Abstract

Objective To preliminarily test the diagnostic efficacy of integrated visual and auditory continuous performance test (IVA-CPT) in attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD),in order to provide a pathway for better clinical diagnosis of ADHD. Methods The diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders fourth edition (DSM-Ⅳ) was used as diagnosis standard,73 cases with clinical diagnosis of ADHD by Conners Parent Symptom Questionnaire(PSQ),Chinese Wechsler intelligence scale for children and IVA-CPT and 41 healthy children were tested;Then the result of IVA-CPT between the two groups and the differences between IVA-CPT type and DSM-IV type in the case group were compared. Results The difference on IVA-CPT result between the case group and the control group was statistically significant (P<0.05).The differences of IVA-CPT type and DSM-IV type in the case group were not statistically significant (P>0.05). Conclusion IVA-CPT may be an affective tool to help clinical doctor to auxiliarily diagnose ADHD.
