    Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) affects between 5% and 10% of school-age children, impacting their academic, social and emotional development. This study evaluates the role of nurses in the early detection of ADHD and support for families. A literature review was conducted using Medline and Google Scholar. The results highlight that nursing intervention, through screening tools and family education, significantly reduces parental stress and improves school performance. It is concluded that a multidisciplinary intervention, led by nurses, is key to ensuring effective ADHD management, positively impacting the quality of life of children and their families.
