Fatigue is the most frequent symptom in palliative cancer patients and has a very negative impact on patients' daily life. It is a subjective and multidimensional phenomenon, negatively influencing the patient's energy, physical and mental capacity and psychological state. Few studies on fatigue in palliative patients have been carried out, and research in this area is needed, including an evaluation of interventions to correct potential aetiologies of fatigue (e.g. anaemia, depression, anorexia) and an evaluation of the symptomatic therapies, pharmacological as well as non-pharmacological.
疲劳是姑息治疗癌症患者最常见的症状，对患者的日常生活有非常负面的影响。它是一种主观的多维度现象，会对患者的精力、身心能力和心理状态产生负面影响。关于姑息治疗患者疲劳的研究很少，这一领域需要开展研究，包括评估纠正疲劳潜在病因（如贫血、抑郁、厌食）的干预措施以及评估对症治疗，包括药物治疗和非药物治疗。
