The aim of this study is analyze possible modifications in the cerebral cortex, through quantitative electroencephalography (qEEG) in patients submitted to a tendon transfer procedure (posterior tibialis) by the Srinivasan's technique. Four subjects (2 men and 2 women), 49.25 age average (SD +/ 21.4) were studied. All subjects have been through surgical procedure due to leprosy and had, at leas...

UNLABELLED We report a descriptive analysis-interpretation of quantitative electroencephalography (QEEG) data for the metric of power in patients with tinnitus of the severe disabling type (N = 61). The results are based on a statistical analysis of the data compared to a normative database as calculated in Z scores, controlling for the factors of age, gender, IQ, and the like. METHOD We anal...

OBJECTIVES Therapeutic hypothermia (TH) after cardiac arrest (CA) improves outcomes in a fraction of patients. To enhance the administration of TH, we studied brain electrophysiological monitoring in determining the benefit of early initiation of TH compared to conventional administration in a rat model. METHODS Using an asphyxial CA model, we compared the benefit of immediate hypothermia (IH...

Introduction: There have been multiple explorations for the finding of biological markers of suicide. Some studies indicated the association of neurophysiological markers with suicidal ideation (SI). In previous studies, antidepressant treatment-emergent SI was associated with theta value in midline right frontal region, and pretreatment assessment of frontal quantitative EEG (QEEG) may be asso...

This paper presents a mobile, easy-to-maintain wireless electroencephalograph (EEG) system designed for work with children in school environment. EEG data acquisition platform is small-sized, battery-powered high sampling rate that scalable to different channel numbers. The was validated study of live z-score neurofeedback training quantitative (zNF-qEEG) typical-reading and those developmental...

INTRODUCTION Previous studies of patients with unipolar depression have shown that early decreases of EEG cordance (a new quantitative EEG method) can predict clinical response. We examined whether early QEEG decrease represents a phenomenon associated with response to treatment with different antidepressants in patients with treatment resistant depression. METHOD The subjects were 17 inpatie...

OBJECTIVES Serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI) antidepressant medications may have efficacy in relieving pain associated with fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS), even in the absence of major depressive disorder (MDD). Current practice is to use a trial-and-error treatment strategy, often requiring 8-12 weeks to determine the effectiveness of a given pharmacological intervention. The abi...
