Using Continuous Glucose Monitoring to Detect and Intervene on Maintenance Factors for Trans-diagnostic Binge Eating Pathology
Completed · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Bulimia Nervosa, Binge Eating
In brief
The current study will be one of the first to develop and test a passive data collection technique to detect both meal consumption and disordered eating symptoms in patients with clinically significant binge eating and the first just-in-time adaptive interventions (JITAIs) systems using passive sensing technology for eating pathology to be empirically evaluated. A small iterative open clinical trial using an ABAB design (A= SenseSupport Off, B=SenseSupport On) will be conducted to test the feasibility, acceptability, and target engagement of SenseSupport when paired with a 12 week in-person CBT treatment program. The hypothesis that larger decreases in dietary restriction will be observed during SenseSupport On phases compared to SenseSupport Off phases will be tested in this clinical trial.
