The following studies have been completed at the Research Institute
of Hygiene and Occupational Diseases, Siberian Department of the Russian
Academy of Medical Sciences. The following results were published and
presented at several international meetings and conferences in Europe,
Russia and the United States:
- Variability of blood flow waveform during biofeedback and its
correlation to super-slow processes of hemodynamics;
- Cross-correlation of variability of brain blood flow waveform and
variability of RR Intervals during successful biofeedback sessions;
- Brain blood flow biofeedback training on students of Novokuznetsk
Technical University and Barnaul State University and effects on their
productivity;
- Brain blood flow biofeedback on workers of West Siberian Steel
Manufacturing Plant and effect on productivity and error reduction.
Below is the incomplete list of publications dedicated to peripheral
and cerebral blood flow biofeedback and studies of
hemodynamics. The abstracts of the articles and presentations will
be available soon.
