REVISITING... THE MANAGEMENT OF ANOREXIA NERVOSA

Bob Palmer

Bob Palmer is a senior lecturer in psychiatry at University of Leicester Medical School (University of Leicester School of Medicine, Division of Psychiatry, Department of Health Sciences, Brandon Mental Health Unit, Leicester General Hospital, Gwendolen Road, Leicester LE5 4PW, UK. Tel.: 0116 225 6286; e-mail: rlp{at}leicester.ac.uk) and an honorary consultant psychiatrist with Leicestershire Partnership NHS Trust. He has published on the subject of eating disorders and is Editor of the European Eating Disorders Review.

Over the past decade there have been few advances and no real breakthroughs in the treatment and management of anorexia nervosa. There has perhaps been a consolidation of opinion and practice. A clinical guideline for eating disorders published under the auspices of the National Institute for Clinical Excellence (NICE) has summarised our present ideas of good practice as well as highlighting the lack of good evidence on which to base this.
