  2. Definition

    Attention-Deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) neurodevelopmental condition with secondary behavioural, social, and educational difficulties. ADHD is defined as a behavioural syndrome characterized by the core symptoms of hyperactivity, impulsivity, and inattention which can lead to psychological, social, education, or occupational impairment. ADHD can be identified with Read Codes (primary care) and/or ICD-10 codes. Read codes and ICD-10 codes have been taken from previously validated code lists (John et al, 2022) and include diagnoses and prescriptions.
