The winter vacation has begun, and the number of "learning difficulties" outpatient clinics in many hospitals has continued to rise, and some experts are hard to find. There has been a significant increase in the number of primary school students, and the "learning difficulties" that these children often exhibit make parents anxious.
So, what are the conditions of a child that are considered "learning difficulties"? How to adjust "learning difficulties" during the winter break? Recently, the reporter came to the outpatient site of the Municipal Children's Hospital, and learned about the situation from a number of hospitals, and asked doctors to make suggestions for students and parents.
Scene. The expert number is basically full, and some parents are in a hurry to seek medical treatment.
In the Children's Health Department of the Municipal Children's Hospital, many parents bring their children to the "Learning Difficulties - ADHD" outpatient consultation.
Entering the winter vacation, the expert number was basically filled in advance, and the number of primary school students who came for treatment increased a lot. During the school day, it is inconvenient for parents and children to take time off, which leads to a significant increase in the number of people seeking medical treatment at the beginning of the vacation. Li Huiping, executive director of the Children's Health Center of Xiamen Children's Hospital, said that most parents who bring their children to the hospital report that their children have difficulty concentrating in class and do not listen to their parents in life.
According to her mother's statement, Xiao Mu often can't concentrate in class, procrastinates in doing homework, and has poor discipline, and her mother often receives "complaints" from teachers. Xiao Zhu in the middle class of kindergarten also followed her parents to the "learning difficulties" outpatient clinic. Xiao Zhu's mother told reporters that Xiao Zhu was very active after going to kindergarten, unable to be quiet, and her eyes were wandering when communicating with others, and she often had to repeat to confirm whether the child listened to her. After a number of examinations, the doctor confirmed that Xiao Zhu is a typical behavioral impulsive ADHD, and this is Xiao Zhu's second follow-up visit.
'Learning difficulties' is actually a general term, which can be subdivided into attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, idiopathic learning disorder, writing, reading, math disorders, etc., mostly concentrated in school-age children between the ages of 6 and 12. Li Huiping said.
Observe. There has been a significant increase in ADHD among primary school students.
The reporter learned that at present, a number of hospitals in our city have opened "learning difficulties" outpatient clinics, including the city's fifth hospital, the city's Xianyue Hospital, the city's maternal and child health hospital, the city's ** hospital, etc., since the winter vacation, the number of patients has increased to varying degrees.
The reporter learned from the "Learning Disabilities Clinic" of Xianyue Hospital that the clinic has been in a situation where the appointment is full for a long time, and this is the case since the winter vacation. "The more obvious change is that there is a lot of ADHD among elementary school students. Li Yun, deputy chief physician of Xianyue Hospital, introduced. In addition to Xianyue Hospital, many hospitals reported that there has been a significant increase in the number of primary school students with ADHD, according to incomplete statistics, the proportion has increased by 30%-40%.
What are the manifestations of ADHD? Liu Wenlong, deputy chief physician of the Municipal Maternal and Child Health Hospital, explained, for example, there will be some problems in classroom discipline, such as love to answer, love to interject, love to talk to classmates in class, or look around in class, do some small actions, and the organization and planning of doing things will also be damaged. In learning, especially when writing homework, it is easy to skip lines, skip words, miss questions, write in series, and make calculation errors, and the academic performance fluctuates greatly. People around such children often comment that they look smart and responsive, but they have a poor attitude towards learning. So, will your child be able to improve quickly after the appointment? Deputy Chief Physician Liu Wenlong said that through drug and ** training, some students have improved significantly, mainly reflected in the improvement of self-control and concentration, and the improvement of grades that parents are concerned about varies from person to person and requires a process.
Doctor advisesLess contact with electronics, more exercise and more labor.
How can parents help their children adjust their learning difficulties? Zhang Ying, an expert outpatient doctor at the Shanghai Municipal Children's Hospital, suggested that parents should let their children touch less electronic products at home during the winter vacation. Electronic products, especially mobile phones and tablets, produce short sounds, light stimuli, etc., which can easily destroy children's ability to establish stable attention. At home during the holidays, parents should accompany their children to do more sports and do housework appropriately. In addition, parents can do more parent-child reading with their children, such as reading paper picture books, etc., parents communicate more with their children, pay attention to adjusting the tone when communicating, and try to avoid accusations and commanding communication. In the process of intervention, parents should establish a harmonious parent-child relationship to help children build self-confidence; On the other hand, school teachers need to give more understanding to children with "learning difficulties".
