Plain English summary The use of virtual care to treat adolescents and young adults with eating disorders has increased in recent years. To better understand what types of technologies are being used in virtual care and these technologies’ effectiveness, we systematically reviewed research studies that discussed the use of any technology to treat youth (which was defined as young people aged 25 years or under) with an eating disorder. We found 49 relevant studies. They revealed that videoconference therapy, mobile applications, and online self-help are most frequently used for virtual treatment. Of the 18 studies evaluating the effectiveness of these technologies, 15 found virtual care to be effective for reducing eating disorder symptoms. Studies describing patient experiences with these technologies, of which there were nine, suggested that patients overall were satisfied with receiving virtual care. Although these results are promising, research on virtual treatment is still lacking, especially on videoconferencing therapy and mobile applications. |
