注意力缺陷多动障碍（ADHD）的特征是注意力不集中，冲动和多动。DSM-IV诊断ADHD需要存在9个项目或特征中的6个，这些项目或特征必须存在至少6个月，在7岁之前发作，并导致显著的痛苦或损害。(1)在一般人群中，ADHD的患病率约为5%。(2)癫痫与注意力和行为问题（包括ADHD）的共病率很高，据估计，至少有20%的癫痫患者可能存在ADHD的特征。（五）
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is characterised by inattention, impulsivity, and hyperactivity. The DSM-IV diagnosis of ADHD requires the presence of six of nine items or features that must have been present for at least six months, to have had an onset before 7 years of age, and to have resulted in significant distress or impairment.(1) In the general population, the prevalence of ADHD is approximately 5%.(2) There is a high co-morbidity of epilepsy and attentional and behavioural problems,(3 4) including ADHD, and it has been estimated that at least 20% of patients with epilepsy may present with features of ADHD.(5)
