摘要

注意力缺失過動症（Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder）是一個學齡兒童常見的心智疾病，根據臨床表現可歸於中醫「風證」、「煩躁」、「健忘」等範疇。在學齡兒童約佔8% ~ 10%。目前尚未確定直接的致病原因，但研究發現與兒茶酚胺代謝的基因突變或遺傳、環境因素有關。根據臨床症狀表現分為多動/衝動型或注意力不集中型，西醫治療以中樞神經興奮劑與三環類抗憂鬱藥為主。中醫病位以心、肝、脾、腎四臟為主，主要病機與先天不足、後天失養導致髓海不足，竅道不暢；或肝腎陰虛，君相火旺，虛陽亢動有關；或者心脾氣血兩虛，心神失養；或過食肥甘厚味、痰熱內擾心神為主，可分為腎虛肝亢，心脾不足，痰熱擾心等證型，治法以填補腎精腎氣，滋腎平肝為主， 配以安神定志或清熱化痰等方式治療。除此之外，同時介紹目前關於注意力缺失過動症的中醫藥相關實證研究，除了中藥內服藥外，更有針灸等方式治療。整體而言，以上方式均對注意力缺失過動症治療有幫助，並且可避免長期服用西藥對兒童所產生的副作用。
