- The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence of fatigue among lung recipients 1–5 years after transplantation (LuTx) and to explore its relationship to distressing symptoms such as dyspnea, sleep problems, pain, and decreased appetite, as well as psychological and transplant specific wellbeing. A cross-sectional, multicenter cohort study was conducted. A total of 117 lung recipients with a mean age of 54 years (SD 13 years) who were due for their annual follow-up were included at 1 year (n=35), 2 years (n=28), 3 years (n=23), 4 years (n=20), and 5 years (n=11) after lung transplantation.
