Research abstract<\/h3>\n

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome\/Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (CFS\/ME) is a physical and cognitive disabling illness, characterised by severe fatigue and a range of physiological symptoms that primarily affects women.<\/p>\n

The immense variation in clinical presentation suggests differences in severity based on symptomology, physical and cognitive functional capacities.<\/p>\n

In this review paper, we examined a number of severity scales used in assessing severity of patients with CFS\/ME and the clinical aspects of CFS\/ME severity subgroups. The use of severity scales may be important in CFS\/ME as it permits the establishment of subgroups which may improve accuracy in both clinical and research settings.<\/p>\n
