Özet

Anorexia Nervosa (AN) is an eating disorder that causes physical, behavioural and psychological deterioration. Although diagnostic criteria are clearly defined, there has been no consensus on what recovery is. This study aimed to review prior studies indicating recovery criteria, as well as recovery rates of patients with adolescent-onset AN. Related studies were searched through databases MEDLINE, PsycINFO and CINAHL. A total of 15 English studies with patients had adolescent-onset and DSM-5/ICD-11 diagnoses. A systematic review was conducted by following the PRISMA expanded checklist and qualities of eligible articles were evaluated via the Quality Criteria Checklist (QCC).Of the 15 studies, two studies mentioned only physical dimension of recovery, whereas rest of the 13 studies covered behavioural and psychological dimensions. EDE-Q was found as the most frequently used scale. Follow-up years of the patients fluctuated from one to 30 years, and the recovery rate varied from 30.6% to 72%. There are some difficulties faced in defining recovered patients. Since no consensus was achieved, every researcher set their recovery criteria. Until the policymakers of field standardize definition of recovery from AN, researchers should be aware of the fact that inconsistencies in definition can affect results of their research
