Main Post
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a disorder marked by an ongoing pattern of inattention and/or hyperactivity-impulsivity that interfereswith functioning or development (Buttaro, 2017). The patient in the case is Katie, an 8-year-old schoolgirl with Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder,predominantly inattentive presentation. For a person to receive a diagnosis of ADHD, the symptoms of inattention and/or hyperactivity-impulsivity mustbe chronic or long-lasting, impair the person’s functioning, and cause the person to fall behind typical development for his or her age (NationalCollaborating Centre for Mental Health (UK), 2018). In this case, it can be seen that the patient’s main problem is the inability to concentrate and memorizeimportant information which makes fall behind other students in the class.To improve Katie’s ability to concentrate and help her function better in school,I would order Adderall and Concerta (Woo & Wynee, 2016). These medications work by affecting metabolism and allowing to increase GABAneurotransmitter intake (Buttaro,2017). As a result, the patient’s brain will be able to function more effectively through having more stable impulses due tothe action of the GABA neurotransmitter (National Collaborating Centre for Mental Health (UK), 2018).For this patient, I would also recommend cognitivebehavioral therapy because it helps the brain to work in a more stable way through pre-learned behaving strategies and patters. Besides, the patient willbe able to learn effective concentration techniques and understand what she can do when she feels it is difficult for her to concentrate.
