The '''CDC 2005 Symptom Inventory for CFS''', also called the '''CDC CFS Symptom Inventory''' is a self-report questionnaire designed by the [[Centers for Disease Control and Prevention|CDC]] about physical symptoms that a [[ME/CFS]] patient may have experienced during the past month. The CDC stated that there were several self-report questionnaires which measured fatigue and illness impact, such as the [[SF-36 | Medical Outcomes Survey Short-Form-36]] (MOS [[SF-36]]), [[Multidimensional Fatigue Inventory-20]] (MFI),and the [[Chalder fatigue scale | Chalder Fatigue Scale]], but few evaluated the case defining symptoms which accompany [[Chronic fatigue syndrome|CFS]]. In testing the validity of the CDC CFS Symptom Inventory, one hundred sixty-four subjects were enrolled during the CDC [[Wichita Clinical Study]] from December 2002 to July 2003. Three groups were chosen to fill out the questionnaire: one with CFS (diagnosed using the [[Fukuda criteria]]), one with other fatiguing illnesses and one non-fatigued control group.<ref>{{Cite web | url = http://www.cdc.gov/cfs/programs/wichita-data-access/index.html | title = Witchia data access {{!}} Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) {{!}} Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) {{!}} CDC | last = | first = | date = 2018-07-03 | website = [[Centers for Disease Control and Prevention]]|language=en-us|archive-url=|archive-date=|url-status= | access-date = 2018-10-15}}</ref> In 2005, the results were published in [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1183246/ ''Psychometric properties of the CDC Symptom Inventory for assessment of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome''] by Dieter Wagner, Rosane Nisenbaum, Christine Heim, James F Jones, [[Elizabeth Unger]], and [[William Reeves]]. They concluded that: "The Symptom Inventory appears to be a reliable and valid instrument to assess symptoms that accompany CFS."<ref name=":0" /> The inventory asks the patient to rate his/her experience in the past month with the following symptoms: [[sore throat]], tender [[lymph node]]s or [[swollen gland]]s in your neck or armpits, [[diarrhea]], unusual [[fatigue]] for at least one day after [[exertion]], [[Myalgia|muscle aches or pains]], [[Arthralgia|joint pain]], [[fever]], [[chill]]s, [[unrefreshing sleep]], [[Sleep dysfunction|sleeping problems]], [[headaches]]s, forgetfulness or [[memory problems]], [[Cognitive dysfunction|difficulty thinking or concentrating]], [[nausea]], stomach or [[abdominal pain]]s, sinus or nasal symptoms, [[Dyspnea|shortness of breath]], [[Photophobia|eye sensitivity to light]], [[depression]], and a blank line for any symptom not already listed.<ref name=":0">{{Cite journal | last = Wagner | first = Dieter | last2 = Nisenbaum | first2 = Rosane | last3 = Heim | first3 = Christine | last4 = Jones | first4 = James F | last5 = Unger | first5 = Elizabeth R | last6 = Reeves | first6 = William C | date = 2005-07-22 | title = Psychometric properties of the CDC Symptom Inventory for assessment of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome | url =https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1183246/ | journal = Population Health Metrics | volume = 3 | pages = 8|doi=10.1186/1478-7954-3-8|issn=1478-7954|pmc=1183246|pmid=16042777}}</ref> ==Mean scores for Symptom Inventory by subject classification== [[File:CDC Symptom Inventory Graph .png |center|alt=Chronic Fatigue Syndrome scores are higher than all other categories|CDC scores for Symptom Inventory for CFS, IFS, remission and never fatigued. ]]<ref name=":0" /> ==Learn more== *[https://www.cdc.gov/me-cfs/pdfs/symptom-inventory-questionnaire-508.pdf CDC 2005 Symptom Inventory for CFS Questionnaire] *[https://www.cdc.gov/me-cfs/pdfs/wichita-data-access/si-scoring-algorithm.pdf CDC 2005 Symptom Inventory for CFS Scoring] ==See also== *[[Wichita Clinical Study]] *[[SF-36 | Medical Outcomes Survey Short-Form-36]] *[[Chalder fatigue scale]] ==References== {{Reflist}} [[Category:Symptom scales]] [[Category:Tests]]
