Biofeedback

This study aims to compare the efficiency of biofeedback therapy alone versus biofeedback therapy with medical treatment for dysfunctional voiding in children.

The aim of this study is to ascertain which pathways currently exist in relation to the follow up of patients with obstetric anal sphincter injury related incontinence. This is particularly important as afflicted individuals may not readily volunteer information about their symptoms and struggles and need to be safeguarded by the presence of robust care pathways that ensure adequate follow up and care provision. As obstetric anal sphincter injuries have been associated with increased litigation rates over the years, positive interventions towards patient care will help ameliorate the financial burden that litigation carries on the National Health Service. It is noteworthy of mention that perineal injury, in itself, may not be suggestive of negligent care and is a recognized complication of vaginal delivery. However, a failure to adequately manage the injury may carry medicolegal implications.

The purpose of this clinical trial is to investigate the effect of myoelectric biofeedback therapy on upper limb function in elderly patients with cerebral infarction, and to analyze the adjustment of stroke condition and quality of life.The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does myoelectric biofeedback therapy promote the restoration of upper limb function in elderly patients with cerebral infarction? 2. What medical problems do participants have with myoelectric biofeedback therapy?

Background: Infertility is a serious reproductive health issue and affects 48.5 million couples worldwide. Women undergoing fertility treatment often experienced psychological distress but also social stigma that is close linked to later pregnancy outcome. Despite the advancement in assisted reproductive technology, effective interventions for reducing stress, anxiety, and depressive symptoms for infertility women remain lacking. Objectives: The objective of this proposal is to evaluate the efficacy of web-based mind-body intervention combining HRV biofeedback on the infertility women's anxiety symptoms, levels of depression, HRV function, mindful awareness, infertility self-efficacy, and pregnancy rates. Methods: We plan to conduct a randomized controlled trial on the web-based mind-body intervention combining heart rate variability biofeedback. Eligible women will be recruited and randomized into three groups. Intention-to-treat analysis and mixed regression modeling will be used to estimate the effectiveness of the interventions. Anticipatory results: Effective strategies will be determined for infertility women.
