The necessity to employ distance-based methods to deliver on-going eating disorder care due to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic represents a dramatic and urgent shift in treatment delivery. Yet, TeleHealth treatments for eating disorders in youth have not been adequately researched or rigorously tested. Based on clinical experience within our clinic and research programs, we aim to highlight the common challenges clinicians may encounter in providing family-based treatment (FBT) via TeleHealth for children and adolescents with anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa. We also discuss possible solutions and offer practical considerations for providers delivering FBT in this format. Additional research in TeleHealth treatment for eating disorders in youth may lead to improved access, efficiency, and effectiveness of FBT delivered via videoconferencing.
由于新型冠状病毒（COVID-19）大流行，有必要采用基于距离的方法来提供持续的饮食失调护理，这代表着治疗方式的急剧和紧急转变。然而，青少年饮食障碍的远程医疗治疗还没有得到充分的研究或严格的测试。基于我们诊所和研究项目的临床经验，我们旨在强调临床医生在通过远程医疗为患有神经性厌食症和神经性贪食症的儿童和青少年提供家庭为基础的治疗（FBT）时可能遇到的常见挑战。我们还讨论了可能的解决方案，并为以这种形式提供 FBT 的提供者提供了实际考虑。针对青少年饮食障碍的远程医疗治疗的进一步研究可能会提高通过视频会议提供的 FBT 的可及性、效率和效果。
