title: Neurofeedback in Hereditary Angioedema: A Single Case Study of Symptom Reduction.
abstract: Neurofeedback training was performed consisting of rewarding and encouraging 12-15 Hz brainwaves (SMR), while simultaneously discouraging 4-7 Hz brainwaves (theta) and 22-30 Hz brainwaves (high beta) in the right dorsal posterior quadrant of the brain (T4, P4) for 20 half-hour NFB sessions to determine the impact on cortisol levels, DHEA-S levels, scores on the Symptom Checklist-90-R (SCL-90-R), the quality of life inventory, and acute attack medication usage for a Hereditary Angioedema patient.
