C4- Epworth Sleepiness Scale

Form Approved

OMB No. 0920-1278

Exp. Date 12/30/2020

Epworth Sleepiness Scale (Johns 1993)

© 1990-1997 M.W. Johns; used under license.

In your current, usual way of life, how likely are you to nod off or fall asleep in the following situations, in contrast to feeling just tired?

Even if you haven't done some of these things recently, try to work out how they would affect you. It is important that you answer each question as best you can.

Using the scale, choose the most appropriate number for each situation.

Situation	Would never nod off 0	Slight chance of nodding off 1	Moderate chance of nodding off 2	High chance of nodding off 3
Sitting and reading
Watching TV
Sitting, inactive, in a public place (e.g., in a meeting, theater, or dinner event)
As a passenger in a car for an hour or more without stopping for a break
Lying down to rest when circumstances permit
Sitting and talking to someone
Sitting quietly after a meal without alcohol
In a car, while stopped for a few minutes in traffic or at a light

Add your responses to each item to get your score. A score of 10 or greater raises concern: you may need to get more sleep, improve your sleep practices, or seek medical attention to determine why you are sleepy.

If your score is 13 or higher, we recommend that you see your healthcare provider for an evaluation and possibly a referral to a sleep disorder specialist for an evaluation and treatment to relieve excessive worktime sleepiness.
