Feeding Tube Dependency is a constant increasing perinatal mental health condition, with estimated 350 new cases per year in Germany.The early onset feeding tube dependency is the consequence of a generalized food aversion. To establish an evidence-based nationwide treatment plan, relevant research from the past twenty years were narratively reviewed. Feeding tube dependency is an international increasingmental health condition, with a high symptom persistence and a low spontaneous remission. The generalized food aversion would prevent the transition to oral feeding.The treatment protocols, supported by the German Health System, based on low-frequency individual treatment and intensive inpatient treatments are not supported by the most recent evidence. In treatment outcome research more promising and effective programs can be distinguished from ineffective programs. As a result, treatment which are designed as intensive treatment, home-based or inpatient and are psychodynamicbased are most effective. Day-clinic and behavioral modification programs are not or low in treatment effectiveness.The German Health System approach to assist families with feeding tube dependency is not evidence-based. A new structure of treatment is imperatively required.
