Abstract

Purpose

A multi-centre, longitudinal study was conducted to assess the prevalence of fatigue amongst men with localized prostate cancer, to describe several dimensions of fatigue and to explore the predictability of fatigue by psychological distress and physical function.

Methods

The prevalence of fatigue was evaluated using the Multidimensional Fatigue Inventory in 329 prostate cancer patients before, 3, 6 and 12 months after surgery. Psychological distress was assessed using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale. Physical function was measured using the EORTC QLQ-C30.

Results

After surgery, about 14 % of the patients were screened with chronic fatigue. For all dimensions of fatigue, only small longitudinal changes could be observed. Psychological distress could be identified as a good predictor of fatigue after but not before surgery.

Conclusions

Radical prostatectomy has no or little impact on the prevalence of fatigue. However, about 14 % of patients with chronic fatigue could possibly benefit from psychosomatic interventions. Interventions should consider the simultaneous appearance of fatigue and psychological distress and a reduced physical function.
