ANECDOTE

Athlete Sleep Screening

  • Prioritize identifying athletes with clinically significant sleep disturbances for targeted intervention.
  • Utilize the Athlete Sleep Screening Questionnaire (ASSQ) for accurate assessment, as traditional tools like the PSQI overestimate issues in healthy populations.
  • Focus on sleep education for the majority (80-90%) of athletes who likely only require general guidance on sleep and recovery.
  • Offer specialized support and treatment to the 10-13% with identified disorders through resources like online assessments, consultations, and sleep studies.
