abstract = {Due to its complexity, the management of cancer-related
fatigue (CRF) is best based on an inter-disciplinary care
approach. Thus, we examined the preferred and the actual
distribution of responsibilities from the perspectives of
healthcare professionals and patients.An online survey was
conducted among physicians (N =148), nurses (N =184), and
psycho-oncologists (N =144) in Germany. The participants
evaluated a series of statements and selected the
professional disciplines that they deemed most responsible
for specific tasks in CRF management. Data were complemented
with the patient perspective. Experiences of cancer patients
(N =1,179) were assessed by questionnaires. Data from the
healthcare professional and patient perspective were
analyzed descriptively. For comparisons between professional
groups, Kruskal-Wallis H tests and subsequent
Dunn-Bonferroni tests were used.Healthcare professionals and
patients agreed on a lack of interdisciplinary collaboration
on CRF. Professionals valued the necessity of addressing CRF
and educating patients, which was not mirrored in patient
experiences. Physicians in aftercare and rehabilitation were
overall perceived as main actors in CRF management. Nurses
and psycho-oncologists frequently considered their own
discipline as responsible in most of the tasks.It is
necessary not only to define task-related responsibilities
in standardized operating procedures, but to foster
interprofessional collaboration in the management of CRF.},
