Distal pancreatectomy performed in a center experienced in pancreatic surgery is a safe procedure characterized by a low rate of complications and mortality.
EEG recording is used in veterinary medicine as a diagnostic tool to support clinical diagnosis of idiopathic epilepsy and to identify focal seizure activity. This retrospective study was designed to compare EEG procedures in 23 dogs with idiopathic epilepsy before and after phenobarbital treatment. Differences among standard deviations for particular bands were significant. During phenobarbital treatment the delta band decreased.
Introduction: EEG Biofeedback is a technique that enables the recognition and modification of the bioelectrical activity of the brain which can be used to improve the patient's concentration, control of impulses and reduce disturbance of emotions. Aim of the study: The aim of this research is to show the case of the patient with post-traumatic cerebrasthenia who was treated with a combination of both pharmacotherapy (tianeptine) and neurotherapy using mainly EGG BF in the bilateral module training SMR/beta + beta/delta. Material and methods: This research is based on a case history of a patient with an implantable cardioverter-difibrillator (ICD) who suffered from blood circulation obstruction caused by catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia. Due to a transient cerebral hypoxia the patient later showed symptoms of posttraumatic cerebrasthenia: problems with concentration, short-term memory and depressive symptoms. Results: The therapy resulted in increasing of the SMR and beta potential as well as the stabilization of the cognitive dysfunction and emotional disorders. Conclusions: Biofeedback is a useful and effective technique and can be also used in therapy of the patients with posttraumatic cerebrasthenia.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
