Neurofeedback Training to Enhance Learning and Memory in Patients with Cognitive Impairment
The brain tumours can make cognitive impairment especially when they involve the limbic system, the frontal or temporal lobes. The aim of the present study was to examine neurofeedback training (NFT) to enhance learning and memory in patients with cognitive impairment. Single case pre- and post-intervention study was adopted. The qEEG WISC-IV and CBCL test was compared pre and post NFT. Patient was given 40 sessions of NFT, 45 min / day, 3 days a week. The training incorporated video feedback to increase the frequency of Beta waves (15-18 Hz) and to decrease theta waves (3-7 Hz) in T3 and F3. Also, SMR training was performed in Cz to decrease the seizure attacks. qEEG showed prominent different in the brain activity. Results indicated decrease in theta and increase in Beta waves. The present study puts forward that NFT should be taken into account to plan for rehabilitation of patients with cognitive impairment for enhancement of performance in the school or university.

This case study showed the effect of neurofeedback (NFB) training in a patient with a brain tumor and co-existing traumatic brain injury. The patient received 40 sessions of NFB intervention. Tests and videotaped recordings evaluated pre- and post-NFB intervention. This study demonstrated minimal to significant improvements in several functional tasks. The conclusion is that the use of NFB for a person with a head injury and brain tumor can be generalized to be used with stroke survivors.
