ADHD Testing
We use a platform called QBtech for ADHD testing. This test can treat patients 6-60. The test has two levels of difficulty depending on the age of the patient tested. Patients 6-12 are tested using the lower level and patients 13-60 are tested with the higher level. The test takes approximately 20 minutes to complete and tests for all types of ADHD! This test is then given to the clinician in the form of a report to be read and interpreted. For Qbtech clinicians with a Master's Degree or higher can interpret the testing.
About ADHD
Everybody can have difficulty sitting still, paying attention, or controlling impulsive behavior. However, for some, this is so prevalent in their life that it impacts everything they do.​ Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is one of the most common neurodevelopmental disorders in children and affects around 12% of children and teens. 30% to 60% will continue to have symptoms into adulthood. People with ADHD can do very well in life, but without proper treatment the likelihood of failing to do most normal tasks such as school, work, effective communication, and more. Early identification and proper treatment of ADHD are essential to give people affected by ADHD the best chance for success.​ ​Typically, ADHD symptoms arise in early childhood, however they can arise in adulthood as well. It can be hard to tell if a child has more ADHD symptoms of impulsivity or inattentiveness. In making the diagnosis, children should have at least six or more symptoms of either inattention or hyperactivity/impulsivity; ages 17 and older should have at least five of the symptoms present.

​
Attention
Patients follow an attention-based task on the computer screen and press a responder button every time the same shape and color appear in sequence.
Inattention is measured by variations in the correct response time to the stimuli on the screen. 
Activity
While your patients complete the attention-based task on the computer, activity is measured through a laptop camera which tracks the patient’s movements. (Rest assured the test does not record you. The Qbtech test uses your camera to capture reflections off your face. This is how we can measure hyperactivity with microevents, down to the millimeter.)
​
Our technology can pick up on the smallest of movements with 1mm precision.
Impulsivity
Impulsivity is measured by the number and speed of incorrect responses given.
​
For example, if patients press the responder button before or after stimuli show on the screen, or when a shape and color haven’t appeared in sequence.
