be population dependent.
