Timeline
Interventions
'Fatigue Facts \& Fixes' is an evidence based educational resource for adolescents with cancer. It is a bright colored laminated 8.5x11 double sided page. One side features information on cancer-related fatigue: "Why am I so tired?" (description of cancer-related fatigue); "What causes fatigue?" (contributing factors - environmental, personal/behavioral, cultural/family/other, and treatment-related); and "What can help me to not be so tired?" (alleviating factors - environmental, personal/behavioral, cultural/family/other, and treatment-related). The other side is a 'Do Not Disturb' sign with a pillow graphic which adolescents can use in the hospital or at home when they need some quiet time and which may also serve to attract their interest to the resource.
