Diagnostic criteria for anorexia nervosa

edit

ICD-11 Criteria

Anorexia Nervosa is characterized by significantly low body weight, which is less than minimal normal/expected weight for the individual’s height, sex, age and developmental stage (body mass index (BMI) less than 18.5 kg/m2 in adults and BMI-for-age under fifth percentile in children and adolescents) that is not due to another health condition or to the unavailability of food. Low body weight is accompanied by a persistent pattern of behaviors to prevent restoration of normal weight, which may include behaviors aimed at reducing energy intake (restricted eating), purging behaviors (e.g., self-induced vomiting, misuse of laxatives), and behaviors aimed at increasing energy expenditure (e.g., excessive exercise), typically associated with a fear of weight gain. Low body weight or shape is central to the person's self-evaluation or is inaccurately perceived to be normal or even excessive.

Changes in DSM-5

  • The diagnostic criteria for anorexia nervosa changed slightly from DSM-IV to DSM-5. Summaries are available here and here.


Base rates of anorexia nervosa in different populations and clinical settings

edit

This section describes the demographic setting of the population(s) sampled, base rates of diagnosis such as prevalence rates, country/region sampled, and the diagnostic method that was used. Using this information, clinicians will be able to anchor the rate of adolescent depression that they are likely to see in their clinical practice.

Psychometric properties of screening instruments for anorexia nervosa

edit

The following section contains a list of screening and diagnostic instruments for eating disorders, including anorexia nervosa. The Eating Disorder Diagnosis Scale (EDDS) outputs diagnostic categories of various eating disorders based on the DSM. The section includes administration information, psychometric data, and PDFs or links to the screenings.

  • Screenings are used as part of the prediction phase of assessment; for more information on interpretation of this data, or how screenings fit in to the assessment process, click here.

Process phase

edit

The following section contains a brief overview of treatment options for anorexia nervosa and a list of process and outcome measures for anorexia nervosa. The section includes benchmarks based on published norms for several outcome and severity measures, as well as information about commonly used process measures. It is worth noting, however, in inpatient or other acute care settings, weight restoration is the primary goal of treatment for anorexia nervosa, making body weight the most closely monitored process indicator. Process and outcome measures are used as part of the process phase of assessment. For more information on the differences between process and outcome measures, see the page on the process phase of assessment.

Process measures

edit

Body weight is commonly monitored by clinicians throughout the AN treatment process as helping individuals regain and maintain a healthy weight is a primary treatment goal for AN. Many treatment centers have policies prohibiting patients from seeing their weight.

Motivational Stages of Change may be used to monitor individuals’ readiness to take action against eating disorder behaviors. It has demonstrated predictive validity in a sample of female adolescents attending eating disorder treatment groups.[27] See Appendix E.

Outcome and severity measures

Treatment

edit
More information on treatment for AN
  • Treatment of AN typically consists of restoring the individual to a healthy weight and addressing thoughts and behaviors which are related to the eating disorder. It may involve re-nutrition, psychotherapy, nutritional counseling, and medication.
  • Literature reviews of existing research indicate that evidence supporting AN treatment is lacking. A systematic review of AN treatment efficacy studies by Bulik[30] found that evidence supporting medications, medications and behavioral interventions, and behavioral interventions alone in adults is weak.
  • There is moderately strong evidence suggesting that behavioral interventions may be helpful for adolescents. In particular, adolescents may benefit from family therapy.
  • Clinical trials investigating AN treatment suffer from high rates of attrition, as key features of AN (e.g., denial, fear of weight gain) may contribute to low motivation for remaining in treatment.
  • More severe cases of AN may be treated in inpatient settings, which are equipped to manage the re-nutrition process and provide medical monitoring.
  • Partial hospitalization and intensive outpatient programs may provide intermediate levels of treatment intensity to assist individuals in the transition from intensive care to outpatient care after weight restoration.
