(1989) The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI): A new instrument for psychiatric research and practice. Psychiatry Research: 28(2), An effective instrument used to measure the quality and patterns of sleep in adults It differentiates poor from good sleep quality by measuring seven areas: Subjective sleep quality Sleep latency Sleep duration Habitual sleep efficiency Sleep disturbances Use of sleeping medications Daytime dysfunction over the last month Validated in: elderly, PTSD, primary insomnia, cancer, TBI, COPD, IPF, OSA, pregnancy, fibromyalgia The following questions relate to your usual sleep habits during the past month only. Your answers should indicate the most accurate reply for the majority of days and nights in the past month During the past month: 1. When have you usually gone to bed? 2. How long (in minutes) has it taken you to fall asleep each night? 3. What time have you usually gotten up in the morning? 4. A. How many hours of actual sleep did you get at night? B.

Very good 0 Fairly good 1 Fairly bad 2 Very bad 3 PSQI: Interpretation of scores The Global Score ranges from 0 to 21 Higher Global Scores = poorer sleep quality Cut-off score of > 5 distinguishes poor sleepers from good sleepers Scoring instructions are provided in the original publication 8

9 Eliminating other sleep disorders: preliminary questions Are you a very heavy snorer? Does your partner say that you sometimes stop breathing at night? (obstructive sleep apnoea syndrome (OSAS)) Do your legs often twitch and can t keep still in bed? Do you wake from sleep with jerky leg movements? (restless legs syndrome (RLS), periodic limb movements in sleep (PMLS)) Do you sometimes fall asleep in the daytime completely without warning? Do you have collapses or extreme muscle weakness triggered by emotion, for instance when you re laughing? (narcolepsy) Do you tend to sleep well but just at the wrong times ; and are these sleeping and waking times regular?
