2. What is cancer-related fatigue
The National Comprehensive Cancer Network definition(NCCN):
• “A distressing, persistent, subjective sense of tiredness or
exhaustion related to cancer or cancer treatment that is not
proportional to recent activity and interferes with usual
functioning.”

3. Acute Fatigue vs. Cancer-Related Fatigue
‘Healthy’ Fatigue Cancer-related Fatigue
• Acute •Chronic
• Relieved by sleep and rest •Not completely relieved by sleep and rest
• Has an identifiable cause •Severe
•Mechanism poorly understood
3
4. Prevalence
• 70-100% of cancer patients are affected by CRF during
treatment
• For 30% or more, it can linger long after treatment is
completed
• Many people are fully functioning prior to cancer
diagnosis
• Treatment leads to:
− Reduced strength and endurance, fatigue, cognitive impairments
and pain
− Difficulty returning to previous activities and responsibilities

4 adults. Cochrane Database System Review. 2008:CD006145
5. Fatigue Affects Quality of Life
Daily activities affected included:
• Walking distances • Social activities with friends/family
• Cleaning the house • Climbing stairs

12
13. PT sessions

on Exercise Guidelines for Cancer Survivors
Exercise during and after cancer treatment is safe and
positively impacts:
• Aerobic capacity
• Quality of Life
• Body composition

• Strength
• Function

15. OT sessions
• Occupational Therapy:
− Energy management training
• Planning for physical and “brain” rest break
• Pacing, delegating
− Cognitive compensatory strategies
• Mapping strategies for organization of thoughts
• Problem-solving to beak down tasks into manageable parts

17. How to Manage Fatigue (The Basics)
Banking and Budgeting your Energy
• Banking your energy = • Budgeting your energy =
saving energy when you deciding how to spend
can your energy
•The goal is to put energy in the •The goal is to spend energy on
bank by resting what is important to you
•Deposit energy by resting to •It can be hard to decide how to
strengthen your account use your energy
•Save energy so you can do the •Think about your activities and
things you want and need to do how much energy they require
•Always keep a little energy in the
bank for emergencies or special
17
occasions
18. Who is Fairview Cancer Rehab for?

to rest
• Diminished concentration or memory
• Difficulty completing daily tasks

20. Case Study Continued
Impairments
• Cognitive and physical fatigue
• Cognitive changes with decreased short term
memory
• Weakness:
-Decreased shoulder strength
-Decreased leg strength
-Decreased endurance on 6 min walk test

21. Case Study Continued
Treatment: Occupational Therapy
− Energy management training
− Cognitive compensatory strategies
21
22. Case Study Continued
Treatment: Physical Therapy
-Education on how to increase aerobic capacity without undue fatigue
using bike and eliptical machines
-Training in slow progression in weight lifting to avoid lymphedema and
undue muscle soreness.
-Myofascial release to R shoulder, upper ¼.
22
24. Case Study Continued
Discharge Status Physical Functioning
• 6 minute walk test at 97% of norm
• Leg press increased from 80# to 120# (90%of norm)
• Able to vacuum, carry groceries
• Returned to health club for weight lifting and aerobic workouts 3x
week.
24
26. What can you do today?
Begin a walking program
•Start walking once each day for 3-5 minutes, at a perceived exertion
of 11-13 (light to somewhat hard)
•Add 1-2 minutes every 3 days with a goal of 30 minutes most days of
the week. As you increase the amount of time, gradually increase your
pace so you are working at a “somewhat hard” pace with perceived
exertion of 12-14
•When you feel like you need a nap, try a short walk
26
27. What can you do today?
• Decrease unnecessary muscle tension
• Strengthen your legs
-Find a chair with arms and push it up against the wall. Using your
arms as little as possible, see how many times you can go from
sitting to standing in 30 seconds
-Repeat it every other day and keep track of improvement

KARL -Often patients aren’t given education on how to return to a healthy lifestyle after treatment. -Many patients may accept decreased function as the price they have to pay for getting rid of the cancer
MEGAN Telephone survey of 6, 125 households in the United States identified as having a member with cancer. Patients reporting fatigue at least a few times a month were asked a series of questions to better describe their fatigue and its impact on quality of life. Of those reporting fatigue Ninety-one percent of those who experienced fatigue reported that it prevented a "normal" life, and 88% indicated that fatigue caused an alteration in their daily routine
MEGAN Barriers: feel that it is inevitable, feel that som one would ask about it if it was important,

MEGAN Aerobic assess: 6 min walk/TUG, eval soft tissue restrictions, check for lymphedema Individualized tx based on former activity level and current status. Use of Nu-step, treadmill, weight machines. 2-3 x week for some 1 x eval for others.
Megan Pts told to rest…get weaker. Prescribing ex counterintuitive.. But research shows that it can reduce fatigue and improve function. You can’t sit still waiting to feel better. Am College of Sports Med released guidelines for exercise for cancer survivors for the 1 st time in July 2010. They concluded that exercise is safe during and after tx for cancer and that it positively impacts: aerobic…qol…
