Purging Disorder (PD) – Key Points• Treatment settings: PD ≈ 3% at an inpatient facility (Dalle
Grave, Calugi 2007).• Vomiting associated with PD can cause tears in the
oesophagus & life-threatening haemorrhages.• 5 year follow up study (Koch et al.2014):• Mortality rate 2 x higher than BN and OSFED• Chronicity: PD > AN-BP• PD persists in 31% of patients & full remission observed in
21%.• Meta-Analysis of PD (Smith et al., 2017): AN --- PD ---BN

Is PD distinctive ? Taxometric studies Taxometric studies• BN spectrum disorder = distinct PD group, characterized by frequent purging behaviour and minor bingeing (e.g. Striegel-Moore et al., 2005; Mitchell et al., 2007).
BUT• Failed to distinguish women who purged & binged from women who purged without objectively large binge episodes (e.g. Wade et al., 2006).

Objectives • Characterize a large PD sample using a new
taxometric approach (cluster analyses).• 1.) Cluster analysis: indicators (vomits, laxative
use, diuretic use)• 2.) Validation analyses: ED symptomatology,
general psychopathology & personality• 3.) Compare clusters to DSM-5 severity index
for BN
-
• PD sample: n=223 ED Unit/Bellvitge University Hospital (Barcelona, Spain).
• Diagnosed through DSM IV-RT/5 (APA, 2004 & 2013)• Controls: n=822 from the community• No history of an ED or mental health disorder • Age: ED sample: M = 27.3 yrs (SD=9.7); HC: M= 22.52 yrs (SD-
5.65); p
-
Definition of PD !• Purging episodes (e.g., self-induced vomiting, laxative
and/or diuretic misuse) in the ABSENCE of objectively large binge-eating episodes to control their weight or shape
• Frequency: ONCE per week; past THREE months• BMI: >18.5

Summary of findings1.) A 3-cluster profile was the best fitting solution for our PD data• Cluster 1 (only vomiting), Cluster 2 (vomiting & laxative use) and
Cluster 3 (vomiting, laxative & diuretic use).2.) Only a few significant differences in the measures used (EDI-2, SCL-90-R and TCI-R) between Cluster 1 & Cluster 3• à Cluster 1 < Cluster 33.) Three PD clusters differed from the HC group, on ED and general psychopathology, but less so for personality.4.) Only some correspondence of the 3 clusters with the DSM-5 (APA, 2013) severity index for purging behaviour for BN
-
Clinical Implications• PD is a clinically significant disorder, for which patients seek
treatment. • Not clear what forms of treatment may be most beneficial for PD
patients.• CBT program reduces purging behaviours & improves ED related
symptomatology (Riesco et al., 2018 ).• Other treatments such as DBT and interpersonal treatment found to
be effective in BN, need to be tested in PD.• Clinicians should record useful interventions in changing symptoms
with a specific focus on the main symptoms that seem to differentiate across the 3 PD classes (e.g. BMI, drive for thinness, perfectionism & persistence).

Limitations !!!!
•Subjective Binge Eating ????•Loss of Control over Eating ???•à EDE can assess for this•Treatment response/cross-over ???
