BACKGROUND: Patients with anorexia nervosa (AN) are vulnerable to physiological decompensation and often require inpatient management by an eating disorders unit.
AIMS: Patients admitted to an Australian tertiary medical centre for medical stabilisation of AN were assessed as part of quality assurance. Analysis included: (i) medical complications during acute inpatient stabilisation; (ii) predictors of refeeding syndrome; (iii) predictors governing length of stay (LOS); and (iv) outcomes pre- and post-implementation of multidisciplinary treatment guidelines.
METHODS: A retrosepctive analysis of 95 consecutive admissions (60 individual patients) between November 2011 and August 2017 was performed.
RESULTS: Patients had a median LOS of 9.6 days (interquartile range 5.8-19.7) and a mean weight gain of 1.4 kg (standard deviation 2.9). Medical complications included the following: hypoglycaemia (11.6%) and refeeding electrolyte derangement (26.3%). Advancing age (odds ratio (OR) 1.06 per year, P = 0.019), nasogastric tube requirement (OR 3.4, P = 0.014) and Code Grey(s) (security calls) (OR 7.1, P = 0.010) were associated with refeeding electrolyte derangement. Parameters associated with increased LOS included the following: lower body mass index (P = 0.029), Code Grey(s) (P = 0.029) and tachycardia (P = 0.013). Following multivariate analysis, the post-guidelines implementation group required less intravenous fluid and electrolyte replacement, though had lower rates of refeeding electrolyte derangement (OR 0.33 (0.11-0.99)).
CONCLUSION: Patients with moderate to severe AN are at risk of dangerous medical complications, and older patients may have heightened predisposition to refeeding electrolyte derangement. Early identification of medically high-risk patients is imperative to implement timely, life-saving interventions.
