Whit this is based on
The fields are informed by Carney an colleagues’ Consensus Sleep Diary (2012, Sleep), wi original wording an additions for split sleep. This isna the official form or a validated assessment. Estimated sleep is the spell frae estimated onset tae final wakin, takin awa time awake atween them. Time in bed includes the hale bed-to-out-of-bed spell. Yer rested rating is yer ain impression, no a sleep score.
Speak tae a doctor if sleep trouble has lasted for months or is makin daily life hard tae manage. The NHS also advises seekin help when changin sleep habits hasna helped. NHS: Insomnia — when tae see a doctor.
A few useful answers
How dae I record sleep efter midnight or in twa pairts?
Choose a nicht label, then enter the actual date an time for ilk event. A 01:00 bedtime needs the follaein day's date. Add a second sleep block for split sleep. Blocks an naps maunna owerlap, an the entry maun fit within 48 hours o the nicht label. Times uise this device's local time zone; repeated times at an autumn clock change micht need a note.
Can I tak this tae an appointment?
Aye. Export a CSV tae shaw a professional, or print the diary. It hauds yer entries, no a diagnosis, a sleep-efficiency grade or a recommendation. JSON backups include yer unfinished draft an aa. CSV imports restore completed entries alane.
