Can you help with research on cancer related fatigue?
March 2010
Researchers in Trinity College Dublin are investigating the
causes of cancer fatigue and the factors that contribute to the
development of chronic fatigue in some cancer patients. The study
is funded by the Irish Cancer Society and the IRCSET 'Embark
Initiative'.
Who can participate?
Anyone who (a) has been treated for cancer or is currently being
treated for cancer and (b) is experiencing fatigue.
What does participation involve?
Participation involves filling in a number of questionnaires about
your fatigue, the factors you believe contribute to your fatigue,
and the coping strategies you use to manage this symptom.
How can I participate?
If you would like to participate please complete this online
questionnaire: http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/CancerFatigueStudy
If you would prefer to complete the questionnaire in hard copy
or if you would like further information, please contact the
researcher: Maria Pertl (Phone: 01 896 3083 / E-mail:
