Clinical measures for general fatigue in non-oncologic medical conditions.
Clinical Measure |
Fatigue Dimension(s) | Medical Condition(s) | Statistical Findings |
---|---|---|---|
Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire (FIQ) | General Fatigue | Fibromyalgia (Ablin et al., 2010; Ericsson et al., 2013) | N/A |
Numerical Rating Scales (NRS) | General Fatigue | Primary Biliary Cirrhosis (Zangi et al., 2012) | N/A |
Fatigue Catastrophizing Scale | General Fatigue | Crohn's Disease (van Erp et al., 2017) | N/A |
Fatigue Severity Scale (FSS) | General Fatigue | Myotonic Dystrophy (Baldanzi et al., 2017) | Total FSS score (mean ± sd) was 43.6 ± 12.4 and was significantly associated to: total muscle impairment as assessed by the Medical Research Council (r = −0.496; p = 0.01); handgrip maximal voluntary contractions (MVC) at baseline (r = −0.583; p < 0.01); MVC_60% (r = −0.534; p < 0.05). |
Note. Column sorting order: For “Clinical Measure,” the most frequently used clinical measure was listed first with the others based on descending frequency. Columns for “Fatigue Dimension(s),” “Medical Condition(s),” and “Statistical Findings” have an A – Z sorting order.N/A = no statistical findings for domain differentiation reported in included articles.
