QJM: An International Journal of Medicine, 07/28/09
Jones DEJ et al. – Perceived fatigue is similar between patient groups. Increasing scores were not related to simply reaching the maximum threshold in the physical domain. Studies have confirmed a positive–structured approach to symptom management in one fatigue–associated chronic disease, primary biliary cirrhosis, leads to significant improvements in quality of life. The authors suggest that, with a similar approach, the same might be true in other chronic diseases where moderate fatigue is a significant problem.
