*The PANSS is a 30-item scale used to measure symptoms of schizophrenia. Each item is rated by a clinician on a 7-point scale. A score of 1 indicates the absence of symptoms, and a score of 7 indicates extremely severe symptoms. The PANSS total score may range from 30 to 210, with higher scores reflecting greater overall symptom severity.1
