Assessment of ADHD
We assess the existence of attention disorders using several diagnostic methods. First, parents and or teachers complete a questionnaire consisting of diagnostic material in the DSM-IV. Then the patient is hooked up to the EEG computer system so those brainwaves can be observed. The patient is given a mental challenge (e.g., subtracting backwards or performing other mental exercises appropriate for age level) to observe the brain waves in an engaged condition. Attention disorders neurologically are excessive amounts of low frequency theta (4-7 Hz) brainwaves.Please call Better Brain Care, LLC, to schedule an appointment for evaluation and demonstration.
