By Tricitynews Reporter

Chandigarh 18^th August:- The Department of Psychiatry, Postgraduate Institute of Medical Education and Research (PGI), Chandigarh is organising a one and a half day CME-cum-Workshop for psychiatrists on ‘Skill Building for Assessment and Management of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder’ on 20^th and 21^st August, 2016. The academic program shall be held in the Lecture Theatre Complex of PGI, Chandigarh. Prof. Ajit Avasthi, Head, Department of Psychiatry is the Organising Chairperson and Dr. Ruchita Shah and Dr. Akhilesh are the Organizing Secretaries of this program.

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is one of the most common childhood psychiatric conditions and affects about 5% of school-going children. It is a neuro-developmental disorder that begins in childhood, but runs a chronic course. The core symptoms are inattention, hyperactivity and impulsivity. This disorder adversely affects a child’s academic functioning and schooling. Also, it leads to significant problems in other spheres of life such as social and peer relations. A majority of children continue to have symptoms through their adolescence and even upto adulthood. The disorder also negatively affects the quality of life of individuals with ADHD, and the people around them. If left untreated, children are vulnerable to develop conduct symptoms and addictions, indulge in dissocial and impulsive acts and are at higher risk of developing other psychiatric disorders in adulthood. In other words, the consequences of this disorder are far reaching and involve all spheres of an individual’s life and span across his lifetime. ADHD is further associated with substantial financial burden for individuals and families. Despite all the associated impairments, often parents and teachers do not know or recognize the nature of problem and may consider the child to be lazy or deliberately disruptive. Also, they are at a loss about how to best tackle these problems.
