Abstract
The objective of the present study was to evaluate the effectiveness of EEG biofeedback for treatment of psychogenic non-epileptic seizures (PNES) in a patient with multiple sclerosis. The patient was a 47-year-old female who has been experiencing several PNES types after being diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. She underwent 16 sessions of the EEG biofeedback over a period of two months. Following EEG biofeedback, the patient reported that her PNES attacks had stopped and the treatment resulted in significant abatement in her clinical seizure symptoms. The analysis of sensorimotor rhythm (SMR) values revealed reduction of psychogenic non-epileptic seizure. The Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI) and Word Health Organization Quality of Life Questionnaire (WHOQOL) were used before and after treatment. Decreased anxiety as well as increased quality of life was observed after treatment. Generally, the results indicated that EEG biofeedback was a useful procedure in treating PNES, promoting quality of life and reducing anxiety in our patient with multiple sclerosis.
