ADHD: clinical practice guideline for the diagnosis, evaluation, and treatment of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder in children and adolescents.

http://www.guidelines.gov/content.aspx?id=36881

This guideline has been developed to advise on the treatment and management of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). The guideline recommendations have been developed by a multidisciplinary team of healthcare professionals, service users and carers, and guideline methodologists after careful consideration of the best available evidence. It is intended that the guideline will be useful to clinicians and service commissioners in providing and planning high-quality care for people with ADHD while also emphasising the importance of the experience of care for them and their carers (see Appendix 1 for more details on the scope of the guideline).

I first heard 'pauta' to refer to the piece of ruled paper people used to place underneath blank writing paper, to help them write in straight lines without having to rule lines in pencil. Literally a page of guidelines.

I think there's one in my old writing case which, for some reason, I haven't thrown away yet.
