This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing whether acupuncture combined with traditional can help children with ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) improve their focus, attention, and ability to manage daily activities. Some children will receive acupuncture alongside the herbal medicine, while others will receive the herbal medicine alone. The researchers will measure changes in ADHD symptoms and ask families about their experience with the treatment.
Many children with ADHD take stimulant medications or use behavioral therapy, but families are increasingly interested in complementary approaches like acupuncture. This trial exists to find out whether this treatment could be an effective option for children who may want alternatives or who do not respond well to standard treatments.

If you join this study, your child will be randomly assigned to either receive acupuncture plus herbal medicine or herbal medicine alone. You will visit the hospital for treatment sessions and assessments at the beginning, after treatment ends, and at follow-up visits. The research team will measure your child's ADHD symptoms using standardized tests and will also conduct interviews with you, your child, and the clinicians to understand how the treatment is working and how your family feels about the experience.
