Summary

This study tracks 250 teens with ADHD aged 16-17 over two years using smartphone apps and a Fitbit. The goal is to understand what changes happen during this transition and what predicts negative outcomes. Researchers will then co-design a smartphone app with teens to help them manage their ADHD and stay engaged with healthcare.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to a smartphone app that helps young people with ADHD manage their condition and stay connected with healthcare during the transition to adult services.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It will not directly test any drug or therapy, and the app prototype may not be effective in real-world use.
