Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • PHQ-9 Depression Symptoms

    The PHQ-9 (Patient Health Questionnaire - 9) is commonly used to screen for depression and to monitor progression of depressive symptoms over time. The scores represent the following depression severity: 0-4: minimal depression, 5-9: mild depression, 10-14: moderate depression, 15-19: moderately severe, 20-27: severe. A score of 10 is often recommended as the cut-off score for diagnosing an episode of depression that may require treatment.
