BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: Evidence suggests that children and adolescents with avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID) have heterogeneous clinical presentations. To use latent class analysis (LCA) and determine the frequency of various classes in pediatric patients with ARFID drawn from a 2-year surveillance study. METHODS: Cases were ascertained using the Canadian Pediatric Surveillance Program methodology from January 1, 2016, to December 31, 2017. An exploratory LCA was undertaken with latent class models ranging from 1 to 5 classes. RESULTS: Based on fit statistics and class interpretability, a 3-class model had the best fit: Acute Medical (AM), Lack of Appetite (LOA), and Sensory (S). The probability of being classified as AM, LOA, and S was 52%, 40.7%, and 6.9%, respectively. The AM class was distinct for increased likelihood of weight loss (92%), a shorter length of illness (<12 months) (66%), medical hospitalization (56%), and heart rate <60 beats per minute (31%). The LOA class was distinct for failure to gain weight (97%) and faltering growth (68%). The S class was distinct for avoiding certain foods (100%) and refusing to eat because of sensory characteristics of the food (100%). Using posterior probability assignments, a mixed group AM/LOA (n = 30; 14.5%) had characteristics of both AM and LOA classes. CONCLUSIONS: This LCA suggests that ARFID is a heterogeneous diagnosis with 3 distinct classes corresponding to the 3 subtypes described in the literature: AM, LOA, and S. The AM/LOA group had a mixed clinical presentation. Clinicians need to be aware of these different ARFID presentations because clinical and treatment needs will vary.
