Brief Summary

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

Although numerous studies have demonstrated that a high percentage of primary care providers (PCPs) are knowledgeable about the American Academy of Pediatrics' guidelines for managing ADHD, many fail to implement these guidelines correctly. The goal of this project is to increase the use of evidence-based practices (EBP) for assessing and treating children with ADHD between 5 and 12 years in the context of primary care practice. This randomized controlled trial will evaluate the whether a 3-part intervention (education about ADHD management and communication training, collaborative consultation, and performance feedback regarding use of EBPs) is effective in improving EBP use among primary care providers.

Study Groups

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

Intervention

Clinicians in the intervention arm will receive the three-part intervention (Supporting Practice for ADHD, or SPA) which includes: education about ADHD management and communication training, collaborative consultation, and performance feedback, for the first 8 months of the study.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Supporting Practice for ADHD (SPA)

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

The SPA intervention will last for 8 months for each study arm (first 8 months of the study for the intervention group, last 8 months for the control group). The intervention includes 3 components: 1) a series of web-based educational presentations to provide education to providers about evidence-based practice for managing ADHD and strategies for promoting effective communication with families 2) Collaborative consultation designed to address clinical issues arising in practice will be provided by members of the study team.

3\) Providers will be given systematic performance feedback with regard to their use of evidence-based practices for ADHD every 2 months during the 8-month intervention period.

Control

Clinicians in the control arm will receive no intervention for the first 8 months of the study, then will receive the full SPA intervention for the last 8 months of the study.

Group Type OTHER

Supporting Practice for ADHD (SPA)

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

The SPA intervention will last for 8 months for each study arm (first 8 months of the study for the intervention group, last 8 months for the control group). The intervention includes 3 components: 1) a series of web-based educational presentations to provide education to providers about evidence-based practice for managing ADHD and strategies for promoting effective communication with families 2) Collaborative consultation designed to address clinical issues arising in practice will be provided by members of the study team.

3\) Providers will be given systematic performance feedback with regard to their use of evidence-based practices for ADHD every 2 months during the 8-month intervention period.
