A comprehensive “Concussion Recovery Program” with emphasis on brain coaching and EEG-based neurofeedback therapy: A retrospective analysis
Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc.
“Data from 46 patients reviewed showed significant improvements in several cognitive domains. Primary outcome measures were the 3 CNS Vital Signs domains known to be most sensitive to mild traumatic brain injury: Complex Attention, Cognitive Flexibility, and Executive Functioning. Paired t-tests were used to compare mean scores before and after treatment. For all 3 domains, patients experienced significant improvement after treatment (p < 0.00001), with medium or large effect sizes. For all 3 domains, over half of patients experienced score improvements greater than the Reliable Change Index.”
