Résumé
Inpatient treatment for patients with anorexia nervosa (AN) is recommended in extreme or severe cases after failure of outpatient treatment and is highly effective. However, a number of patients show symptom increase and relapse after discharge. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of a therapist-guided smartphone-based aftercare intervention for inpatients with AN to support symptom stabilization. A total of 186 female patients with a DSM-5 diagnosis of AN (307.1) will be randomized either to receive a 16-week smartphone-based aftercare intervention with therapist feedback as add-on to treatment as usual (TAU) or TAU alone. Data will be assessed at discharge (= baseline, T0), after 16 weeks (= end of the aftercare intervention, T1) and after 10 months (= 6-month follow-up, T2). Primary outcome will be overall eating disorder symptomatology (Eating Disorder Examination Global score). Secondary outcome measures will include body mass index, depression, motivation to change, self-efficacy, patient satisfaction with and adherence to the smartphone-based aftercare intervention as well as rehospitalization rate. This study will be the first randomized controlled trial to examine a therapist-guided smartphone-based aftercare intervention for inpatients with AN. Results may reveal whether and to which extent this novel intervention can support symptom stabilization after inpatient treatment.
