Depression symptoms were stratified according to PHQ-9 score as minimal (0–4), mild (5–9), or moderate-to-severe (10–27). Mean age of patients was 57±11years; 65% were men; 50% were white and 47% black; ejection fraction was 30±15%. Over 24±12months (total: 625person-...
Nearly 3/4 of respondents (73.76%) had the PHQ-9 score value of ≤4, and slightly more than 1/4 of the respondents had the PHQ-9 score value of ≥5. The largest number of respondents (51.80%) over the week had moderate physical activity, with statistically significant difference (χ2...
PHQ9 Depression Screen in the past two weeks: Little Interest or Pleasure? Feeling down, depressed or hopeless? PHQ2 Score: <3 PHQ2 Score: 3+ Trouble Sleeping? Feeling tired or having little energy? Poor appetite or overeating? Feeling bad about oneself?
The test results are divided into six levels, with a numerical score from 0 to 100. These scores are based on established scales like the PHQ-9, where higher scores may indicate more severe symptoms (Wittkampf et al., 2009). Can my depression test results change over time?
Although the threshold for staff response at Duke was set at greater than or equal to 10 from the start of the implementation process, at UNC the social work staff was initially dispatched to respond to every PHQ-9 score greater than or equal to 5 (the threshold for mild depressive symptoms...
9 If a single screening cutpoint were to be chosen, we currently recommend a PHQ-9 score of 10 or greater, which has a sensitivity for major depression of 88%, a specificity of 88%, and a positive likelihood ratio of 7.1. The latter means that primary care patients with major depression...

Results: The Persian PHQ-9 demonstrated acceptable internal consistency, with Cronbach's alpha coefficient of 0.80. The optimal cut-off score of ≥7 showed a sensitivity of 76, specificity of 78, and the area under curve of 0.82. Conclusion: The Persian PHQ-9 has acceptable psychometric ...
Here, the authors assess and compare the diagnostic accuracy of 2 established screening instruments: the depression modules of the 9-item Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS-D), in a representative sample of patients with cancer. METHODS: This...
The PHQ-9 has also been translated into Thai (Thai PHQ-9) and validated in primary care patients [15]. The cut-off score of the Thai PHQ-9 for major depression in primary care patients is 9, which differs from the original version of the PHQ-9 [16]. As to PSD, Williams et al....
