Resum	The Brief Fatigue Inventory is a 9-item patient self-report instrument specifically designed for rapid, repeated assessment of cancer-related fatigue severity and its functional impact. Developed by Mendoza, Cleeland, and colleagues at M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in 1999, the BFI is optimized for use in busy oncology clinics, allowing comprehensive fatigue profiling in 2–3 minutes without sacrificing clinical validity.	The Edmonton Symptom Assessment System is a rapid, validated 9-item tool that assesses the severity of common symptoms in cancer and palliative care patients: pain, tiredness, nausea, depression, anxiety, drowsiness, appetite loss, general well-being, and shortness of breath. Developed by Bruera and colleagues at the University of Alberta in 1991, the ESAS has become the standard symptom-screening instrument in oncology clinics, palliative care units, and end-of-life care settings worldwide, enabling efficient symptom prioritization and management escalation.
