title: [Reduction of the severity of affective disorders in patients with the first episode of schizophrenia using the method of bioacoustics correction].
abstract: Authors examined 17 adolescents, aged 15-17 years, during the manifestation of slow-progressive schizophrenia. The possibility of the correction of affective disorders, on the basis of involuntary self-regulation using bioacoustics correction (BAC), was studied. BAC method is based on on computed EEG transformation into acoustic signals. The use of BAC method led to the stable reduction of depression and anxiety and their corresponding clinical presentations. The positive changes in the patient's state were accompanied by the EEG reorganization. The decrease in the intensity of beta- and delta-index, the increase of the power of the alpha-rhythm and the decrease of the interhemispheric asymmetry were noted. It has been concluded, that the bioacoustics correction procedures promote the formation of new skills and behaviors by means of restructuring of conditioned reflexes and reshaping (redesigning) of time constraints in the central nervous system. BAC is recommended as an effective and physiologically adequate way of therapy in adolescent schizophrenic patients with anxiety-depressive syndromes.
