Pediatric Collections: ADHD Evaluation and Care

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a common childhood disorder, and every pediatrician will see children who are coping with the resulting behavioral and educational difficulties. It is a serious condition that can lead to school underachievement, social isolation, and family disruption in childhood and substance use, depression, risky impulsive behaviors, and motor vehicle collisions in adolescence. Yet, many primary care pediatricians feel that they do not have the experience or expertise to manage children with ADHD. Pediatric Collections—ADHD: Evaluation and Care, with its broad coverage of multiple aspects of this disorder, goes a long way in supporting pediatricians whether they diagnose and/or treat ADHD or provide expert guidance and support to families. This collection is an important and useful tool for all pediatricians who want to help children with behavioral and educational concerns. Children with ADHD who are treated have a better quality of life; they can achieve more educationally and socially. Pediatricians can make a tremendous difference in the life of a child with ADHD—and I believe that we are up to the task.
