ABSTRACT
@#Objective To study the effect of brain function biofeedback on children with spastic cerebral palsy following attention deficit disorder. Methods 44 children with spastic cerebral palsy were divided into 2 groups: 23 cases in observation group and 21in control group. The routine rehabilitation including physical therapy, occupational therapy, sensory integration, speech therapy and traditional Chinese medicine were used in two groups, while at the same time EEG biofeedback therapy was used in the observation group 5 times a week for 3 months. Chinese Binet Intelligence Scale (CBIS) and The Test of Variables of Attention (TOVA) were used to assess the effect before and after treatment. Results After the treatment, the intellectual level of the observation group significantly improved (P<0.01), omissions significantly reduced (P<0.01), error number was lower (P<0.05), reaction time was significantly shorter(P<0.01), mutation rate was significantly lower (P<0.01); while the intellectual level of the control group didn't significantly improve (P>0.05), omissions and reaction time significantly reduced (P<0.01), there was not obvious difference in error number and the mutation (P>0.05). Conclusion Brain function biofeedback can effectively improve attention disorder in children with spastic cerebral palsy.
