Attend this event to gain a comprehensive understanding of what fatigue is, from it's theorised neural pathophysiological basis to what it means for patients from varying backgrounds. We will consider the role fatigue may play in other medical conditions, as well as the different management strategies currently available for patients.
Lastly, we will discuss fatigue and burnout in healthcare staff, a pressing topic for the NHS as it battles the continuing effects of the pandemic.
Fatigue is something many clinicians come across in their practice, but one we are ill equipped to deal with, which is why a dedicated meeting such as this is so important.
