Cancer-related fatigue is a subjective sensation of uncontrollable physical, emotional and/or cognitive tiredness and weakness, which occurs in the context of cancer or cancer-treatment. Cancer-related fatigue occurs at all stages of cancer treatment and can persist long after medical treatment. It profoundly affects patients' quality of life and limits their personal, social, and occupational lives. Cancer-related fatigue is also associated with significant levels of distress, and it imposes financial burdens by limiting a patient's ability to work. Current psychosocial interventions with strong or sufficient evidence include physical training, cognitive-behavioral training, relaxation techniques, psychoeducation and patient education. This article gives an overview of currently available psychosocial interventions and information on their implementation.
癌症相关疲劳是一种主观上无法控制的身体、情绪和/或认知上的疲倦与虚弱感,它发生在癌症或癌症治疗过程中。癌症相关疲劳在癌症治疗的各个阶段都会出现,并且在治疗结束后可能会持续很长时间。它会严重影响患者的生活质量,限制他们的个人、社交和职业生活。癌症相关疲劳还与显著的痛苦程度相关联,并且由于限制了患者的工作能力而带来经济负担。目前有充分或有力证据支持的心理社会干预措施包括体育锻炼、认知行为训练、放松技巧、心理教育和患者教育。本文概述了当前可用的心理社会干预措施及其实施信息。
