(Positive = a positive response to at least one of the three following questions)

I. Ocular symptoms: Have you had daily, persistent, troublesome dry eyes for more than 3 months?Do you have a recurrent sensation of sand or gravel in the eyes?Do you use tear substitutes more than three times a day?

II. Oral symptoms: Have you had a daily feeling of dry mouth for more than 3 months?Have you had recurrently or persistently swollen salivary gland as an adult? Do you frequently drink liquids to aid in swallowing dry food?

Objective

Page 24: Sjögren's Syndrome Clinical, Pathogenetic & Aspects

Rules for classification:

Definitive primary SS

presence of any four of the six items

in patients without any potentially associated disease

Secondary SS

item‑1 or item‑2 plus any two from items 3, 4, 5

in patients with a potentially associated disease

(another connective tissue disease)
