ABSTRACT=Objective
To review literature regarding existing and recommended role for nurses in the management of children with ADHD. 
Method
Medline and Cinahl were searched from 2010 to the end of 2019 with the following steps of search: Nurse, ADHD, child* and inclusion criteria published in an English journal and available in the University Library of Bergen.

Fourty three record were found. However, only five articles scientifically evaluated the nurse role. The nurse role in ADHD management seemed to vary and in this review we found nurses working either independently or as a part of a team with delegated responsibility.
