ADHD-Primarily : Inattentive Type is a clinical diagnosis made by a Developmental/Behavioral Pediatrician or Child Psychiatrist using history, current functioning at home & school, & neuropsychological exam results for a Neurodevelopmental evaluation. A bright child can pass a Continuous Performance Test. The history also warrants a pediatric neurology consult to rule out minor motor, or Petit Mal, seizures.
