Trial Outcomes & Findings for The Impact of Osmotic Release Oral Delivery System Methylphenidate (OROS MPH) Upon Family of Children and Adolescents With Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) (NCT NCT00758160)

NCT ID: NCT00758160

Last Updated: 2014-04-08

Results Overview

Parents were asked to assess their children on a 26-item Chinese SNAP-IV questionnaire consisting of inattention (items 1-9; subscore range 0-27), hyperactivity (items 10-18; subscore range 0-27) and oppositional (19-26, subscore range 0-24) subscales used to assess the qualitative judgments in Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Each item was based on a 4-point likert scale ranging from 0 (not at all) to 3 (very much). The overall score ranged from 0 to 78. The total score for Inattention and hyperactivity ranged from 0 to 27 and for oppositional ranged from 0 to 21. Mean Change was calculated as mean SNAP-IV score at Week 2 minus mean SNAP-IV score at Baseline.

The CHQ is a self administered screening instrument used to assess psychiatric morbidity in the Chinese community. It was derived from the General Health Questionnaire, and has been validated with satisfactory construct validity and applied in the survey of psychiatric morbidity in the community and in hospital settings. Four factors are included in the structure: somatic symptoms; anxiety and worrying; sleep problems; and depression and poor family relationships. It contains 12 items, with a maximum score of 12. CHQ scores indicated the severity of participants' psychological problems (0-2=normal; 3-4=minor; 5-6=moderate; and 7-12=severe psychological problems). Mean Change was calculated as mean CHQ score at Week 4 minus mean CHQ score at Baseline.

Parents of the participants were asked to assess the Family APGAR which is a 5-item questionnaire designed to assess the 5 dimensions of perceived family support: Adaptation, Partnership, Growth, Affection, and Resolve. Each item is rated on a 3-point scale ranging from 0 to 2 where 0=hardly ever, 1=some of the time and 2=almost always. The total score ranges from 0 to 10 with greater scores indicating greater family support.

SAICA is a 77-item semi-structured interview scale designed for administration to school-aged children with age 6-18 years, or to their parents about their children. SAICA provides an evaluation of children's current functioning in the domains of school, spare time, peer relations, and home behaviors. Each item ranged on a 4-point likert scale ranging from 1 to 4 with a higher mean score indicating either poorer social function or a more severe social problem.
