Physiotherapy is one of the areas that can act in the process of diagnosis and monitoring of Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). In this sense, the objective was to outline the studies and development of technologies on the subject and the physiotherapeutic approaches already registered in databases. The search was conducted from January to July 2022, the descriptors used were "ADHD AND Physiotherapy" being performed on the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) patent database and articles and abstracts: Scopus Web of Science, PubMed, The Lens and ScienceDirect. Using the Scopus Web of Science, PubMed, The Lens and ScienceDirect article bases and the descriptors “ADHD AND Physiotherapy”. It is concluded that the role of physiotherapy in the development and monitoring of people with ADHD, from diagnosis, with exercises and activities that help in motor, neurological and cognitive progression, becomes relevant for promoting health and quality of life for these patients.
O Transtorno de Déficit de Atenção/Hiperatividade (TDAH) inicia-se na infância e apresenta como sintomas a falta de atenção, hiperatividade e dificuldade de autocontrole. Objetivou-se identificar os principais estudos e aplicações tecnológicas sobre TDAH e eletroencefalograma (EEG) em bases de dados e nas patentes. A pesquisa ocorreu de setembro a dezembro de 2021, utilizando para o levantamento de artigos científicos as bases da Web of Science e Pubmed e para as patentes: United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), European Patent Office (EPO), World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) e o Instituto Nacional de Propriedade Industrial (INPI) do Brasil. Os resultados nas bases de dados mostraram os USA liderando o ranking e a busca por patentes evidenciou um crescimento no número de depósitos. Constatou-se a necessidade de maiores investimentos em tecnologia brasileira, pois os resultados evidenciaram poucos registros na base de dados INPI sendo relevante maior atenção no desenvolvimento tecnológico do país.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
