Ward has all 135 clinical calculators in 18 specialties, word for word the ones Suture uses. One free account for Ward, Suture, Osler and Prognia.
Covers past month. 20 items, 0–4 each (not at all to extremely).
Threshold ≥ 33. Optimal cut for PTSD diagnosis (DSM-5). Some studies use 31–38 depending on population.
4-cluster structure. Intrusion (Q1–5), Avoidance (Q6–7), Negative cognition/mood (Q8–14), Arousal/reactivity (Q15–20).
A reference for clinicians and students, not medical advice. A score supports a decision; it does not make one. Check every result against the patient in front of you and your local protocol.
