Background: Gastric cancer is the second most common cancer in Korea. Fatigue is a common symptom among cancer survivors. The aim of this study was to identify factors associated with fatigue in gastric cancer survivors. Methods: Data were analyzed from 199 gastric cancer survivors who visited a cancer survivor outpatient clinic from July 2013 to June 2014. Patients were surveyed using a questionnaire containing a fatigue severity scale (FSS) and questions regarding associated symptoms. Participants were divided into fatigue (FSS) and non-fatigue groups based on FSS scores (≥4 and <4, respectively). Age, sex, weight, body mass index, cancer stage, pathology, surgery type, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, comorbid disease, family history of cancer, smoking, alcohol consumption, exercise, and laboratory results were investigated. Results: The fatigue and non-fatigue groups contained 42 and 157 survivors, respectively. Their mean age was 58 years, and the mean post-operative period was 6.58 years. Arthralgia (odds ratio [OR], 12.95; 95% confidence interval [CI], 3.21–52.34), dyspnea (OR, 10.54; 95% CI, 2.94–37.80), dyspepsia (OR, 8.26; 95% CI, 2.63–25.96), changed bowel habits (OR, 4.56; 95% CI, 1.09–19.11), anemia (OR, 3.18; 95% CI, 1.26–8.05), and regular exercise (OR, 0.31; 95% CI, 0.12–0.77) were significantly associated with fatigue in gastric cancer survivors, while weight, treatment, and depressive mood were not. Conclusion: Arthralgia, dyspnea, dyspepsia, bowel habit change, anemia, and regular exercise are associated with fatigue in gastric cancer survivors.
