摘要: 目的 探讨孤独症谱系障碍(autism spectrum disorder,ASD)儿童的饮食行为问题,为建立ASD的生活自理能力训练方法提供研究基础。方法 实验组为2013年07月-2014年06月于本科就诊的ASD患儿53例,对照组为正常儿童50例,分别对两组儿童的主要照顾者进行饮食行为问题及一般信息调查。结果 实验组在进食能力、进食行为、食物选择和喂养行为四个维度不良饮食行为的发生率均高于对照组。实验组咀嚼有困难占32例( 60%);不会自己吃饭,需要喂饭的有30例(57%);拒绝一切食物的发生率为8例(15%);而对照组在这三个条目的发生率均为0例(0%)。此外,实验组不能在餐桌进餐、吃饭时间超过30 min、需要特定的餐桌/餐具摆放,或需要特定的餐具、不愿尝试新食物等条目的发生率也明显高于对照组。结论 饮食行为问题在ASD儿童中普遍存在,且种类多,程度重。因此,饮食行为问题是ASD儿童生活自理能力训练的重要项目之一。
