Brief Summary:
This study will determine the effectiveness of educating pediatricians about attention deficit hyperactivity disorder treatment guidelines in improving child behavior and pediatricians adherence to medication guidelines
Detailed Description:
The most effective treatment for improving the core symptoms of inattention impulsivity and hyperactivity in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder ADHD involves the use of stimulant medications Most children with ADHD are treated by pediatricians but the treatment provided is often less than optimal This study is designed to see if training for pediatricians in following guidelines for management of first-line medicines for ADHD leads to improvement in child behavior and whether the physicians can adhere to the guidelines
Over 100 studies have shown that stimulant medications are effective for improving the core symptoms of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder ADHD Approximately 70 of children who receive ADHD medications are treated by their primary care pediatrician but studies show that management is not always optimal The present study is designed to see if child behavior can be improved by training pediatricians in the use of guidelines for treating ADHD and whether the physicians can adhere to the guidelines Twenty-four pediatric practices were randomized to a treatment as usual or specialized care receiving training in guidelines and computer assisted monitoring of patient progress and medication titration Children are assessed with parent and teacher reports at baseline 4- 9- and 12-months post initiation of treatment and classroom observations of behavior are assessed at baseline 6- and 12-months Approximately 400 children are to be enrolled
