|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Biofeedback is a modality that | uses an electromechanical device to provide visual and/or auditory feedback.
🗑
|
||||
| Biofeedback can be utilized to | receive information related to motor performance, kinesthetic performance or physiological response.
🗑
|
||||
| Biofeedback can measure | peripheral skin temperature, changes in blood volume through vasodilation and vasoconstriction using finger phototransmission, sweat gland activity, and electrical activity during muscle contraction.
🗑
|

| Prior to treatment the therapist should | ensure that the patientʼs skin is clean and dry.
🗑
|
||||
| The two active electrodes should be placed | parallel to the muscle fibers and close to each other.
🗑
|
||||
| The reference or ground electrode can be placed | anywhere on the body, but is often secured between the two active electrodes.
🗑
|
||||
| The signals are transmitted to a | differential amplifier and information is conveyed through visual and audio feedback.
🗑
|
||||
| The treatment for muscle re-education should begin with the patient | performing a maximal muscle contraction.
🗑
|
||||
| re-ed The sensitivity of the biofeedback unit | should be set at a low sensitivity setting and adjusted so that the patient can perform the repetitions at a ratio of two-thirds of the maximal muscle contraction.
🗑
|
||||
| re-ed Treatment duration for a single muscle group is | five to ten minutes.
🗑
|
||||
| The treatment for muscle relaxation requires a | high sensitivity setting and a similar electrode placement with active electrodes initially positioned close to each other.
🗑
|
||||
| As the patient improves with relaxation, | the electrodes should be placed further apart and the sensitivity setting increased.
🗑
|
||||
| relaxition-During this treatment, | the patient may also benefit from adjunct relaxation techniques such as imagery.
