title: [Attention deficit syndrome (ADS)].
abstract: Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in Germany is diagnosed more often than in the past. Its growing popularity is one reason for this. In the USA and Switzerland, where ADHD is better known, ADHD is diagnosed twice as often as in Germany. I have attempted to summarize epidemiological data and therapies. The various symptoms of the disease are described and the prognosis is shown, especially as these relate to life and PHI products.
