BACKGROUND
The complex interaction of human, vehicle and environmental factors along with a lack of sustainable preventive programs has contributed to the "silent epidemic" of traumatic brain injuries (TBI). TBI poses a grave threat to the quality-of-life (QOL).
AIM
The aim of the present study was to examine the effects of neurofeedback in QOL in patients with TBI.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Pre- and post-interventional study design was adopted. Sixty patients, 30 in the intervention group (IG) and 30 in waitlist group with the diagnosis of TBI in the age range of 18-49 years were assessed on QOL scale, after obtaining the informed consent. Patients in the IG were given 20 sessions of alpha-theta neurofeedback training (NFT), 5 sessions / week.
STATISTICS ANALYSIS
Descriptive statistics, Spearman's correlation, Mann-Whitney and Chi-squared test was used.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION
Patients in the IG showed statistical improvements in QOL post post-neurofeedback. Results are encouraging for the incorporation of NFT into treatment programs for patients with TBI in improving QOL.
背景
人类、车辆和环境因素的复杂相互作用，以及缺乏可持续的预防计划，导致了创伤性脑损伤（TBI）的“无声流行”。TBI对生活质量（QOL）构成严重威胁。
目的
本研究的目的是探讨神经反馈对TBI患者生活质量的影响。
材料与方法
采用干预前后研究设计。在获得知情同意后，对60名年龄在18至49岁之间、诊断为TBI的患者进行了生活质量量表评估，其中干预组（IG）30名，候补名单组30名。IG组患者接受了20次α-θ神经反馈训练（NFT），每周5次。
统计分析
采用描述性统计、Spearman相关性分析、Mann-Whitney检验和卡方检验。
结果与结论
IG组患者在神经反馈后生活质量有统计学上的改善。将NFT纳入TBI患者治疗方案以改善生活质量的结果令人鼓舞。
