The UKBB offers interdisciplinary therapy concepts for children with feeding and defecation disorders. Close cooperation between different specialist areas enables individually tailored, holistic treatment.
The inpatient treatment of functional faecal disorders at UKBB is carried out on an interdisciplinary basis in collaboration with the Paediatrics, Child psychiatry and care and, if necessary, other disciplines (Nutritional counselling, Speech therapy, Physiotherapy,
Occupational therapy, Music therapy). All disciplines play a key role in the therapeutic process and are in constant dialogue. The treatment usually lasts about 3 weeks.
Treatment is divided into an outpatient diagnostic phase and a treatment phase. Following the diagnostic phase, the family is triaged. In general, outpatient treatment should be prioritised over inpatient treatment. If outpatient treatment is not sufficient or not possible, inpatient treatment will take place on ward A of the UKBB. The duration of inpatient treatment for feeding disorders is at least 6 nights.
