The COVID‐19 global health crisis compelled behavior analysts to consider alternatives to face‐to‐face services to treat children with feeding disorders. Research suggests telehealth is one method behavior analysts could use to initiate or continue assessment of and treatment for feeding disorders. In the current paper, we conducted pilot studies in which we analyzed chart records of patients with Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder; who graduated from an intensive, day‐treatment program; and transitioned to an outpatient follow‐up program. In Experiment 1, we analyzed the data of participants who received follow‐up both in‐clinic and via telehealth. In Experiment 2, we analyzed goal attainment for participants who received outpatient follow‐up either in‐clinic exclusively or via telehealth exclusively. Results of both studies showed that outcomes were equivalent along most dimensions for in‐clinic and telehealth services. We provide recommendations for telehealth feeding services and discuss other considerations relevant to telehealth service delivery.

使用远程医疗为患有避免性/限制性食物摄入障碍的儿童提供门诊随访

COVID-19全球健康危机迫使行为分析者考虑使用面对面服务的替代方案来治疗喂养障碍的儿童。研究表明远程医疗是行为分析师可以用来启动或继续评估和治疗进食障碍的一种方法。在当前的论文中，我们进行了试点研究，其中分析了避免/限制性食物摄入障碍患者的图表记录。从密集的日间护理课程毕业的人；并转为门诊随访计划。在实验1中，我们分析了在诊所和通过远程医疗接受随访的参与者的数据。在实验2中，我们分析了仅在诊所或通过远程医疗接受门诊随访的参与者的目标达成情况。两项研究的结果均表明，就诊和远程医疗服务而言，在大多数方面的结果均相同。我们提供有关远程医疗喂养服务的建议，并讨论与远程医疗服务提供有关的其他注意事项。
