August 2025

Division of Rheumatology, Department of Medicine, Tufts Medical Center, 800 Washington Street, Boston, MA, 02111, United States, 1 617-636-5990.

Background: Fatigue is a highly prevalent and debilitating symptom of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), significantly affecting the quality of life and employment of those living with the disease. Nonpharmacologic approaches, such as physical activity interventions, have shown promise in reducing fatigue but are often resource-intensive and lack grounding in behavior change theory. Mobile health (mHealth) technology offers a scalable approach to delivering behavioral interventions.
