Systematic review: the impact of inflammatory bowel disease-related fatigue on health-related quality of life
Fatigue is frequently reported in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and impacts on health-related quality of life. HRQoL has not been systematically reviewed in IBD fatigue. Psychosocial factors, symptom management and acceptance and physical activity levels have significant impact on HRQOL. Results support application of psychosocial or exercise interventions for fatigue management. Further exploration of HRQeL factors in IBS fatigue is required.
