Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Adolescents suffering of ADHD may have impaired driving performance. The investigators would like to check the differences in driving performance in young adults(aged: 15-18 years) with ADHD by driving simulator and seat pressure mapping with and without methylphenidate medication.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Adolescents with ADHD who are treated with one of the methylphenidate medication that is in use in Israel(Ritalin,Ritalin SR,Concerta,Ritalin LA)will be tested by driving simulator and seat pressure mapping by 2 stages: 1.when they are taking the medication that they are taking every day to control ADHD and: 2. without medication ( after 4 day washout period).

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

methylphenidate

30 adolescents who are treated with Methylphenidate will perform the driving simulator and seat pressure mapping tests, in 2 different days : 1. with their regular methylphenidate medication and 2: without the methylphenidate medication after a 4 days washout period. Results will be recorded and statistical test will be performed.

No interventions assigned to this group

no medication

30 adolescents : control group , not suffering from ADHD and without methylphenidate medication will perform the driving simulator and seat pressure mapping tests. Results will be recorded and statistical test will be performed.

No interventions assigned to this group
