The PC-PTSD-5 is a 5-item self-report screening tool for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) validated for use in primary care settings, consistent with DSM-5 criteria. It was developed by Prins et al. and is endorsed by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) and Department of Defense (DoD). Each item asks about PTSD symptoms in the past month, and a positive screen (≥3) indicates probable PTSD requiring further diagnostic assessment.
In the past month, have you had nightmares about the event(s) or thought about the event(s) when you did not want to?
In the past month, have you tried hard not to think about the event(s) or gone out of your way to avoid situations that remind you of the event(s)?
In the past month, have you been constantly on guard, watchful, or easily startled?
In the past month, have you felt numb or detached from others, activities, or your surroundings?
In the past month, have you felt guilty or unable to stop blaming yourself or others for the event(s) or any problems the event(s) may have caused?
