Accreditation: Pharmacists: L01-P Technicians: L01-T Nurses: N-669 Attention deficit without hyperactivity: Predominantly Inattentive Type ADHD CE Credits: 1.0 contact hour Target Audience: Pharmacists, Technicians & Nurses Program Overview: Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder is a syndrome of behaviors characterized by inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. ADHD affects approximately 10% of the childhood population and it is estimated that somewhere between 10 and 60 % of childhood ADHD cases will persist into adulthood. Even though the exact cause or causes of ADHD are unknown, it is known that ADHD is a neural-chemical problem that effects the management systems, or executive functions of the brain. While the stereotypical child with ADHD exhibits many hyperactive and impulsive behaviors, there are actually three subtypes of ADHD: predominantly inattentive type, hyperactivity-impulsive type, and combination type. Boys are at least two times as likely to be diagnosed with ADHD than girls, but girls are more likely than boys to have inattentive type ADHD. These school-aged girls are often not diagnosed because they sit quietly in their seats and do not pose a discipline problem in the classroom. This program will define ADHD and its subtypes, discuss possible causes, review the structures of the brain thought to be affected in ADHD, define executive function, and discuss current treatment options. And emphasis will be placed on presentation, diagnosis, and treatment of girls with inattentive-type ADHD. Objectives: Define the term attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, its subtypes, and the overall incidence of ADHD in both child and adult population Review the etiology of ADHD as well as dispel some of the myths associated with this disorder Identify current treatments for children with ADHD with an emphasis on predominantly inattentive type ADHD This webcast has been supported by PharmCon Attention deficit without hyperactivity: Predominantly Inattentive Type ADHD Speaker: Ellen Wilson is a freelance educator based in Greenville, SC. She received a B.S. in Pharmacy and a PhD in Pharmaceutical Sciences from the University of South Carolina. Her pharmacy practice experiences include retail, hospital, and consulting pharmacy. She also has nearly ten years of collegiate teaching experience at both four-year and two-year institutions. Currently, she teaches online chemistry courses and writes pharmacy continuing education. Ellen lives in Greenville with her husband, two daughters, one cocker spaniel, and a once-stray cat. She is an active volunteer at both church and school, enjoys gardening and backyard birding, and is trying to master the art of French cooking.

There is far more evidence to suggest a genetic basis for ADHD. Myth #3 The Brain and ADHD Myth Truth ADHD is caused by a lack of willpower. People with ADHD should just try harder. ADHD is a neuralchemical problem that effects the brain & its executive functions.
