Study Summary
With an incidence rate of about 1%, Anorexia Nervosa (AN) is a serious mental disorder associated with high mortality, morbidity, and cost. AN in youth is more responsive to early treatment but becomes highly resistant once it has taken an enduring course. The first-line treatment for adolescents with AN is Family Based Treatment (FBT). While FBT can be delivered using videoconferencing (FBT-V), therapists' limited availability hampers scalability. Guided self-help (GSH) versions of efficacious treatments have been used to scale and increase access to care. The main aim of this proposed comparative effectiveness study is to confirm that clinical improvements in GSH-FBT are achieved with greater efficiency than FBT-V in generalizable clinical settings.
Primary Outcome
The investigators will compare GSH-FBT and FBT-V groups at EOT in terms of the change in %EBW from baseline divided by total therapist time utilized. Estimated Body Weight (EBW) percentages used will be calculated using Center for Disease Control metrics in children and adolescents. Total therapist time utilized will be collected based on video records of actual sessions spent with participants.
