Abstract
Fatigue was common in hospitalized patients with advanced cancer and the majority were anaemic. Based on these data, monitoring and treating fatigue and anaemia over a ten-day hospital stay seem to be supported. The variable trajectories call for interventions carefully tailored to individual patients. The results should be considered as a first step to exploring fatigue in these patients.
