One of the most commonly used and validated sleep questionnaires for screening potential patients with sleep apnea is the Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS). The ESS is a self-report questionnaire that assesses daytime sleepiness and the likelihood of dozing off in various situations. It consists of eight questions that ask individuals to rate their likelihood of falling asleep on a scale of zero to three in different scenarios.
