Summary

Electroencephalogram (EEG) abnormalities are common in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), particularly in the temporal lobe. While EEG can identify epileptogenic foci, it doesn't correlate with seizures or educational outcomes in ADHD patients.

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by persistent inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. It affects approximately 5-8% of children globally, with around 60-70% of cases persisting into adulthood. ADHD has significant implications for educational attainment, social interactions, and occupational success.
Diagnostic Criteria and Symptoms
To diagnose ADHD, symptoms must manifest before age 12 and be evident across multiple settings.
