“…Parent training programs may be administered individually or in groups and have shown positive effects on parenting skills, ADHD behavior, and comorbid conduct problems. 231 232 233 Family therapy for ADHD focuses on the ADHD family, with the ADHD patient being a part of the family system with dysfunctional interactional patterns. 234 School-based interventions may target (1) the conditions in the classroom, for example, by minimizing distractions; (2) the instruction of the teacher, for example, by suggesting more appropriate teaching methods or by promoting peer tutoring; or (3) the student, for example, by improving self-management and social skills, or by helping to cope with stigma.…”

ADHD: Current Concepts and Treatments in Children and Adolescents

et al. 2020

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is among the most frequent disorders within child and adolescent psychiatry, with a prevalence of over 5%. Nosological systems, such as the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 5th edition (DSM-5) and the International Classification of Diseases, editions 10 and 11 (ICD-10/11) continue to define ADHD according to behavioral criteria, based on observation and on informant reports. Despite an overwhelming body of research on ADHD over the last 10 to 20 years, valid neurobiological markers or other objective criteria that may lead to unequivocal diagnostic classification are still lacking. On the contrary, the concept of ADHD seems to have become broader and more heterogeneous. Thus, the diagnosis and treatment of ADHD are still challenging for clinicians, necessitating increased reliance on their expertise and experience. The first part of this review presents an overview of the current definitions of the disorder (DSM-5, ICD-10/11). Furthermore, it discusses more controversial aspects of the construct of ADHD, including the dimensional versus categorical approach, alternative ADHD constructs, and aspects pertaining to epidemiology and prevalence. The second part focuses on comorbidities, on the difficulty of distinguishing between “primary” and “secondary” ADHD for purposes of differential diagnosis, and on clinical diagnostic procedures. In the third and most prominent part, an overview of current neurobiological concepts of ADHD is given, including neuropsychological and neurophysiological researches and summaries of current neuroimaging and genetic studies. Finally, treatment options are reviewed, including a discussion of multimodal, pharmacological, and nonpharmacological interventions and their evidence base.

“…With respect to behavioral therapy, parent behavior management training and cognitive behavioral skills training for adolescent and adults with ADHD are effective treatments, in particular when provided in conjunction with medication, and optimal outcomes may result when behavioral therapy is initiated prior to pharmacological treatment [ 12 ]. However, effects of behavioral therapy are often not maintained outside the treatment period, treatment can be difficult to access, and a recent meta-analysis raised questions about its efficacy for improving ADHD symptoms [ 13 , 14 ]. Critically, adherence and compliance to both pharmacological and behavioral treatment regimens is often quite poor [ 15 ].…”

ObjectivePharmacological and behavioral therapies have limited impact on the distinct neurocognitive impairments associated with ADHD, and existing cognitive training programs have shown limited efficacy. This proof-of-concept study assessed treatment acceptability and explored outcomes for a novel digital treatment targeting cognitive processes implicated in ADHD.MethodParticipants included 40 children with ADHD and 40 children without ADHD. Following psychiatric screening, ADHD ratings, and baseline neuropsychological measures, participants completed 28-days of at-home treatment. Neuropsychological assessment was repeated at end-of-study along with treatment satisfaction measures.ResultsEighty-four percent of treatment sessions were completed and ratings showed strong intervention appeal. Significant improvements were observed on a computerized attention task for the ADHD group and a highly impaired ADHD High Severity subgroup. There was no change for the non-ADHD group. Spatial working memory also improved for the ADHD group and the ADHD High Severity subgroup.ConclusionFindings provide preliminary support that this treatment may improve attention, working memory, and inhibition in children with ADHD. Future research requires larger-scale randomized controlled trials that also evaluate treatment impact on functional impairments.Trial registrationClinicalTrials.gov NCT01943539

Tais achados apoiam as diretrizes da prática clínica e sugerem que intervenções parentais podem ser eficazes (Coates et al, 2015;Daley & O'Brien, 2013;Mulqueen et al, 2015;Stattin et al, 2015 Porto Alegre, RS: Artmed.…”

O Transtorno de Déficit de Atenção e Hiperatividade (TDAH) é um diagnóstico frequente em crianças em idade escolar e exige atenção para as consequências no desenvolvimento infantil. Existem diversas linhas de tratamento para o transtorno, especialmente a medicamentosa e a psicossocial. Entretanto, evidências atuais sugerem que a presença de TDAH em crianças pode estar associada a disfuncionalidades na família, relações entre pais e filhos, psicopatologia parental e diminuição da autoeficácia parental. Este artigo de revisão teórica investigou intervenções relacionadas à inclusão de pais como parte do tratamento da criança com TDAH. A literatura analisada relacionou-se a opção e adesão dos pais ao tratamento; estudos que investigaram a eficácia para intervenções com pais como alternativa de tratamento do TDAH nos filhos; e sobre barreiras e acessos às intervenções que os incluem como parte do tratamento da criança com TDAH. Existem significativas evidências de que a inclusão dos pais no tratamento da criança com TDAH traz benefícios para pais e crianças. Pais adquirem habilidades em relação ao conhecimento e manejo do transtorno e aprendem a auxiliar a criança em relação a diferentes aspectos diminuindo sintomas, favorecendo o desenvolvimento infantil e melhorando relações entre pais e filhos.
