The problem
Intervention: Nasogastric tube feeding for nutritional support during hospitalization
Who it was tested with: 53 inpatients with anorexia nervosa (53 female, mean age 15.1±2.0 years).
Experience from people who deliver programmes: stories, case studies and lessons learned. Valuable for understanding how and why, and for spotting what to test next, but not a measure of effect.
"Retrospective study assessing young inpatients with AN, treated with NGT. Considered outcomes (admission vs discharge) were AN-specific psychopathology..."; The study measured the same group before and after nasogastric tube feeding treatment without a comparison group.
Retrospective design without a comparison group; small sample size (n=53); single setting; no long-term follow-up data; unable to determine whether improvements were due to nasogastric feeding specifically or overall hospitalization
