Résumé : | Objectives : The recommended treatment for Eating Disorders (EDs) is multidisciplinary and multimodal. Nonetheless, the complex linkage of the different disciplines involved is not necessarily simple. We analyzed the experience of healthcare professionals faced with psychiatric and psychological symptoms in adolescents with EDs in two “multidisciplinary” inpatient units embedded predominantly in different paradigms — one pediatric and one psychiatric. Methods : Qualitative analysis of 20 healthcare staff members' interviews from different professional backgrounds working in inpatient units for EDs in Montreal (Canada) and Paris (France). Results : The 'Complex patients' theme discusses the need for a global approach to the multiplicity of symptoms presented by these patients. 'Management and its limits' describes the daily management of psychiatric symptoms in both units. 'Psychiatry and Adolescent medicine: from opposition to collaboration' describes the different levels at which these disciplines work together and how this cooperation may be evolving. Conclusions : The complex entanglement intrinsic in EDs of the patients' somatic, psychosocial, psychiatric, and adolescent problems requires collaboration between disciplines, but the modalities of this collaboration are multiple and evolve non-linearly in specialized treatment units. A multilevel approach must be offered, with the degree of collaboration (multidisciplinary, interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary) appropriate to the complexity of each adolescent's issues.
