Change From Baseline to the 12-week Treatment Period in Hospital Anxiety Score
The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) was used to evaluate anxiety and depression simultaneously. The HADS was developed as a self-administered scale that has been designed to assess the presence and severity of both anxiety and depression. It consists of 14 items that are scored on a 4-point severity scale ranging from 0 to 3. A score per dimension was calculated with each score ranging from 0 to 21 and higher scores indicating higher depression / anxiety. Negative values in Change from Baseline indicate a decrease of HADS from Baseline to Treatment Period.
