Nonlinear analysis in treatment of intractable epilepsy with EEG biofeedback

Zhao, Longlian, Liang, Zuoqing, Hu, Guangshu, Wu, Wenqing (2005)

About 25% epilepsy patients are suffering from medically intractable epileptic seizure. Many studies have shown that electroencephalogram (EEG) biofeedback therapy has the exciting potential for seizure control. In this paper, five patients with intractable epilepsy were trained to increase the production of sensorimotor (12 15 Hz) activity and decrease the production of slow theta (4 7 Hz) activity. Nonlinear analysis are proposed to evaluate the effect of biofeedback training. In all the five patients, the complexity and approximate entropy of EEG increased significantly (P<0.05) after (about 1-month) the biofeedback treatment

EEG sensorimotor rhythm biofeedback training: some effects on the neurologic precursors of learning disabilities

Tansey, Michael A. (1984) · International Journal of Psychophysiology

This study presents a clinical treatment regime for pathological interhemispheric dysfunction with respect to a population of learning disabled boys. The results obtained replicate and extend earlier findings with respect to operantly conditioned increases in amplitude of sensorimotor transactions and its positive effect on learning disability. Specifically, the biofeedback, and subsequent conditioning, of increased 14 Hz neural discharge patterns (sensorimotor rhythm - SMR) over the central Rolandic cortex, appeared to increase bilateral sensorimotor transactions resulting in substantive reduction/remediation in the learning disabilities of the recipients of such EEG biofeedback training.
