Acceptability of using a nasogastric refeeding protocol with adult patients with medically unstable eating disorders.

Nasogastric feeding is becoming commonly used to support patients with medically compromised eating disorders. Previous research has demonstrated the safety of this approach, however there is limited evidence as to how adult patients and staff perceive this feeding method. This study aimed to describe the acceptability of a nasogastric refeeding protocol with adult patients with medically unstable eating disorders and the staff involved in their treatment.
