Plasma-Katecholamin-Konzentrationen bei hyperkinetischen Kindern

Author(s): Kiehl, R., Wichmann-Kunz, F., Ona, L., Ona, M.

Abstract: Increased Conner's sores were found in 14 of 15 hyperkinetic children with significantly raised plasma dopamine and/or epinephrine levels. One child with normal circulating catecholamines was identified as false hyperkinetic, his behaviour being determined by an abnormal family interaction. The biochemical interpretation and the diagnostic significance of these results in children with attention deficit disorder and hyperactivity are discussed.
