How to Treat Patients with ARFID via Telehealth

Emerging evidence base for CBT-AR

And then I wanted to just mention that there is an emerging evidence base for CBT for ARFID. So in terms of the current evidence, we do have a number of case reports that we've published that show how the treatment has been helpful for patients with various different characteristics. And we also have two open trials, meaning that there was no control group but we did provide the treatment and then look at the outcomes. We have one for children and adolescents and then another for adults, and the outcomes were good for both. In the child trial, about 70% of the patients had a great response where they no longer met criteria for ARFID. And in the adult trial, it was about half. And so both studies really supported the feasibility, acceptability and the proof of concept of CBT-AR across the lifespan.
