The PSSD is a patient-reported instrument that assesses the severity of 5 symptoms (burning, itch, pain, skin tightness, stinging) and 6 signs (bleeding, cracking, dryness, redness, scaling, shedding or flaking) on a numerical scale ranging from 0 (absent) to 10 (worst imaginable). Psoriasis symptom and sign summary scores (0–100) were derived based on average scores for the individual symptoms and signs domains.
