TREATMENT OF PSYCHO-EMOTIONAL DISORDERS BY NEUROFEEDBACK IN WOMEN WITH A HISTORY OF INFERTILITY AND PRENATAL STRESS

Zaporizhzhia State Medical University, Ukraine

There was studied 41 patients to determine the clinical efficiency of biological feedback in the treatment of infertile women who experienced a prenatal stress. The women were divided into two clinical groups: one used the author's treatment and biological feedback method, and the other used standard infertility treatments. Biological feedback training is a set of procedures in which the patient is provided with information about his/her condition or body functions by a special technical means through a chain of external feedback. The basis of biological feedback is the relationship between mental and autonomic functions of the body. The psycho−emotional state of patients was assessed according to the Beck Depression Scales, the level of anxiety was determined according to the Spielberger − Hanin scale on the 1st day of observation (1st visit) and at the end of the biological feedback training course on the 10th day of observation. According to the study, the number of patients with infertility and prenatal stress who improved their psycho−emotional state as a result of a course of biological feedback training increased immediately after completing the course with daily self−training. There was a significant difference between the indices on the appropriate scales at the beginning and end of the study, that reflects the ability of women to improve their psycho−emotional state through the method of biomanagement. Thus, a 10−day course of biological feedback training is fully accompanied by improved cognitive function and psycho−emotional state of women with infertility and prenatal stress. Patients have a positive effect of bioadaptive therapy for a long time.

Key words: infertility, prenatal stress, psychoemotional disorders, bioadaptive management, neurofeedback method.
