Summary

In a pilot study, the investigators will validate a so-called autism care location in an inpatient ward. The care location will be adapted for patients with anorexia nervosa (AN) and concurrent autism (AN+autism). In order to investigate the effect of a tailored care location for patients with AN + autism, the evaluation will include weight development and changes in nutritional intake, eating disorder and anxiety symptoms. The overall aim is to improve treatment for this specific AN subgroup, that otherwise has a worse prognosis regarding AN recovery.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

Anorexia nervosa plus autism

In the inpatient care the treatment model takes into account the patient's perception disorders, meaning e.g. an adapted mealtime situation where the patient can eat separately or wear hearing protection if necessary. The patients have an adapted meal plan regarding difficulties with specific textures or foods. To meet their need for continuity, they have the same contact persons throughout the entire period of care. The healthcare staff receive training in working with the specific subgroup and have regular exchanges of experience regarding the patient group, 15 minutes every or every two weeks.
