Eating Disorders in Adolescents: Recognition and Diagnosis (Recording)

Internet Enduring Material sponsored by Stanford University School of Medicine. Presented by Lucile Packard Children’s Hospital.

Eating disorders are serious, potentially life-threatening illnesses afflicting individuals through the life span, with a particular impact on both the physical and psychological health of children and adolescents. Because care for children and adolescents with eating disorders is complex and resources for the treatment of eating disorders are often limited, pediatricians may be called on to diagnose and manage eating disorders in the primary care setting. This webinar focuses on a review of common eating disorders diagnosed in adolescents, outlines the medical evaluation of patients suspected of having an eating disorder and presents an overview of management.
