“…Durch die Stimulation dieser Frequenzen zielt es darauf ab, die Selbstregulationsfähigkeit des zentralen Nervensystems zu verbessern und stabile, ruhige Zustände zu fördern. Deshalb setzt man diese Form des Neurofeedbacks unter anderem auch zur Behandlung neurologischer und psychischer Störungen ein, darunter ADHS und Angstzustände 1 , 2 .…”

“…Neurofeedback-Training definiert sich als das Erlernen der Kontrolle über Gehirnereignisse durch sensorische Rückmeldungen. Es ist eine therapeutische Methode, die die Echtzeitdarstellungen der Gehirnaktivität präsentiert und die Klient*innen im Laufe der Zeit dahingehend trainiert, diese Aktivität zu beeinflussen und zu regulieren 1 .…”

“…The modulation of frequencies will take place at coordinate Cz, which receives projections of thalamic structures associated with executive functions of attention and information processing as well as memory processes 20. Moreover, modulation at Cz is a common approach in most existing NFB protocols,21 measuring activity in the somatosensory cortex, including attention, mental processing, calmness, emotion and empathy 17…”

IntroductionElectroencephalographic neurofeedback (NFB), as a non-invasive form of brainwave training, has been shown to be effective in the treatment of various mental health disorders. However, only few results regarding manualised and standardised NFB trainings exist. This makes comparison as well as replication of studies difficult. Therefore, we developed a standard manual for NFB training in patients with mental health disorders attending a psychosomatic outpatient clinic. The current study aims at investigating the conduction of a standardised manual for NFB training in patients with mental health disorders. If successful, the study provides new opportunities to investigate NFB in a more controlled and comparable manner in clinical practice.Methods and analysis30 patients diagnosed with a mental health disorder will be included. After the educational interview, patients will undergo baseline diagnostics (T0). The subsequent intervention consists of 10 sessions of NFB training aiming at increasing sensorimotor rhythm and alpha-frequency amplitudes and decreasing theta-frequency and high beta-frequency amplitudes to induce relaxation and decrease subjective stress. All patients will undergo a post-treatment diagnostic assessment (T1) and a follow-up assessment 8 weeks following the closing session (T2). Changes in amplitude bands (primary outcome) will be recorded with electroencephalography during pre-assessments, post-assessments and follow-up assessments and during NFB sessions. Physiological (respiratory rate, blood volume pulse, muscle tension) and psychometric parameters (distress, perceived stress, relaxation ability, depressive and anxiety symptoms, insomnia, self-efficacy and quality of life) will be assessed at T0, T1 and T2. Moreover, satisfaction, acceptance and usability will be assessed at T1 after NFB training. Further, qualitative interviews about the experiences with the intervention will be conducted with NFB practitioners 6 months after the study starts. Quantitative data will be analysed using repeated measures analysis of variance as well as mediation analyses on mixed linear models. Qualitative data will be analysed using Mayring’s content analysis.Ethics and disseminationThe study was approved by the ethics committee of the Medical Faculty of the University of Duisburg-Essen (23–11140-BO) and patient enrolment began in April 2023. Before participation, written informed consent by each participant will be required. Results will be published in peer-reviewed journals and conference presentations.Trial registration numberProspectively registered on 28 March 2023 in the German clinical trials register, DRKS00031497.

“…Neurofeedback is generally a computer-assisted training method in which usually imperceptible parameters of the patient’s brain activity are selectively made perceptible to the patient via audiovisual and/or tactile feedback. Neurofeedback aims to influence a particular brain activity, which is then recorded via EEG [ 19 ].…”

Infra-Low-Frequency Neurofeedback Treatment in Dysthymia: A Case Study

Depression is one of the most common mental disorders worldwide. Dysthymia, a long-lasting form of depressive disorder that is also known as persistent depressive disorder (PDD) with pure dysthymic syndrome according to the Diagnostical and Statical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5), is characterised by being difficult to treat. The most prominent therapeutic approaches in treating dysthymia are pharmacotherapy and psychotherapy, but recent studies also demonstrate the success of neurofeedback in treating individuals with depressive disorders. However, infra-low-frequency (ILF) neurofeedback, the main new neurofeedback protocol, lacks empirical evidence, and there is no evidence that it can treat dysthymia. This case report investigates the ILF neurofeedback method in a male patient with dysthymia. After 45 sessions of ILF neurofeedback combined with ILF synchrony, a decrease in symptom severity was found on assessment after treatment, and these results remained consistent at a low level at a 6-month follow-up. Additionally, the patient reported benefits on interpersonal and cognitive levels and in daily life situations. This study should incentivise further investigations into using ILF neurofeedback to treat dysthymia and all variations of depressive disorders.
