“…et al have not found any statistically significant correlation between hyperactivity/impulsivity scores and unwanted accidents though they have found significant correlation between attention deficit and accidents (11). Our results and literature data point to the idea that attention deficit is associated with undesirable accidents although intra-articular bleeding in haemophilia patients is more related to bumps and falls due to extreme mobility of these children.…”

“…It has often been reported that children diagnosed with ADHD have a more higher rate of getting injured due to frequent accidents (10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17). The fact that children with ADHD suffer injuries due to frequent accidents has recurrently been associated with attention deficiency, hyperactivity, and impulsivity, all of which are the basic conditions in ADHD (18)(19)(20).…”

“…Therefore, prevention of accidents is very important for haemophilia patients. Several studies have shown that risk of having accidents is high in children with ADHD (10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17). In addition, it has also been reported that children with ADHD have a higher risk of severe and multiple injuries along with longer hospital stays (16,(29)(30).…”

Aim: Intra-articular bleedings in haemophilia patients and movement restrictions and joint deformities that occur as a result of these bleedings constitute an important health problem and deteriorate the quality of life for children. The purpose of this study is to investigate the relation between intra-articular bleedings and symptom severity of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and disruptive behavior disorders in children and adolescents with haemophilia. Method: 24 boys with haemophilia were included in the study. During the interviews with children and their mothers, their sociodemographic features and frequency of intra-articular bleedings were examined. Following the interviews, mothers were asked to fill out the Disruptive Behavior Disorder Screening and Rating Scale based on Turgay Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders Fourth Edition, Text Revision. SPSS for Windows 16.0 software program was used for the statistical analysis of the study. Results: As a result of the correlation analysis, no relation was determined between the symptom severity of attention deficit and frequency of intra-articular bleeding (p>0.05). A statistically significant positive relation was determined between the frequency of bleedings within the knee and ankle joints and symptom severities of hyperactivity, impulsivity, oppositional defiant disorder, and conduct disorder (p<0.05). No significant relation was detected between the frequency of bleedings within the elbow joint and subscale scores (p>0.05). Conclusion: The results of our study have made us think that the frequency of bleeding especially within the knee and ankle joints is related with the symptom severity of hyperactivity/impulsivity, oppositional defiant disorder, and conduct disorder, and children having frequent bleedings within these joints should be evaluated from this aspect along with prophylactic treatment. Key Words: Hemophilia; Attention Deficit And Hyperactivity Disorder; Intraarticular Bleeding. Hemofilili Çocuk ve Ergenlerde Eklem İçi Kanamalar İle Dikkat Eksikliği ve Hiperaktivite Bozukluğu Belirti Şiddeti Arasındaki İlişkinin İncelenmesiÖzet Amaç: Hemofili hastalarında ortaya çıkan eklem içi kanamalar ve buna bağlı ortaya çıkan hareket kısıtlılıkları, eklem deformiteleri önemli bir sağlık sorunu oluşturmakta, çocuğun yaşam kalitesini bozmaktadır. Çalışmamızda hemofilili çocuk ve ergenlerde eklem içi kanamalar ile dikkat eksikliği ve hiperaktivite bozukluğu ve yıkıcı davranış bozuklukları belirti şiddeti arasındaki ilişkinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Yöntem: Çalışmaya hemofilili 24 erkek çocuk dahil edildi. Çocuklar ve anneleri ile yapılan görüşmede sosyodemografik özellikler ve eklem içi kanama sıklığı sorgulandı.

Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a highly prevalent psychiatric disorder in children/adolescents. This study reviews available European-based studies of ADHD-related costs and applies the findings to the Netherlands to estimate annual national costs for children/adolescents from a societal perspective. A systematic literature search was conducted for primary studies in Europe, published January 1, 1990 through April 23, 2013. Per-person cost estimates were converted to 2012 Euros and used to estimate annual national ADHD-related costs based on the Dutch 2011 census, ADHD prevalence rates, family composition, and employment rates. Seven studies met the inclusion criteria. The average total ADHD-related costs ranged from €9,860 to €14,483 per patient and annual national costs were between €1,041 and €1,529 million (M). The largest cost category was education (€648 M), representing 62 and 42 % of the low- and high-value overall national estimates, respectively. By comparison, ADHD patient healthcare costs ranged between €84 M (8 %) and €377 M (25 %), and social services costs were €4.3 M (0.3–0.4 %). While the majority of the costs were incurred by ADHD patients themselves, €161 M (11–15 %) was healthcare costs to family members that were attributable to having an ADHD child/adolescent. In addition, productivity losses of family members were €143–€339 M (14–22 %). Despite uncertainties because of the small number of studies identified and the wide range in the national cost estimates, our results suggest that ADHD imposes a significant economic burden on multiple public sectors in Europe. The limited number of European-based studies examining the economic burden of ADHD highlights the need for more research in this area.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (doi:10.1007/s00787-013-0477-8) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.

Association between penetrating eye injuries and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder in children

et al. 2015

There was an association between penetrating eye injuries and inattentiveness, hyperactivity, oppositional defiant disorder and conduct disorder in boys, and conduct disorder in girls. An appropriate evaluation of ADHD symptoms may prevent vision loss due to penetrating eye injuries in children. In addition, evaluation by a child psychiatrist of children presenting with penetrating eye injuries may prevent repetition of injuries.
