What this trial studies
This study aims to identify and validate specific screening tools for detecting eating disorders in pregnant women. It will utilize the SCOFF-F and EDE-Q questionnaires to differentiate between normal dietary concerns related to pregnancy and symptoms indicative of eating disorders. By comparing responses from pregnant women diagnosed with eating disorders to those without, the study seeks to enhance early detection and treatment of these conditions during pregnancy.
Who should consider this trial
Good fit: Ideal candidates for this study are adult pregnant women, either diagnosed with eating disorders or without such a diagnosis, who are fluent in French.
Not a fit: Patients who are underage, do not speak French, or have a history of past eating disorders may not benefit from this study.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could lead to improved screening and treatment for eating disorders in pregnant women, enhancing maternal and fetal health.
How similar studies have performed: While there are existing screening tools for eating disorders, this study is novel in its specific focus on pregnant women and the validation of these tools in this unique population.
