Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is the most commonly diagnosed neurodevelopmental disorder in childhood. Patients with ADHD present inattention, impulsivity and hyperactivity causing severe impairments on academic achievement, social and professional life and daily functioning. Medications are effective in a majority of children with ADHD, but about 30% do not respond or tolerate stimulants, and some parents refuse pharmacological treatments.Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation is a safe and non-invasive technique of brain stimulation used in several neurological and psychiatric disorders, and recently in ADHD. In patients with ADHD, tDCS stimulations targeted frontal regions improve executive and attentional functioning and daily life symptoms. The objective of this project is to evaluate the efficacy of tDCS (vs sham) during cognitive-remediation exercises on ADHD symptoms (inattention, impulsivity and hyperactivity as defined by DSM-5) in children with ADHD between 7 and 14 years of age.

| Variation of ADHD-RS(ADHD Rating Scale-IV) between both arms | The ADHD Rating Scale-IV is completed independently by the parent and scored by a clinician. The scale consists of 2 subscales: inattention (9 items) and hyperactivity-impulsivity (9 items). If 3 or more items are skipped, the clinician should use extreme caution in interpreting the scale. Results from this rating scale alone should not be used to make a diagnosis. How to Score For inattention (IA) subscale raw score: Add the odd-numbered items For hyperactivity-impulsivity (HI) subscale raw score: Add the even-numbered items To obtain the total raw score: Add the IA and Hi subscale raw scores Convert the raw scores to percentile scores by using the appropriate scoring profile provided on the back of the rating scale. | at 4 weeks |
