OLEP; The FACIT-Fatigue is a 13-item, self-administered assessment of an individual's level of fatigue during their usual daily activities over the past week. This questionnaire is part of the FACIT measurement system, a compilation of questions measuring health-related QoL in participants with cancer and other chronic illnesses. The FACIT-Fatigue items are measured with a 5-point Likert scale ranging from 0 (not at all) to 4 (very much). Scores range from 0 to 52, with higher scores indicating less fatigue. A 5-point change is considered clinically meaningful.
