Biofeedback, self-control, and self-management.

Biofeedback Self Regul

Published: June 1977

A common goal of biofeedback is self-control of physiologic responses. The conceptions and paradigms of the literature on self-control of motoric and cognitive responses were surveyed to provide a basis for the self-control of physiologic responses. An operational definition of self-control was advanced, and self-control was placed in the framework of a general self-management strategy which included discrimination and maintenance components.

Background: This study investigates the therapeutic efficacy of dynamic neuromuscular stabilization (DNS) technology paired with Kinesio Taping in patients with persistent nonspecific low back pain, as well as the effect on neuromuscular function and pain self-efficacy.

Methods: A randomized controlled clinical study was conducted to collect clinical data on DNS combined with KT for the treatment of chronic nonspecific low back pain from November 2023 to April 2024. The inclusion criteria were patients with chronic nonspecific lower back pain, aged between 18 and 30 years old, and without serious underlying medical conditions, such as cardiac disease, hypertension, and diabetes.

Lightly touching a solid object reduces postural sway. Here, we determine the effect of artificially modifying haptic feedback for balance. Participants stood with their eyes closed, lightly gripping a manipulandum that moved synchronously with body sway to systematically enhance or attenuate feedback gain between +2 and -2, corresponding to motion in the same or opposite direction to the body, respectively.

Background: Digital and wearable intervention systems promise to improve how people manage their behavioral health conditions by making interventions available when the user can best benefit from them. However, existing interventions are obtrusive because they require attention and motivation to engage in, limiting the effectiveness of such systems in demanding contexts, such as when the user experiences alcohol craving. Mindless interventions, developed by the human-computer interaction community, offer an opportunity to intervene unobtrusively.

Movement Pattern Biofeedback Training After Total Knee Arthroplasty: A Randomized Controlled Trial.

Arthritis Care Res (Hoboken)

December 2024

University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus and Eastern Colorado VA Health Care System, Geriatric Research Education and Clinical Center (GRECC), Aurora, Colorado.

Objective: Habitual movement compensations, such as decreased surgical peak knee extension moments (pKEM), persist years after total knee arthroplasty (TKA), are linked to poorer recovery, and may influence contralateral osteoarthritis progression. The purpose of this randomized clinical trial was to determine if a movement training program (MOVE) improves movement quality and recovery after TKA compared to a standardized rehabilitation program without movement training (CONTROL).

Methods: One hundred thirty-eight individuals were randomized to either MOVE or CONTROL groups after TKA.

The Influence of Strength and Skill Parameters on the Evolution of Dysphagia Post Stroke: A Prospective Study.

Dysphagia

December 2024

University of Canterbury Rose Centre for Stroke Recovery and Research, St George's Medical Centre, Level One, Leinster Chambers, 249 Papanui Road, Merivale, Christchurch, 8014, New Zealand.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigated how swallowing difficulties (dysphagia) evolve in stroke patients by examining the relationship between muscle strength and swallowing outcomes over six months.
  • Researchers tracked various data points, including diet level and swallowing quality, through multiple assessments after participants suffered their first stroke.
  • Findings revealed that while muscle strength improved in the first month, swallowing precision was critical for overall quality of life and function at six months, suggesting a need for early diagnosis in at-risk patients.
