====== Fatigue (CDC) ====== The [[https://www.cdc.gov/me-cfs/index.html|Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)]] symptom inventory for [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chronic_fatigue_syndrome|chronic fatigue syndrome]] (CFS or ME) is aimed to assess whether a person meets the CDC diagnostic criteria for (CFS)((van't Leven M et al. (2010). Fatigue and chronic fatigue syndrome-like complaints in the general population. European Journal of Public Health 20: 251-257)) ([[sections|section]]: [[diseases & symptoms]]).\\ Note that Lifelines also assesses (chronic) fatigue using the [[fatigue (CIS)|CIS]] and [[general health (PROMIS)|PROMIS]] instruments plus some [[fatigue (general)|general questions]]. An [[cfs_diagnostic_score|CFS diagnostic score]] according to the CDC has been developed and is available for use. ===== Background ===== Lifelines repeatedly assessed the presence of CFS/ME by [[fatigue (general)|self-report]]. However, recent studies indicate that this method misses ~90% of the CFS diagnoses((Warren JW, Clauw DJ (2012). Functional somatic syndromes: sensitivities and specificities of self-reports of physician diagnosis. Psychosomatic Medicine 74(9):891-895)). The CDC symptom survey improves the identification of participants that meet the diagnostic criteria for CFS/ME by assessing the presence of individual symptoms rather than the disease itself. The CDC symptom survey was developed in English and translated in Dutch ((Ruud CW Vermeulen (2006) Translation and validation of the Dutch language version of the CDC Symptom Inventory for assessment of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS). Population Health Metrics 4(12) )).\\ The CDC symptom survey as used in Lifelines assesses 8 symptoms that are part of the diagnostic criteria for CSF, plus a question regarding depressive feelings in the last 6 months to increase the diagnostic value.\\ To assess fatigue, the core symptom of CFS, an additional question was asked in conjuction to the CDC (see [[fatigue (general)|here]]).\\ ===== Validation ===== The validation of the CDC symptom survey is described here((Wagner et al. (2005) Psychometric properties of the CDC Symptom Inventory for assessment of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.
