MARTIN, Clarissa I.; DOVEY, Terence M. e ARCELUS, Jon. Feeding disorders of infancy or early chilhood: A review. Rev. Mex. de trastor. aliment [online]. 2012, vol.3, n.2, pp.89-98. ISSN 2007-1523.
Feeding disorders of infancy or early childhood are a common presenting problem at health clinics. However, they are often mistaken with eating disorders, such as Anorexia Nervosa or Bulimia Nervosa, in spite of remaining as different diagnostic categories in both the DSM-IV-TR and the ICD-10. Children's feeding disorders are also understudied in comparison with eating disorders. The lack of a clear definition of feeding disorders, the diversity in prevalence figures and the challenges in the classification of these disorders affects the identification of feeding disorders in the clinical practice. This article aims to review the available literature in order to contribute to a better understanding of feeding disorders of infancy or early childhood.
