Abstract:Purpose Contrary to guidelines, many cancer patients are not screened for cancer-related fatigue (CRF) and do not receive information or adequate treatment. As physicians play a key role in cancer therapy, their knowledge of this common sequela and perspectives on its management are of major interest. Methods For an online survey, physicians working in oncology in Germany were systematically drawn from registers and invited by using institutional newsletters or colleagues. Descriptive analyses, logistic regression analysis of physicians’ knowledge, and Mann‒Whitney U tests were performed. Results Two-thirds of the 148 surveyed physicians felt (rather) well informed about CRF and capable of counseling patients. Only 32% of the sample were aware of CRF-specific guidelines. Despite of this, participants rated the scientific evidence for recommending physical activity, exercise programs, and psychotherapeutic interventions in accordance with guidelines as being mostly (very) strong. However, despite 82.4% of the physicians being (rather) aware of its evidence, only 56.1% often to almost always recommended psychotherapeutic interventions. CRF was rarely covered in medical studies and medical specialist training. The completion of advanced training for palliative care increased the likelihood of knowing guidelines (OR = 2.6, 95% CI [1.1-6.0], p < 0.05). Suggestions for improving training included the mandatory coverage of CRF in medical training or its consideration in interprofessional supportive care workshops. Conclusion Although awareness and recommendation rates were adequate for some interventions in CRF treatment (such as physical activity), there were lower recommendation rates for others, including psychotherapy. Studies are required assessing for the reasons of this knowledge-to-practice gap. Moreover, training is needed among physicians in order to enhance knowledge of CRF guidelines.
