Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder commonly characterised by signs and symptoms of hyperactivity, inattentiveness, impulsivity or a combination of all.
There are three recognised types of ADHD in children:
An occasional lack of attention, being forgetful or fidgety and a little hyperactive at times can all be typical childhood traits and are not necessarily indicative of ADHD. However, if you are seeing a significant number of these signs and symptoms and they persist at school, at home and during play, then a private children’s ADHD assessment is recommended.
ADHD can be diagnosed in children from the age of 5 and the signs and symptoms will usually be noticeable before the age of 12.
Children’s ADHD assessments consist of a structured clinical assessment for ADHD using the latest Conners 4 diagnostic assessment tool. This well-recognised tool has three components (Teacher, Parent and Child) and is used to help your Consultant Psychiatrist to get a better objective understanding of how your child’s ADHD symptoms may have affected them throughout their life.
You will meet with one of our Specialist Child and Adolescent Psychiatrists to complete the assessment. The doctor will take a detailed assessment of your child’s presenting symptoms, how the symptoms have developed over time, past medical history, developmental history and family history.
Following this, the doctor will formulate a differential diagnosis, taking into consideration all of the above information. This will then form the basis of an individualised treatment plan, which is designed to ensure that your child receives the best possible management and care.
