Assessing Fatigue Severity in Patients

The fatigue severity scale (FSS) questionnaire will be used to assess the fatigue status of patients at baseline and post-intervention through a face-to-face interview. This questionnaire contains 9 questions each ranging from 1 (strong disagreement) to 7 (strong agreement) with an overall score of 9–63. Patients will be interpreted further as with mild, moderate, and severe fatigue for a total point of 0–21, 22–42, and 43–63, respectively [30 (link)]. This questionnaire was validated among the Iranian population previously [31 ].

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
