Mechanisms of bodily harm in emergency department youths with ADHD.

Objectives: We sought to perform a review of emergency department data to illuminate whether there is a difference in the prevalence of severe injuries in patients with ADHD compared to patients without ADHD. We hope to illuminate whether providers should consider inquiring whether their pediatric patients have ADHD to improve long term outcomes.

Methods: This study is a retrospective cohort study of patient records contained in the TriNetX database, specifically of pediatric patients in this database who presented to an emergency department.
