EPISIOTOMY AS ONE OF THE PROBLEMS OF MODERN PERINIOLOGY

Abstract

Objective: the study is to determine the effectiveness of EEG-biofeedback training on β-rhythm for correcting voluntary attention in children 6 – 8 years of age with the consequences of perinatal CNS lesions of hypoxic-ischemic genesis. Materials and methods: a total of 120 children aged 6 – 8 years who included 30 children with cerebrastenic syndrome (I group) were examined; 58 children with hyperactivity and attention deficit syndrome (II group); 32 children with cerebral palsy, spastic diplegia (III group). EEG-biofeedback training on β-rhythm correction was carried out in an amount of 15 sessions lasting 20 – 30 minutes on the Kinesis machine (Neurot, Russia). Before and after the biofeedback therapy, a psychodiagnostic evaluation of the functions of voluntary attention on the Toulouse-Pieron scale was carried out (in the adaptation of LA Yasyukova, 2001). EEG recording was performed on an EEG 21/26 encephalograph Encephalan-131-03, modification 10 (Manufacturer: NPKF Medikom MTD, Russia). For statistical analysis of the obtained indicators before and after treatment, the significance criterion was used to compare the two proportions (fractions) under the assumption that the variables are distributed according to the normal law (package STATISTICS 6.0). Results: the effectiveness of EEG-biofeedback training on β-rhythm correction was revealed, as evidenced by a significant decrease in the number of children with isolated types of attention disorders in all groups of patients as well as with mixed disorders in the II group. Conclusion: аctivation of cortical processes, increasing the level of attention, memory and cognitive abilities of the psyche, when EEG-biofeedback training is included in the therapy complex, depend on the nature and severity of central nervous system lesions in children with various nosological forms of neurological pathology, which requires rethinking of therapeutic complex methods of correction and selection of personalized biofeedback training protocols, taking into account data on various types of metabolic and neurophysiological abnormalities in the head in children with different nosological forms of neurological disorders.
