Generalised Anxiety Disorder Level (GAD-7)

Anxiety is a feeling of unease that can be mild or severe and can have a significant impact on how a person navigates their daily life. The GAD-7 questionnaire screens for and measures the severity of generalised anxiety disorder (GAD).

How it works​

The GAD-7 questionnaire is a quick and effective anxiety assessment tool for care teams. Patients respond to questions that ask how they have been feeling over the last 2 weeks, such as “How often have you had trouble relaxing?”. They answer from a set of multiple choice options that measure the scale of their anxiety:

  • Not at all
  • Several days
  • More than half the days
  • Nearly every day

To start, patients select the GAD-7 module and click Add. When they have answered all the questions, they will be assigned a score that is shared with their care team. From within the module, patients can view their progress in a graph and also access all their previous results. Daily, weekly, or monthly reminders can be set to help stay on track.
