Disorder.\u00a0 To be diagnosed a child must exhibit specific symptoms of hyperactivity or inactivity in two or more settings for more than six months.\u00a0 There is no single test to diagnose ADHD but doctors gather information from school, parents, and caregivers to help with the diagnosis.<br><br>\n<h3>What are some of the symptoms?<\/h3>\nThese children are in constant motion and seem to always be squirming and fidgeting.\u00a0 They do not seem to listen and they have difficulty playing quietly.\u00a0 They often have difficulty in school because they talk excessively, interrupt others, do not finish tasks, and are easily distracted.\n\nThere are some other causes of ADHD-like behavior such as, a sudden life change (divorce, move, death in the family); anxiety; depression; sleep problems or undetected seizures.<br><br>\n<h3>How is ADHD diagnosed?<\/h3>\nThe American Academy of Pediatrics has developed guidelines for diagnosing ADHD in children ages 6-12.\u00a0 One of these resources is called the Vanderbilt forms, which we use regularly in this practice.\u00a0 Diagnosing ADHD in children under 5 is very difficult because children this age often exhibit some of these symptoms normally.\n\nThe process of diagnosing ADHD contains multiple steps and involves getting information from multiple resources.\u00a0 We use the Vanderbilt forms to gather information from the parents and teachers.\u00a0 We also may request a child study performed either by the school system or JMU for further evaluation.\n\nDuring the first ADHD appointment your child may have blood drawn to evaluate the lead level and hemoglobin level.\u00a0 His\/her height, weight, and blood pressure will be measured.\u00a0 A complete history will be taken by the physician and a complete physical exam will be performed.\u00a0 All of this is done to make sure there is not an underlying medical condition causing the symptoms.<br><br>\n<h3>What are the different types of ADHD?<\/h3>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n \t<li><strong>Combined Type (Inattentive\/Hyperactive\/Impulsive).<\/strong>\u00a0Children with this type of ADHD show all three symptoms. This is the most common form of ADHD.<\/li>\n \t<li><strong>Hyperactive\/Impulsive Type.<\/strong>\u00a0Children show both hyperactive and impulsive behavior, but are able to pay attention.<\/li>\n \t<li><strong>Inattentive Type.<\/strong>\u00a0Formerly known as attention deficit disorder (ADD), these children are not overly active. They do not disrupt the classroom or other activities, so their symptoms might not be noticed.\u00a0 They space out and often have no idea what is going on around them.<\/li>\n<br><br>\n<h3>How is ADHD treated?<\/h3>\nEducation is the cornerstone of treatment for ADHD.\u00a0 This includes educating the family, child, and caregivers about ADHD.\u00a0 Other aspects may include special education services, psychological intervention, behavior modification therapy, and medications.\u00a0 Multiple studies show the best treatment includes medication and behavioral therapy.\n\nThere are two main types of medication for ADHD.\u00a0 The first are stimulants, which include Ritalin, Concerta, and Adderall.\u00a0 The second are nonstimulants, which includes Strattera.\u00a0 It will take time for your physician to find the right medication, dosage, and schedule for your unique child.\u00a0 These medications can have side effects.\u00a0 Please discuss your concerns with your child\u2019s physician regarding any of the medications.\n\nBehavioral treatment helps the child with ADHD learn to adapt to their environment and promotes more successful social interactions.\u00a0 Some of the aspects of this treatment include creating structure, following a routine, and explaining expectations to the child.\n\nOther things may also be helpful for children and parents such as support groups, social skills training for the child, or parenting skills training.<br><br>\n<h3>ADHD PARENTING RESOURCES<\/h3>\n<h3><em>Books:<\/em><\/h3>\n<em>Taking Charge of ADHD: A Practical Guide for Teachers and Parents;\u00a0<\/em>Russell A.
