Abstract
Poststroke fatigue (PSF) is a common complication affecting a wide range of stroke patients, yet it remains under-reported and underestimated. PSF's exact underlying cause has not yet been identified and it seems to be multifactorial, with several models developed to answer that question. Identifying the true nature of PSF and its risk factors would help improve the quality of life of stroke patients.
