[Effect of Aponeuron in the treatment of children with hyperkinetic syndrome]

The submitted original paper deals with hyperactivity of children (ADHD) and their treatment by means of the stimulant Aponeuron. The authors made a long-term, double blind, placebo controlled trial which comprised more than 20 hyperactive children. The applied methods are described in detail and the results of individual investigations are summarized. Moreover it is a subject to which in the local professional literature, contrary to that in other countries, little attention was paid, although it is a frequent disorder. Administration of Aponeuron (and stimulations in general) proved useful in the treatment of this disorder. The subtle and crude motorics improved, symptoms of hyperactivity disappeared and the general school performance of the child improved.
