[Fatigue after head and neck cancer-results of a survey using the Multidimensional Fatigue Inventory (MFI-20)].
CONCLUSION: Fatigue represents a very profound and prolonged impairment for the patients of our study. Since fatigue can still be present a long time after completion of treatment, patients should be asked about it specifically using a standardized inventory during follow-up. In order to cope with fatigue syndrome, specific therapeutic recommendations aimed at activation, such as regular physical activity, nutritional advice, and complementary measures, can be made.
