Abstract
Objective: We developed ECHOMANTRA, a digital guided intervention for patients with anorexia nervosa and their carers to provide support during transition from inpatient care to community settings. This study reports on participants' engagement with, and feedback of, ECHOMANTRA.
Method: Patients and carers (N = 184 dyads) were given access to ECHOMANTRA for 12 months. The intervention included online groups, a workbook and recovery-oriented videoclips. Satisfactory engagement was defined as attendance of a minimum of four online groups by each dyad. Participants received an Intervention Feedback Form to measure frequency of use and provide feedback of the intervention. Those who did not meet the engagement criterion were asked to complete an Obstacles to Engagement Form.
Results: 19% of the sample reached the engagement criterion. Seventy-six patients and 60 carers completed the Intervention Feedback Form. Of those, approximately 60% reported using at least a quarter of the workbook and videoclips. Overall, participants found the materials useful and easy to access (median = 3 on a scale 1-5). Obstacles to engagement (35 patients and 14 carers) included lack of time due to caring responsibilities, treatment, work/school commitments.
Conclusion: A more personalised form of support may be needed to enhance motivation and ability to change following inpatient care.
