Abstract

Despite vast improvements in the assessment and management of young people with anorexia nervosa (AN) and atypical anorexia nervosa (AAN) over the past decade, empirical evidence is still lacking on the assessment of physical risk and need for medial admission in this group. Evaluation of UK national guidance for eating disorders (the MEED) is necessary for further defining characteristics of young people at highest risk of medical admission and medical instability.
