STOP, THAT and One Hundred Other Sleep Scales

There are at least four reasons why a sleep clinician should be familiar with rating scales that evaluate different facets of sleep. First, the use of scales facilitates a quick and accurate assessment of a complex clinical problem.

Instead, most PNES are an automatic psychological and physiological response to an internal or external trigger perceived as threatening by the individual, whether consciously or not. Not least because the changes in the brain that underpin PNES cannot be visualized easily with clinical tests, there are many uncertainties and controversies surrounding the condition, and patients often provoke a mixture of emotions in healthcare professionals. While some patients have positive care experience...
