Cultural Considerations for Working with South Asian Youth
South Asian American (SAA) youth are culturally diverse with respect to migration patterns, language, religion, and social determinants of health. Culturally specific stressors related to family, acculturation, discrimination, and intersectionality converge during developmentally sensitive periods, impacting mental health and identity development. “Model minority” stereotypes and somatic expressions of distress contribute to underdetection and limited perceived need for treatment. SAA families navigate structural barriers, including limited access to culturally tailored services, limited English proficiency, referral b...

Promoting Resiliency and Eliminating Disparities –Best Practices when Working with Child Welfare Involved Youth of Color
The US child welfare system has a long history of racial disproportionality and subsequent disparities. These disparities have been perpetuated by discriminatory laws and policies in our federal and state governments, coupled with a system of care that is fraught with the risk of biases in child welfare practices and procedures. Child psychiatrists should have a knowledge base of these inequities to help ensure culturally and trauma-informed care for child welfare involved youth and families. As physician leaders with knowledge of child development, child psychiatrists can also help inform inclusive legislation, policies, ...

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder Medications and Sleep
Sleep problems are common and often increase when initiating pharmacotherapy for ADHD. Stimulants are commonly associated with delayed sleep onset/insomnia although nonstimulants can be associated with daytime sleepiness. There is a wide variability in severity and duration of sleep effects, but most effects are mild and improve over time. Although sleep problems occur in all age groups, preschoolers and adolescents appear to be more vulnerable to adverse effects on sleep than adults and children. Interventions to improve sleep include behavioral therapy, changing dose schedules or formulations, and adding a sleep-promotin...

A Review of Clinical Practice Guidelines in the Diagnosis and Treatment of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder
Clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) are systematically developed statements to assist practitioner and patient decisions about appropriate health care for specific clinical circumstances. CPGs have evolved during the last 2  decades from general consensus statements by prominent practitioners in the field to highly structured instruments. The Institute of Medicine has laid out specific standards for selecting the experts who develop a CPG and the process by which CPGs are developed. Attention-deficit/hyperactivity dis order (ADHD) has been the focus of more than 20 CPGs created by governments and professional societies, b...

Measurement Informed Care in Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
Measurement-informed care is a cornerstone of evidence-based practice and shared decision-making. A structured diagnostic interview specific to ADHD provides a globally agreed-on standard of evaluation. These interviews are accessible in the public domain in multiple languages and are helpful to clinicians new to the diagnosis of ADHD. Broad-based rating scales looking at multiple domains of psychopathology are critical to assuring recognition of comorbid diagnoses, which might otherwise be missed, differential diagnoses, and identification of the most prominent or treatable diagnosis. Recent innovations in computerized ad...

Options for pharmacotherapy include stimulant and nonstimulant therapies administered with careful monitoring of dosage and compliance to optimize efficacy.
