Energy Conservation+Problem Solving Therapy

The intervention was delivered by telephone. Each EC+PST intervention session was planned to last approximately 45 minutes and occur twice a week for up to 4 weeks. Sessions terminated when the participants identified and solved two fatigue-related problems of their choice or had participated in the intervention for eight sessions. A Participant Workbook was used throughout the intervention. During eight intervention sessions, participants identified two fatigue-related problems and solutions for them, implemented the solution plans, and reviewed the implementations.
