The Panic Disorder Severity Scale is a type of ASSESSMENT TOOL.
The Panic Disorder Severity Scale is designed to be a simple way of measuring the severity of Panic Disorder.
For PATIENTS with a panic disorder, the Panic Disorder Severity Scale can be calculated and repeated over time to monitor change.
Where PATIENTS are not agoraphobic, score ranges correspond with:
0 - 1 | Normal |
2 - 5 | Borderline |
6 - 9 | Slightly ill |
10 - 13 | Moderately ill |
14+ | Markedly ill |
For agoraphobic PATIENTS, score ranges correspond with:
0 - 2 | Normal |
3 - 7 | Borderline |
8 - 10 | Slightly ill |
11 - 15 | Moderately ill |
16+ | Markedly ill |
The recommended cut off score for the Panic Disorder Severity Scale is 8, so a PERSON scoring 8 or above will be considered to be at "caseness".
