Abstract
Depression screening is not part of routine clinical practice in US sleep clinics. Our study aimed to report the prevalence of depression among individuals referred to US sleep clinics. According to our findings, approximately 21% of patients had depression, with about 4% reporting severe symptoms, 9% had frequent death and/or self-harming thoughts, and 61% were taking antidepressants. Our results highlighted a considerable risk of prevalent depression in sleep clinics and supported the limited existing data on this topic. Our study advocates for the need for routine depression screening in sleep services to reduce the detrimental consequences of a delayed depression diagnosis and the risk of a worse prognosis for both depression and sleep–wake disorders.

We take sleep physiology, subjects' sociodemographic and clinical characteristics, and we use AI to connect them and extract biomarkers that can map a subjects’ mental health status.
