Bring current symptoms and childhood history into focus.
Before an ADHD assessment, your team needs to organise the replies and understand what each questionnaire contributes. Compare adult screening and history measures, with the clinical interview kept in view.
At a glance
One preparation plan. Different kinds of information.
- ASRS
Current symptom screening
- WURS-25
Retrospective childhood context
- Specialist assessment
Clinician-led interview and review
A returned form is one part of preparation.
The ASRS and WURS-25 serve different purposes. When replies arrive as separate files, your team has to match each one to the request and identify what is still outstanding. Start with a clear view of the information needed for the clinical interview.
- Current symptoms
- Relevant history
- Clinician-led review
A clear purpose for every step.
Start with the information your clinicians need. Use these steps to plan the questionnaire work around the consultation.
- 01
Separate symptoms from history
Shortlist current-symptom and retrospective measures for their different roles. Check the exact forms and intended population before choosing your clinic's pack.
- 02
Define the collection job
Map how your team records requests, identifies outstanding replies and prepares returned forms. Completion status tells an administrator what came back; a clinician decides whether the information is sufficient.
- 03
Keep answers beside results
Plan the review around response detail as well as results. Interviews, corroborating history and diagnostic judgement remain with qualified professionals.
What each measure brings to the review.
Current symptoms, recollections of childhood and a structured interview contribute different information. Compare these roles before choosing the measures for your service.
Adult ADHD self-report screening information about current symptoms. It can inform the questions a clinician explores next; it does not establish ADHD.
Check the exact ASRS form, intended population and permitted digital use.
Read ASRS catalogue details →Adult recollection of childhood behaviour, giving retrospective context that differs from a current-symptom screen.
Retrospective self-report needs clinical context. Corroborate it with developmental history and collateral account where you can.
Read WURS-25 catalogue details →DIVA-5 current-symptom excerpt
The DIVA-related catalogue entry concerns a current-symptom excerpt. The complete DIVA-5 is a clinician-led structured interview with a broader scope.
Reference information about an excerpt, not the complete interview. Official digital use requires the foundation's agreement.

Know why each form is in the pack
Read the purpose of each featured measure beside its catalogue link. The distinction between screening, retrospective history and interview information is clear from the start.
Talk through the work between forms
Bring your request list, completion checks and review requirements to a call. Use the preparation example to explain how your team works today.
Your team's questions, answered.
Assessment purposes, clinical responsibilities and the next step for your service.
Does completing an ASRS mean an ADHD assessment is complete?
No. A screening questionnaire can contribute information, but diagnosis requires a qualified clinician's assessment. Lirena does not diagnose, establish eligibility for treatment or replace the clinical interview.
What does the DIVA-related catalogue entry cover?
A current-symptom excerpt of DIVA-5. The complete instrument is a broader clinician-led structured interview with its own administration and digital-use requirements. The excerpt must not be treated as the complete interview.
Can we collect parent, partner or teacher forms together?
Separate informant collection needs its own confirmed process. These examples cover adult questionnaire preparation. Bring any parent, partner, teacher or paediatric requirements to a call before choosing a workflow.
How does this help an administrator without making a clinical judgement?
An administrator needs to know what was requested and what has returned. Deciding whether the information is sufficient, resolving conflicting accounts and interpreting responses remain clinical tasks.
How do we choose a plan for our clinic?
Compare the current plans on the pricing page. Bring your expected assessment volume, required measures and review process to a call if you need help choosing.
What happens after Get Started or Book Call?
Get Started takes you to account setup. The Free plan requires no card. Book Call lets you choose a time to discuss your clinic's workflow. Please bring measure names and process questions, without patient records or responses.
