Daytime sleepiness, snoring, and obstructive sleep apnea. The Epworth Sleepiness Scale.

Chest, 1993
The Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) is a simple questionnaire measuring the general level of daytime sleepiness, called here the average sleep propensity. This is a measure of the probability of falling asleep in a variety of situations. The conceptual basis of the ESS involves a four-process model of sleep and wakefulness.

Can physiological sleepiness underlie consciously perceived sleepiness assessed with the Epworth sleepiness scale?

The European Physical Journal Special Topics, 2023
Abstract Methods of evaluation of substates of sleep and sleepiness differ in, at least, two respects. Although sleepiness has not been separated from other wake and sleep substates using yes-or-no criteria for sleep scoring, it would be consciously perceived and, therefore, assessed with a questionary. However, such subjective method was challenged by

Measurement properties of the Epworth sleepiness scale

Sleep Medicine, 2003
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has been estimated to affect 2–4% of middle aged adults [1]. Excessive daytime sleepiness is an important criterion both for establishing the severity of OSA and for determining the response to specific treatment such as nasal continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) [2].

A Psychometric Analysis of the Epworth Sleepiness Scale

Journal of Nursing Measurement, 2007
Psychometric performance of the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) has not been evaluated in groups of workers. This study evaluated its use in a sample of 843 long-haul truckers. Interitem correlations and Cronbach’s alpha were conducted. Correlation of the ESS with the sleep problems subscale of the Trucker Strain Monitor (TSM) was performed ...

Limits of the Epworth Sleepiness Scale in older adults

Sleep and Breathing, 2012
Excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) in older adults is associated with obstructive sleep apnea, falls, reduced quality of life, and mortality. The Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) is widely used to assess sleepiness. However, EDS assessment with the ESS may not be accurate in older adults.
