How to identify fatigue in stroke patients: an investigation of the post-stroke fatigue case definition validity.
Conclusions: The case definition was valid and had a substantial inter-rater agreement. A score ≥ 5 using the Fatigue Severity Scale-7 or a score ≥ 12 using the Multidimensional Fatigue Inventory-20 (General Fatigue subscale) may be used to detect potentially debilitating post-stroke fatigue in stroke survivors.
