Unique features of this diagnosis (e.g., sensory sensitivity contributing to involuntary emesis) suggest that established protocols that were developed for anorexia nervosa might be less effective for adolescents with ARFID. To inform improved inpatient medical stabilization and care for these patients, we first provide an overview of clinical characteristics for patients with ARFID who presented to a pediatric hospital for inpatient eating disorder care. We use these descriptives to outline the rationale for, and executions of, modifications to an inpatient protocol designed to flexibly meet the needs of this clinical population.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Chart review with descriptive statistics were conducted for patients who had received an ARFID diagnosis from March 2019 to March 2023 (\n                      <jats:italic>N<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u200932, aged 9\u201323).

On average, patients had deviated from their growth curve for just over two years and presented with mean 76% of their estimated body weight. Of those requiring nasogastric tube insertion during admission (\n                      <jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20098, 25%), average duration of tube placement was 15\u00a0days. From within this sample, case series data suggest that the adjusted protocol will continue to have a positive impact on care trajectory among adolescents admitted for ARFID including improved weight gain, reduction of emesis, and improved food intake.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Findings demonstrate the likely need to tailor established medical inpatient protocols for those with ARFID given different symptom presentation and maintenance factors compared to patients with anorexia nervosa.
