Lecture 5--- 10/26--2nd set ED Flashcards
Mortality Rate
Higher than any other mental illness
—Mortality rate associated with anorexia— 12x hgiher
Complications of Anorexia
Bradycardia—heart rate slows, systems shut off
Osthrostasis– drop in BP or pulse with standing
Hyothermia
Osteoporosis– lack of Ca2++
Big study to info about anorexia
self starvation with healthy young men
the body starts to misfire
brain starts thinking it is healthy and normal
Bulimia Nervosa
Mouth sores and dental erosion– dentist furst to diagnose
binge eating
same complications as obesity
weight related hypertesnision, obesity, diabetes, abnormal lipid profile
Cycle of ED
o Obsessive thinking and compulsive food rituals
reduced stomach sitze and early satiety
muscle loss leads to stomach protrusion
bloating and fluid retention secondary to maturation
fears of fatness reinforced
body image distortion worsens
increased fixation on refusing food and weight loss
How are ED treated?
Multidisciplinary Approach
Medical– heart function, bone health
psychiatric–treatment of co-exiting mood disorders
nutritional– weight restoration, normalization of eating habits, improve body image
psycho therapeutic– family therapy, acceptance commitment therapy, motivational interviewing
Levels of Care and description
Inpatient Hospitalization–medically unstable, ~24 hours
COST!
EXPENSIVE! CAN BE OVER 100k
under covered by insurance
nutritional treatment goals
a. Weight restoration
b. Elimination or redxn of symptom use
i. Coping skills
c. Normalization of eating behavior
i. Food rituals
ii. Fear foods
iii. Establishing hunger and fullness cues
iv. Food/mood
d. Improving body image/body acceptance
e. Promoting healthy physical activity when appropriate
f. Independent meal planning

Re-FEEDING SNYDROME!! GONNA BE ON EXAM!
What is it?
**Rapid reduction of already depleted electolytes (k, Mg, Phos) –reduction in glucose an thiamin
• They rush in to try to deal with the nutrients available
o KEY POINT!**Basically, when body is in starved states and we are in depleted state of K(potassium),Mg, Phos,****
o When we get surge of calories, protein and fats.. Body wants to store, but the electrolytes rapidly decrease
o Cardiac arrhythmias occurs and possible death
o Heart failure due to electrolyte and fluid shifts from blood to the cells that strain the heart
o Risk of giving people in starved state too much food.
o Metabolism switchs from catabolic to anabolic state
o Metabolic changes with starvation—body working to maintain survival
Conservation of protein—use of ketone bodies
Depletion of intracellular minerals to maintain serum levels
Suppressed insulin increased glucagon
Reduced heart mass
o Metabolic changes with refeeding
Insulin secretion in response to increased in blood sugar
Prevention of Re Feeding Snydrome
Replenish Electrolytes— K, Mg, Phos
Start low, and advance slow!
Be careful with carbs
once metabolic rate increases 2/5-5k diets per day
COVERED VITAMINS–on next set
