Adding objective ADHD technology can help to: 1. Improve diagnostic accuracy 2. Shorten time to diagnosis 3. Capture treatment response not reflected by rating scales

QbCheck is an FDA-cleared test measuring all 3 core symptom domains; hyperactivity, impulsivity, and inattention. QbCheck is used when evaluating ADHD symptoms and measuring response to ADHD treatment. QbCheck involves a 15 or 20-minute computer-based task that measures your (or your child’s) ability to maintain attention and impulse control. Meanwhile, an your computer’s camera tracks movements, and therefore activity, during the test. The results are based on a comparison of your (or your child’s) performance with data from other people of the same sex and age who do not have ADHD

A diagnostic assessment for ADHD involves three main parts: gathering a clinical history through an interview with your provider, an objective measurement of symptoms using QbTest, and the completion of one or more rating scales.

Common side effects of Vivitrol may include injection site reactions, nausea, headache, dizziness, and fatigue. It is important to discuss any concerns about side effects with your healthcare provider.

Clinical studies have shown that Vivitrol can help reduce cravings, decrease alcohol consumption, and prevent relapse in individuals with AUD. Similarly, Vivitrol has been shown to reduce opioid use and prevent relapse in individuals with OUD.

Vivitrol may be suitable for individuals with AUD or OUD who are motivated to achieve and maintain sobriety. It is important to undergo a thorough evaluation by a healthcare provider to determine if Vivitrol is appropriate for you.

Suboxone helps reduce cravings for opioids and alleviate withdrawal symptoms, making it easier for individuals to abstain from opioid use. It also has a lower risk of respiratory depression and overdose compared to full opioid agonists.

Common side effects of Suboxone may include nausea, headache, constipation, sweating, and insomnia. These side effects are usually mild and temporary. However, it's important to discuss any concerns with your healthcare provider.

Suboxone is usually taken as a sublingual film or tablet placed under the tongue. It is absorbed through the mucous membranes in the mouth. The dosage and frequency of Suboxone administration are determined by a healthcare provider based on individual needs and response to treatment.

Buprenorphine in Suboxone works by attaching to the same receptors in the brain as opioids, but it produces weaker effects, helping to reduce cravings and withdrawal symptoms. Naloxone is added to deter misuse; if Suboxone is injected, the naloxone can precipitate withdrawal symptoms.

Many individuals experience rapid antidepressant effects within hours to days after a ketamine infusion or injection. However, the timeline may vary from person to person, and some individuals may require multiple sessions to achieve optimal results.

Ketamine works by modulating neurotransmitter systems in the brain, particularly glutamate, which plays a key role in mood regulation. It is believed to promote the growth of new synaptic connections and enhance neural plasticity, leading to rapid antidepressant and anxiolytic effects.

Ketamine therapy involves the use of ketamine, a dissociative anesthetic, as a treatment for various mental health conditions, including depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and bipolar disorder. Ketamine can be administered via intravenous (IV) infusion or intramuscular (IM) injection under the supervision of a trained healthcare provider.

Ketamine therapy is generally considered safe when administered by trained healthcare professionals in a controlled clinical setting. However, like any medical treatment, it carries potential risks and side effects, which will be thoroughly discussed with you before starting treatment.

The number of ketamine therapy sessions needed varies depending on individual response, the severity of symptoms, and treatment goals. Your healthcare provider will work with you to develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.

Ketamine therapy has shown promising results in treating treatment-resistant depression, severe anxiety, PTSD, and bipolar depression. It may also be beneficial for individuals experiencing acute suicidal ideation or those who have not responded to traditional antidepressant medications.

While insurance may cover FDA-approved ketamine nasal spray (Spravato) for the treatment of depression, it typically does not cover intravenous ketamine therapy for psychiatric indications. We recommend contacting your insurance provider to verify coverage details and discuss potential reimbursement options.

Ketamine therapy may be a suitable option for individuals who have not responded to traditional treatments for depression, anxiety, PTSD, or bipolar disorder. If you are considering ketamine therapy, we encourage you to schedule a consultation with one of our experienced healthcare providers to discuss your treatment options and determine if ketamine therapy is right for you.

Ketamine therapy sessions typically last for a designated period, during which you will receive the medication via intravenous infusion or intramuscular injection. You will be closely monitored throughout the session to ensure your safety and comfort.

Common side effects of ketamine therapy may include dissociation, dizziness, nausea, increased heart rate, and changes in blood pressure. These side effects are usually transient and resolve shortly after the infusion or injection.
