Attention deficit / hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) starts in childhood and presents as the most common symptoms the lack of attention, hyperactivity and difficulty in self-control. Brain-Computer Interfaces (BCIs) can assist in the treatment of patients with ADHD. In this context, this article is a systematic review that aimed to report how the BCI are being used in the treatment of children with ADHD based on the hypothesis that the use of BCIs corroborates with the improving the treatment of these children. For this, a bibliographic analysis was carried out in the scientific publications present in the digital libraries IEEE Xplore, PubMed and ScienceDirect. In the analysis, publications from 2015 to 2020 in english were considered. Differents hardwares were used to treat children with ADHD through BCIs in general associated with interactive digital games. The BCIs used played an important role being able to consider that they corroborated for improvements in the attention, social and behavioral skills, as well as, in reorganizing the functional brain network.
