Abstract | :
Anorexia nervosa (AN) is a mental disorder potentially leading to severe malnutrition and life-threatening complications, with high mortality rates and dropouts from treatment. In the most severe cases, treatment refusal associated with acute nutritional disorders may require compulsory admission in specialised units. The aim of this study was to investigate clinical and nutritional parameters associated with the use of compulsory treatment for severely ill AN patients requiring intensive nutritional care. |
