Clinical Trial Summary

Body distortions are responsible for anorexic behavior reinforcing loops. It is necessary to target this behavior and develop appropriate therapies taking into account the perceptual (implicit) and conceptual (explicit) phenomenon of body representations. The main originality of the proposed program consists on combining virtual visual impulses and multisensory recalibration (touch, proprioception, vestibular sensations) in order to compare the body distortions evolution in anorexic patients with or without a multimodal care program including Virtual Reality from its own body scan, coupled or not to a multisensory remediation.

Clinical Trial Description

Rapid weight loss associated with mental anorexia leads to dysmorphophobia and body distortions. Patients perceive themselves to be bigger than they really are. Body distortions are responsible for anorexic behavior reinforcing loops. It is then necessary to target this behavior and develop appropriate therapies taking into account the perceptual (implicit) and conceptual (explicit) phenomenon of body representations. The current treatment programs which are recommended by the Haute Autorité de Santé (HAS) in France focus on the somatic, nutritional, individual and family psychological aspects. These recommendations hardly mention the bodily distortion phenomenon which frequently leads patients to relapse into the disease. The 3D body scanner enables to get awareness of the body through visual feedback allowing the patient to get a reassuring overview of her weight development. This projects aims to combine virtual visual impulses and multisensory recalibration (touch, proprioception, vestibular sensations) in order to compare the body distortions evolution in anorexic patients with or without a multimodal care program including Virtual Reality from its own body scan coupled or not to a multisensory remediation. ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
