Technology Assisted Treatment for Binge Eating Behavior

NCT05829941 · Status: UNKNOWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 30

Last updated 2023-04-28

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Binge-eating behavior is a central feature of eating disorders (e.g., binge-eating disorder, bulimia nervosa, anorexia nervosa-binge-eating/purging subtype) and is associated with higher rates of psychopathology, psychosocial impairment, medical comorbidity, and more severe obesity, all of which pose significant public health problems. Passive detection of binge eating episodes combined with a context-based reminder intervention could assist a patient in resuming healthy eating patterns. This study will test a smartwatch app that identifies binge eating behavior and provides CBT strategies to the patient after the episode.
