Cancer‐related fatigue and sleep
This section discusses and describes the cancer‐related fatigue (CRF) and sleep disturbances that patients often experience because of their treatment. It recommends approaches and techniques that may help in the management of these symptoms. The key focus is management because there is no one set solution or quick‐fix, one‐size, fits‐all answer. The management of these symptoms requires an approach that assesses, reviews and monitors the individual patient's progress.
This section will discuss first CRF and then sleep.
