Prognostic Value of Early Therapeutic Alliance in Weight Recovery: A Prospective Cohort of 108 Adolescents With Anorexia Nervosa
چکیده انگلیسی

PurposeTo determine whether patients' perception of early therapeutic alliance (TA) could predict time to achieve a target weight among adolescents undergoing treatment for anorexia nervosa.MethodTA was assessed in a prospective cohort recruited from both inpatient and outpatient settings by self-administered and validated questionnaires. Kaplan–Meier survival curves were compared by log rank test, and Cox regression was used to test whether patients' perception of early TA predicted time to achieve a target weight.ResultsIn total, 108 patients were included, and 79.6% achieved a target weight. Better patient perception of early TA increased the hazard ratio (HR) of achieving a target weight (HR = 2.7, 95% confidence interval: 1.7–4.4, p < .001) such as being in the inpatient setting by 6.7. Being very severely underweight at admission decreased the HR of achieving the target weight.ConclusionPatients' perception of early TA is a good predictor of achieving a target weight. Because TA is a modifiable construct, it could be a target for intervention.
