Study Summary
Many children with feeding disorders frequently gag, vomit, spit out their food, and/or hold food in their cheeks. These behaviors make it difficult for children to eat enough food to grow. The purpose of this study is to evaluate if a specific behavioral feeding intervention called desensitization is an effective intervention to improve oral intake in children with feeding disorders by decreasing gagging, vomiting, spitting, and holding food in the cheeks. The study will enroll eligible children (6) and their caretakers (6) in the study and they will receive behavioral feeding treatment. All treatment sessions will be videotaped and the study will last a maximum 8 weeks after the first treatment visit, or until treatment goals have been met.
Primary Outcome
Participants will be observed for gags to evaluate the effectiveness of Desensitization
Interventions
- BEHAVIORAL Desensitization with flipped spoon
