2 Case Study Your next patient is a 14 year old male. He is a new patient to your practice. The family just moved here from another state. The mother of the patient states that she is worried her son has lost weight. Should you be worried that this patient has an eating disorder? A. Yes B. No C. I don t know yet Answer A.

Remember that eating disorders: Can affect boys as well as girls Increasing rates in males Estimates that 15 to 30% of eating disorder patients overall are male Can be present in younger and older patients than previously thought Increasing rates in very young children Increasing rates in older adults Can affect people of all ethnicities and backgrounds Increasing rates in minorities Not limited to any one socio economic group Can be present in people at normal weight Increasing rates of Anorexia Nervosa in patients that were previously obese Most patients with Bulimia Nervosa are at normal weights
3 Further history You are concerned so you ask for more information. You learn that: Six months ago at a check up he weighed 180 pounds. He was teased by his peers for being chubby in middle school He started to eat healthier after a talk in his health class. At first he ate more fruits and veggies. Then he stopped eating desert. He has continued to eliminate whole food groups including all breads and pastas. His mother is not sure how much weight he has lost but says his clothes look very loose. Also his mother does not think he has eaten anything the last 5 days but an apple a day and he will only drink water. What would you do next? A. Get more history and do a targeted physical exam B. Ask for old growth charts C. Get a blind weight and orthostatic vital signs D. All of the above Answer D. All of the above Understand the Goal of Medical Evaluation Briefly rule out other disorders Evaluate the patient s medical, nutritional, and psychosocial status Determine severity of the condition Make plan of care Targeted Medical Evaluation Understand your differential diagnosis GI, Endocrine, Infectious, Substance Use or Psychiatric disorder Ask a comprehensive history Weight history, exercise history, purging history, past mental illness, suicidality Review old growth charts (if possible) Perform a targeted physical exam Look for common findings in eating disorders: lanugo, acrocyanosis, Russell sign Obtain weight and vital signs Blind weight, height, oral temperature, orthostatic vital signs Consider laboratory evaluation CMP, CBC, Magnesium, Phosphorous, TFTs, EKG, and HCG Remember normal labs do not rule out a serious eating disorder

Admit to CHOA Why admit? Follow the 2003 AAP Criteria for Hospitalization Some patients with weight loss will need medical admission for medical stabilization Some patients with purging will need medical admission for medical stabilization Minimize the risk of Refeeding Syndrome Patients who have lost significant weight and have greatly reduced intake are at risk for potentially fatal complications when they try to eat again These high risk patients must be medically monitored and supported in an inpatient setting How to admit CHOA Transfer Center Identify the patient as having a known or suspected Eating Disorder If possible, send to the Emergency Department at Scottish Rite Emergency Department Ask staff to use the Emergency Department Eating Disorder Guideline Patients will have labs, vital signs and EKG done admission to floor or ICU Inpatient Eating Disorder Team Staff will use the Inpatient Eating Disorder Guideline multidisciplinary team approach Patients will be monitored medically and treated for complications such as hypoglycemia, hepatitis, congestive heart failure and refeeding syndrome American Academy of Pediatrics Policy Statement, Committee on Adolescence, Identifying and Treating Eating Disorders, Pediatrics, January 2003, Vol 111, Issue 1.

5 What is Refeeding Syndrome? Refeeding syndrome is: A. A potentially lethal drop in phosphorous, magnesium and potassium in starving patients who start to take in glucose B. More likely in patients who are at very low weights, in patients who have lost a significant amount of weight, and in patients who have recently had very little intake C. More likely in patients who have diabetes and are also misusing their insulin D. All of the above Answer: D. All of the above The Risk of Refeeding Syndrome is Increased in Patients with: ONE of the following: BMI < 16 Weight loss of greater than 15% over the past 3 6 months Little or no nutritional intake for the past 10 or more days Low levels of phosphorous, magnesium or potassium before refeeding OR TWO of the following: BMI < 18.5 Weight loss of greater than 10% over the past 3 6 months Little or no nutritional intake for the past 5or more days History of abuse of alcohol or drugs including insulin or diuretics Refeeding Syndrome The source website is: eeding+syndrome&lang=4
6 Before they leave your office The patient s mother agrees to take him to the hospital but she wants to ask you a few questions before they go. She has read a lot about eating disorders and she is worried about his long term health. You tell her that: A. Almost all medical complications of anorexia nervosa improve with weight restoration B. Some of the medical complications such as bradycardia, hypoglycemia and refeeding syndrome can be lethal but can be managed in the hospital setting C. He will need his bone density checked by DEXA while he is in the hospital. Bone loss is the one medical complication that may not be fully reversible. D. All of the above Answer D. All of the above In Anorexia Nervosa The medical complications are the direct result of starvation and weight loss Most medical complications reverse with complete weight restoration Cardiac bradycardia, hypotension, congestive heart failure GI gastroparesis, constipation, abnormal liver function Endocrine euthyroid sick syndrome, amenorrhea, down regulation of HPG axis Hematologic leukopenia, anemia, thrombocytopenia One exception osteopenia and osteoporosis In Bulimia Nervosa The medical complications relate to the method and frequency of purging Most medical complications reverse with cessation of purging GI rebound constipation, esophagitis, sialoadenitis, Mallory Weiss tears Metabolic electrolyte imbalances Renal pseudo Bartter s syndrome One possible exception Barrett s esophagus/risk for esophageal cancer Goals of Medical Admission Manage medical complications Correct metabolic disturbances Prevent refeeding syndrome Evaluate psychiatric comorbidities Some patients may benefit from medication Some patients may have co morbid conditions that may also need treatment Initiate correction of malnourished state Start evaluation and treatment promote healthy eating and weight gain Important to have a multidisciplinary team approach Develop plan of care for after hospital discharge Assess and refer to adequate level of psychiatric care residential, PHP, IOP, outpatient Eating disorders are a psychiatric illness and need treatment from a multidisciplinary team with extensive eating disorder experience Ongoing medical follow up
7 What happens after medical admission? The patient that improves with admission or does not require admission Remain an active member of the team when the patient goes home Monitor weight, vital signs, menses Remember that restoration of health can take 2 3 years Expect set backs, especially with new stressors Encourage and require ongoing follow up Nutritionist, therapist and psychiatrist May need formal programming for enough support (PHP, IOP) The patient that does not improve sufficiently with medical admission Remain an active member of the team when the patient goes to residential treatment Ask for updates from the residential facility Support the family during the admission and on return home Expect set backs, especially with returning home Encourage and require ongoing follow up Nutritionist, therapist and psychiatrist Most will need formal programming for enough support (PHP, IOP) initially Remember Medically unstable patients must be hospitalized Refeeding syndrome can be deadly Most medical complications, except osteoporosis, resolve with weight restoration Patients with eating disorders can, and do, get better Thank you!
