Filter by:In response to the coronavirus disease 2019 (covid-19) outbreak, the home confinement of the population ordered by governments in many countries raise questions about its impact on individuals' physical and mental health in the short and longer term. In children, reduced physical activity, changes in lifestyle, disturbances in sleep patterns, lack of in-person contact with peers, poor or inadequate understanding of health risks may be risk factors of anxiety, stress, fatigue, sleep disorders. These problematic effects could be modulated by social factors (housing in urban or rural areas, availability of personal space at home, parenting stress, etc.).
The Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a frequent disorder in children and adolescents. The diagnosis is clinical with the input of several informants (child, family, teachers, …). ADHD is a risk factor for academic difficulties, school dropout, social isolation, injury, oppositional behaviour. In school-age children and adolescents having moderate to high or persistent impairment despite psycho-educational support and environmental modification, the first-line treatment is methylphenidate. Group or individual cognitive behavioural therapy for parents and/or children and adolescents is recommended for co-occurring disorders and persistent impairment. In France, the initiation of methylphenidate requires an annual hospital prescription by a paediatrician or psychiatrist, and a regular medical supervision (weight, heart rate, blood pressure, …). At least once a year, the indication of methyphenidate needs to be re-evaluated and confirmed at the hospital. In case of lack of efficiency and/or poor tolerance, therapeutic alternatives including non-psychostimulants should be considered. A randomized controlled trial evaluated the dose of methylphenidate received over a period of 13 months. It was observed that the "combined treatment" group (methylphenidate + psychosocial treatments) received a lower average dose of methylphenidate than the "methylphenidate alone" group. These results are difficult to extrapolate to the general population, due to the study protocol (regular monitoring of ADHD symptoms with the aim of total remission). For a global consideration of children's needs, it is important to better understand the interactions between these two therapeutic approaches. To participate in the study, parents will have to complete an online questionnaire. This questionnaire contains anamnestic data collection, questionnaires to assess ADHD symptoms and parenting practices.
This trial will evaluate the pharmacokinetics, safety, and tolerability of centanafadine in pediatric subjects with ADHD.
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), is a highly genetic and complex neurological disorder, where disruptive behavior, emotional imbalance, and lack of attention can interrupt with normal development of adolescents, self-awareness, and self-regulation in a way that has an impact on the family unit. Effective family intervention programs, that empower resilience and strength, to cope with the stressful situation from ADHD, are therefore needed. Nevertheless, there is a lack of knowledge regarding what type of interventions are the most effective for these families. As well as, little is known about the benefits of family-level intervention for families of adolescents with ADHD at outpatient care and what amount of combination in an intervention is appropriate. Psychiatric advanced practical nurse (APN) practitioners are in a key role to offer such an intervention. Therefore, the aim of this pilot study is to evaluate the feasibility of offering a family-level intervention, for parents of 13-17 years old adolescents with ADHD, at a Children and Adolescents' Psychiatric Outpatient Unit (BUGL). Also, to evaluate if the intervention, which consists of group educational sessions, family sessions, and access to evidence-based information's on ADHD, fitted the families. A nurse-led educational and support intervention will be offered for parents of adolescents with ADHD once a week over a 5-week time period. First, there will be offered three group support sessions, with information about the general impact of the ADHD disorder on the family's daily life. Second, two special therapeutic conversations and support interviews will be offered to each family, where each parent can discuss their daily situation specifically and its impact on the family as a whole. Third, caregivers will have access to about 140 pages of evidence-based material on a closed website (pan pale) regarding the ADHD disorder in adolescents and its impact on the family. The outcome of this process will help in determining the feasibility of subjecting the intervention to a more expensive and time-consuming randomized controlled trial (RCT) study.
ADHD360 will be an innovative integrated platform for early ADHD diagnosis and intervention against its symptoms. In the core of the platform design there will be a serious game along with a mobile application to monitor behavior and to evaluate the intervention.
To analyze heterogeneity in ADHD experts in last decade advised to look beyond the lists of existing symptoms towards phenotypic measures that can be represented dimensionally and have well-theorized relationships with neurobiological systems, (Sonuga-Barke & Halperin, 2010; Insel et al, 2010; Fair D, Bathula D, Nikolas M, Nigg JT, 2012; Georgiades S, Szatmari P, Boyle M, 2013; Sanislow CA, Pine DS, Quinn KJ, et al, 2013). This is the nucleus of RDoC aims because children and adolescents with ADHD can be characterized in terms of several features that are best represented as dimensions and have well-theorized relationships to biological systems (Cuthbert & Insel, 2013).
This study is designed to test if Baduanjin training can reduce the hyperactive-impulsive symptoms of children with Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) compared to routine excise. Investigators will also evaluate if the Baduanjin training will positively affect Chinese Traditional Medicine (TCM) symptoms compared to controls and if these impacts are related to the change of the executive function.
This will be a prospective double-blinded randomized controlled trial comparing two pre-treatment protocols for patients undergoing intradetrussor botox injections to determine if a buffered lidocaine solution offers superior pain control.
This is a 3-week open label, one group study to determine the agreement between the pharmacological treatment recommended by TDApp1 and the interventions recommended by relevant clinical practice guidelines.
ADHD is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by persistent symptoms of inattention and/or hyperactivity and impulsivity that are present before age 18. These symptoms must be evident across ADHD treatment is currently based on a multimodal approach with the combination of psychotherapy and pharmacotherapy, but no reliable markers of treatment response have been identified yet and 20-35% of subjects in clinical trials may have an inadequate response to the treatment The gut microbiome refers to the microbial ecosystem found in the gastrointestinal system of the human species Probiotics are a type of beneficial bacteria that improve health and facilitate intestinal microbial balance Increasing evidence suggests that the gut microbiota plays a key role in the gut-brain communication axis by influencing metabolism, inflammation, the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, and neurotransmission multiple domains and cause Impairment in functioning in order to meet the diagnostic criteria for ADHD
