Download or read book Disruptive Mood written by Argyris Stringaris and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2015-03-05 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A practical guide to understanding and treating children and adolescents prone to extreme levels of angry outbursts, Disruptive Mood: Irritability in Children and Adolescents is based on the very latest research and theory. Providing both a clinical and scientific perspective on irritability in children, this book is a timely look at recent developments in the field. Abnormal states of anger are a common reason for referral to child health services, and cause concern in clinics, schools, and families. Misdiagnosis and treatment can stem from a lack of understanding of the mechanisms involved in high levels of anger in children, and Disruptive Mood: Irritability in Children and Adolescents provides clear guidance on the development of abnormal states of anger, their consequences for later development, and how to assess and make differential diagnoses between them. A useful resource for clinical practice, this book is concise and accessible, and offers tools for evaluating treatments. Disruptive Mood: Irritability in Children and Adolescents is designed for practitioners involved in child and adolescent mental health and education and researchers who need an introduction to this complex field.

Book Future Research Needs for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder  Effectiveness of Treatment in At risk Preschoolers  Long term Effectiveness in All Ages  and Variability in Prevalence  Diagnosis  and Treatment

Download or read book Future Research Needs for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder Effectiveness of Treatment in At risk Preschoolers Long term Effectiveness in All Ages and Variability in Prevalence Diagnosis and Treatment written by U. S. Department of Health and Human Services and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2013-04-04 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Future Research Needs (FRN) report is based on a draft Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) comparative effectiveness review, “Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder: Effectiveness of Treatment in At-risk Preschoolers; Long-Term Effectiveness in All Ages; and Variability in Prevalence, Diagnosis, and Treatment.” The Key Questions (KQs) were: KQ 1: Among children less than 6 years of age with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder or Disruptive Behavior Disorder, what are the effectiveness and adverse event outcomes following treatment? KQ 2: Among people ages 6 years or older with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, what are the effectiveness and adverse event outcomes following 12 months or more of any combination of followup or treatment, including, but not limited to, 12 months or more of continuous treatment? KQ 3: How do (a) underlying prevalence of ADHD, and (b) rates of diagnosis (clinical identification) and treatment for ADHD vary by geography, time period, provider type, and sociodemographic characteristics? Findings in the draft review for KQ 1 supported the use of parent behavior training in preschoolers both for oppositional behaviors and for ADHD symptoms, with no adverse events reported. For preschoolers, psychostimulant medications are also generally safe and efficacious for improving behavior and can provide benefits in addition to parent training. However, adverse events, especially irritability and moodiness, can lead to discontinuation, and use for several months to a year slightly affects growth rate. For KQ 2, long-term effectiveness and safety studies of several psychostimulants in children over the age of 6 years and adolescents found they are efficacious for control of inattention and overactivity for extended periods of time. Few serious adverse events were noted. Publications from the Multimodal Treatment Study of Children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (MTA) study provide the best data for long-term outcomes. By 3 years, no single intervention group showed superior benefit, which is likely because of individuals obtaining a complex range of interventions in the community. The findings for KQ 3 included results from a systematic review and meta-regression that estimated the prevalence of ADHD among those ages 18 or younger at 5.29 percent, with more boys than girls identified and the highest rates of disorder occurring in 5- to 10-year-olds. Primary sources of variability were identified as methodological rather than geographic. Fewer studies are available that document prevalence in adult, adolescent, or preschool age groups. In this project, we worked with a group of stakeholders to refine 29 identified research gaps and transform them into eight highest-priority research needs in the field of ADHD. These highest-level needs included a broad range of issues cutting across age range (above and below 6 years of age), key clinical issues, and epidemiological and measurement concerns. Within this group of eight, clear themes emerged: the need for improved measurement tools, more generalizable study populations and settings, longer follow-up periods, more understanding of patient-level predictors of response, and more comparative evaluation of psychopharmacologic, psychosocial, and combination interventions across age ranges. PICOTS construction aided our consideration of study design issues and our sample power analyses demonstrated the clear pragmatic barriers that many of the potential designs will present. Advanced secondary data analysis methods may allow some of these complex questions to be addressed in a more cost effective manner but will not be able to fully replace the need for new large, long-term trials to evaluate these complex research needs in ADHD.

Book Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder

Download or read book Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder written by Lily Hechtman and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-09-01 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book provides a comprehensive summary of the best known and most highly respected well-controlled long-term prospective follow-up studies in ADHD. These studies followed children with ADHD and matched controls into young adulthood (mean age 20-25 years) and middle-age (mean age 41 years). They explore a wide variety of outcome areas, e.g. education, occupation, emotional and psychiatric functioning, substance use and abuse, sexual behavior, as well as legal problems. One chapter focuses particularly on the outcome of girls with ADHD. Outcome areas explored are thus comprehensive and clinically very relevant. The book also explores the possible predictors of adult outcome. A whole chapter is devoted to treatment (medication and psychosocial) as a predictor of outcome. In addition to treatment, predictors explored include characteristics of the child (e.g., IQ, severity of initial ADHD symptoms, initial comorbidity characteristics of the family, e.g., socioeconomic status, single parenthood, parental pathology, and family functioning. In a summary chapter, the impact and importance of these various predictors in different outcome areas, e.g. education, occupation, emotional/social functioning, antisocial behavior, substance use and abuse and risky sexual and driving behaviors are explored. In summary, the book provides a comprehensive view of the prognosis, e.g., long-term outcome of ADHD and key factors which can influence this outcome. Professionals and the general public will thus get a clear view of what can happen to children with ADHD as they proceed through adolescence and adulthood and address important prognostic and predictive factors in their treatment approaches to ensure better long-term outcome in patients with ADHD.
