Evidence of effectiveness of specialist supportive clinical management for anorexia nervosa in routine clinical practice: outcomes from a clinical case series
Evidence of effectiveness of specialist supportive clinical management for anorexia nervosa in routine clinical practice: outcomes from a clinical case series
Objective: this study provides a preliminary report on the effectiveness of Specialist Supportive Clinical Management (SSCM) in a clinical case series of adults with anorexia nervosa, to supplement evidence of efficacy from controlled trials.
Method: body mass index (BMI), eating disorder symptoms, mood and anxiety were measured at the start and end of treatment for 42 adults who received SSCM in a community eating disorders service.
Results: significant improvements were observed on all outcome measures, with
larger effect sizes for symptom change than BMI. Recovery rates appear similar to
those in clinical trials.
Discussion: the study offers preliminary support for the effectiveness of SSCM in
routine settings and identifies several areas for further research.
