To review and explore the eating disorder admissions to an in-patient child and adolescent mental health hospital which had restarted taking such presentations. This was done by conducting three audits using RiO (an electronic patient records system) and including all young people with eating disorders or related difficulties admitted between 1 February 2019 and 30 June 2023. As part of this, relevant practice standards were identified using the baseline assessment tool in UK national guidelines.
The audits identified 46 completed admissions, detailing demographic information, nasogastric and restraint feeding, therapeutic interventions and medication, admission and discharge routes, length of admission and more.
The review highlighted the apparent overall success of a general admission unit in treating eating disorders and related difficulties and identified key areas of importance and development in terms of clinical practice.
回顾并探究一家重新开始接收此类病例的儿童及青少年住院精神科医院中饮食失调患者的收治情况。通过使用RiO（一个电子病历系统）进行三次审计来完成此项工作，纳入了2019年2月1日至2023年6月30日期间收治的所有患有饮食失调或相关问题的年轻人。作为其中一部分，使用英国国家指南中的基线评估工具确定了相关的实践标准。
审计确定了46例完整的收治病例，详细列出了人口统计学信息、鼻饲和强制喂食情况、治疗干预措施和用药情况、入院和出院途径、住院时长等。
该综述突出了一个普通住院科室在治疗饮食失调及相关问题方面明显的总体成效，并确定了临床实践中重要和有待发展的关键领域。
