Welcome to the Scienta Health Q-Gap™ Assessment.

The Q-Gap Assessment is designed to highlight opportunities for you to maximize your health.

"Q" represents QUALITY of LIFE. We believe you can only be truly healthy if you are symptom-free and have a ‘Q-Gap’ score of zero.

If this is your first experience with the Q-Gap, we hope you gain valuable insights into your health. If you returning to complete the questionnaire again, please know that your responses have given us a clearer understanding of the health trends among Canadians – thank you for your continuing support.

About the Q-Gap Assessment

It is intended to raise your awareness of symptoms that affect your well-being and your ability to live your life to the fullest.
Multiple-choice questions probe for presence, frequency and intensity of approximately 150 symptoms associated with disease and emotional stress, all of which impair energy, stamina and concentration – issues that affect your day-to-day life.
Evidence shows that with timely risk identification and the right health strategies (including nutrition, lifestyle and preventive medications where necessary) individuals can expect to live longer, more enjoyable and functional lives.

For You

Immediate feedback profiling your symptom patterns and symptom score. The ‘gap’ between your actual score and the ideal score of ZERO represents an opportunity to improve your health through effective personal health management strategies and practices.

Confidentiality

Your personal responses to the test, and those of all participants, will be kept totally confidential. The database will be stored securely by Scienta Health in accordance with applicable privacy laws. In the event that certain demographic information (such as age, gender, office) might permit identification, Scienta will not report the information at this level of detail.

Getting started

The test should take you approximately 15 minutes
Do not dwell on any question – your first response is usually the most indicative
You must complete the test, print and download your results in one sitting – for security and other reasons, your responses are not saved and should be downloaded (in PDF form) as soon as you complete the test.~ If you wish to keep the graphic reports, please print each
Do not re-do the test if you don’t like your score. Your result will be less reliable and will distort the overall profile

The Q-Gap survey is not a disease risk assessment tool. The information on this site is provided as information only and is not to be used or relied on for any diagnostic or treatment purposes. The information does not create any patient-physician relationship and should not be used as a substitute for professional diagnosis and treatment. It is intended to provide you with helpful prompts to initiate dialogue with family doctors or healthcare providers.

Scienta will develop multi-dimensional profiling of aggregated responses. Your organization will then have an important set of reference points for designing more targeted and effective health programs and benefits.

Confidentiadlity:


Your overall score plotted against the reference population	Your score by body system Age & gender-adjusted

Your score is profiled against our reference population of 30,000 Q Gap respondents from all walks of life.

Green zone – virtually symptom-free: 5% of reference population with lowest symptom load (lowest 5th percentile)
Yellow zone – sub-optimal health (6th to 50th percentile)
Red zone – impaired health: above the average symptom ‘load’ in the reference population (51st to 100th percentile).

Falling into the yellow or red zone does not necessarily mean you are gravely ill. It suggests you might need to address a number of frequently severe symptoms, which might indicate onset of disease. It doesn’t take many symptoms to get you into these zones. Speak to your doctor about what symptoms drove your score into the yellow or red zones.
