Evidence on the non-pharmacological treatment of ADHD

Duration: 13 mins Publication Date: 12 Jul 2024 Next Review Date: 12 Jul 2027 DOI: 10.13056/acamh.13684

Description

In this talk, Professor Samuele Cortese examines the effectiveness of non-pharmacological treatments for ADHD, referencing the 2018 NICE guidelines and key findings from a European ADHD Guidelines Group meta-analysis. He highlights that while parent training and other behavioral interventions show benefits in managing associated conduct problems, they have limited impact on core ADHD symptoms. Cortese also introduces promising preliminary results from trials on neurostimulation treatments like external trigeminal nerve stimulation, offering potential new directions in ADHD management.
