Consensus Sleep Diary/Evidence
Method evidence record

Consensus Sleep Diary

The Consensus Sleep Diary is a standardized daily self-report instrument for prospective monitoring of sleep and wakefulness patterns. Developed by Carney and colleagues in 2012 through an international consensus process involving sleep medicine researchers and clinicians, it represents a unified approach to sleep tracking across clinical and research settings. The Consensus Sleep Diary records time in bed, sleep onset time, number and duration of nighttime awakenings, sleep quality, and other sleep-relevant variables, providing detailed information about sleep patterns that polysomnography cannot capture (daytime napping, sleep-wake schedule, weekly variation).
