Biofeedback for Post-stroke Gait Retraining: A Review of Current Evidence and Future Research Directions in the Context of Emerging Technologies

Frontiers in Neurology, 2021
Real-time gait biofeedback is a promising rehabilitation strategy for improving biomechanical deficits in walking patterns of post-stroke individuals. Because wearable sensor technologies are creating avenues for novel applications of gait biofeedback ...

Recent developments in biofeedback for neuromotor rehabilitation

Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2006
The original use of biofeedback to train single muscle activity in static positions or movement unrelated to function did not correlate well to motor function improvements in patients with central nervous system injuries.

Reducing the Soleus Stretch Reflex With Conditioning: Exploring Game- and Impedance-Based Biofeedback

Frontiers in Rehabilitation Sciences, 2021
People with spasticity, i.e., stretch hyperreflexia, have a limited functional independence and mobility. While a broad range of spasticity treatments is available, many treatments are invasive, non-specific, or temporary and might have negative side ...

Electrodermal Activity Biofeedback Alters Evolving Functional Brain Networks in People With Epilepsy, but in a Non-specific Manner

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2022
There is evidence that biofeedback of electrodermal activity (EDA) can reduce seizure frequency in people with epilepsy. Prior studies have linked EDA biofeedback to a diffuse brain activation as a potential functional mechanism.

Immediate effects of electrical stimulation on serratus anterior muscle activity in people with hemiplegia post-stroke

European Journal of Translational Myology
Upper limb impairment occurs in approximately 80% of stroke survivors, with altered scapular kinematics playing a key role in dysfunction. Serratus anterior weakness post-stroke contributes to abnormal scapular motion, limiting shoulder and arm function.

Trends, Demographic Characteristics and Seasonal Patterns of Rectal Prolapse Surgery in Japan: A Nationwide Claims‐Based Analysis From 2014 to 2023

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This study analyzed nationwide trends, demographic characteristics, and seasonal patterns of rectal prolapse surgery in Japan using healthcare claims data. From 2014 to 2023, age‐adjusted overall and conventional surgeries declined significantly, whereas laparoscopic surgeries increased significantly.

Effects of heart rate variability biofeedback during exposure to fear-provoking stimuli within spider-fearful individuals: study protocol for a randomized controlled trial

Trials, 2018
Background Specific phobias are among the most common anxiety disorders. Exposure therapy is the treatment of choice for specific phobias. However, not all patients respond equally well to it.

Treatment With the Shaker Head‐Lift Exercise in Head and Neck Cancer Patients With Radiation‐Induced Dysphagia: 12‐Month Results on Swallowing Function From a Randomized, Controlled Trial

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Dysphagia is a common side‐effect after radiotherapy in head and neck cancer patients. This randomized study aimed to evaluate the effect of the shaker head‐lift exercise (HLE) after 12 months with flexible endoscopic evaluation of swallowing (FEES). Methods Patients were randomly assigned to the intervention (n = 30) or the control
