Book
The Black Book of ADHD
David W. Goodman, MD – 1st Edition
Introduction
“The Black Book of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder” is a concise presentation of rapidly accessible information important to clinicians diagnosing and treating these patients and their families. I have attempted to cull through the literature and present clinically relevant information in text and table format so that you can quickly find what you need to address the issues of the patient in front of you. I hope you find the format useful for the intended purpose and we welcome feedback for future editions.
Focus Points
- Diagnostic accuracy is increased by establishing age of onset of symptoms, chronicity of symptom course, presenting symptom threshold and impairments, and family history of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder while ruling out co-existing psychiatric disorders.
- Diagnostic prioritization facilitates instituting an effective treatment algorithm.
- Effective pharmacologic treatments take into consideration issues of safety, tolerability and adherence.
- Psychotherapeutic approaches are selected for the individual needs of the patient and family.
