Biofeedback is a technique used in rehabilitation that provides patients with sensory information about their physiological functions and movements. This allows them to learn self-regulation of certain bodily processes. The summary discusses two main categories of biofeedback - physiological and biomechanical. Physiological biofeedback techniques discussed include EMG, HR, HRV, and respiratory biofeedback. Biomechanical techniques include use of force plates, inertial sensors, electrogoniometers, and camera systems to provide feedback on movement and balance. The summary concludes that while evidence supports use of biofeedback in rehabilitation, more research is still needed.

Biofeedback is a therapeutic technique that involves using electronic monitoring devices to provide real-time feedback about physiological processes in the body. The primary goal of biofeedback is to help individuals learn to control these processes voluntarily for therapeutic purposes.
Postexercise Cold Water Immersion Benefits Are Not Greater than the Placebo E...Fernando Farias
A CWI placebo is also as effective as
CWI itself in the recovery of muscle strength over 48 h.
This can likely be attributed to improved subjective ratings
of pain and readiness for exercise, suggesting that the hy-
pothesized physiological benefits surrounding CWI may
be at least partly placebo related.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Palestine last event orientationfvgnh .pptxRaedMohamed3
An EFL lesson about the current events in Palestine. It is intended to be for intermediate students who wish to increase their listening skills through a short lesson in power point.
3. Introduction
Feedback:
• It is sensory information that is received and
processed by the learner during or after performance
of a movement or task.
• Two types of Feedback: Intrinsic and Extrinsic
4. BIOFEEDBACK
• A training technique that enables an individual to
gain some element of voluntary control over
muscular or autonomic nervous system functions
using a device that produce a auditory or visual
stimuli
- Guide to physical therapist practice
5. Advantages
• Information to the patient immediately
• Active participation by patient
• Not required sophisticated Understanding
• Saves Physiotherapist’s Time
7. Strategies
• Biofeedback usually involves in using one of two
strategies;
1. Direct feedback regarding the measured variable, as in the
case of heart rate or heart rate variability, where a numerical
value is displayed on a wearable device, such as a watch.
2. Transformed feedback regarding the measured variable,
where the measurements are used to control an adaptive
auditory signal, visual display or tactile feedback method.
10. Electomyography (EMG)
biofeedback
• EMG biofeedback is a method of retraining muscle
by creating new feedback systems as a result of the
conversion of myoelectrical signals in the muscle into
visual and auditory signals.
• EMG uses surface electrodes to detect a change in
skeletal muscle activity, which is then fed back to the
user usually by a visual or auditory signal
11. Electomyography (EMG)
biofeedback
• EMG biofeedback can be used to either increase
activity in weak or paretic muscle or it can be used to
facilitate a reduction in tone is a spastic one.
12. Electomyography (EMG)
biofeedback
• Draper and Ballard [1] suggested that EMG biofeedback is
more effective in facilitating the recovery of quadriceps femoris
muscle peak torque than electrical stimulation treatment in
participants post anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.
• Ma et al. [2], compared EMG biofeedback, active exercise,
passive treatment and a no treatment control in the treatment
of work-related neck and shoulder pain. The results of this
study suggest that EMG biofeedback produced a generalized
relaxation effect in the neck and shoulder muscles, which was
not found in the other intervention groups.
13. Electomyography (EMG)
biofeedback
• Inglis et al. [3] showed that compared to
conventional therapy, EMG biofeedback resulted in
greater improvements in functional properties such
as muscle force, active range of movement and
motor recovery in hemiplegic patients.
• Researcher suggest that EMG biofeedback of triceps
surae muscle activity during gait may be efficacious in
improving gait symmetry in children with CP [4].
14. Real-time ultrasound Imaging
(RTUS) biofeedback
• RTUS send short pulses of ultrasound into the body
and using reflections received from tissue interfaces,
images of internal structures are produced.
• Thus RTUS is capable of giving immediate real-time
visual feedback of muscle activity by allowing the
user to directly see the muscle changing shape/length
on a display
16. Real-time ultrasound Imaging
(RTUS) biofeedback
• Study suggest that RTUS used to provide visual
biofeedback improves activation of the multifidus
muscle in healthy subjects [5].
• RTUS has also been successfully used to provide
visual feedback of pelvic floor muscle activation.
• Dietz et al. [6] showed that 32 of 56 women learned
correct activation of their pelvic floor muscles with
less than 5 minutes of RTUS biofeedback training.
18. Heart rate (HR) biofeedback
• HR can be measured using a heart rate monitor or an
electrocardiogram to deliver feedback to patients.
• HR biofeedback is a therapeutic approach which
allows patients to control their HR by means of
direct representation of the numerical value of HR
on a wearable device such as a watch or a handheld
display.
19. Heart rate (HR) biofeedback
• Fredrikson and Engel [7] found that HR biofeedback
resulted in a significant decrease in HR while exercising on
a cycle ergometer.
• Moleiro and Cid [8] investigated the effects of HR
biofeedback training on the control of HR during a
physical exercise test, comparing it to verbal instructions
to reduce HR.
• They found that the participants who trained with HR
biofeedback showed a greater attenuation in the increase
in HR produced by exercise than participants who trained
with verbal control instructions.
20. Heart rate variability (HRV) or
respiratory sinus arrythmia
(RSA) biofeedback
• HRV refers to the variability in the time between
heart beat.
• These variations in HR are regulated by the
autonomic nervous system.
• HRV at the frequency of respiratory, which is also
termed RSA, refers to the increase in HR with
inspiration and the decrease in HR with expiration.
21. Heart rate variability (HRV) or
respiratory sinus arrythmia
(RSA) biofeedback
• HRV biofeedback appears to be a useful adjunct in
the treatment of asthma and may help to reduce
dependence on steroid medications [9].
• HRV biofeedback can be used to improve overall
functioning and depression in patients with
fibromyalgia
22. Respiratory biofeedback
• Respiratory biofeedback is delivered by measuring
breathing using electrodes or sensors attached to the
abdomen and by converting breathing to auditory
and visual signals for the user.
• Teaching diaphragmatic breathing in patients with
respiratory disease is the most common means of
providing respiratory biofeedback
23. Respiratory biofeedback
• Biofeedback assisted diaphragmatic breathing and
systematic relaxation were equally as effective as
propranolol in reducing the frequency, severity and
duration of migraine headaches after six months of
treatment.
• Respiratory biofeedback has been suggested as a
useful tool for calming down breathing and for
promoting relaxation.
24. Respiratory biofeedback
• Biofeedback on breathing exercises has been shown
to be an effective treatment for hypertension.
• Grossman and colleagues [10] investigated the effects
that breathing exercises guided by interactive music
feedback had on hypertension in their RCT and
found this intervention to be effective in reducing
blood pressure.
25. Biomechanical biofeedback
• Biomechanical biofeedback involves measurements
of the movement, postural control and forces
produced by the body.
• Inertial sensors, force plates, electrogoimeters,
pressure biofeedback units and camera based systems
are all measurement devices which can be used to
provide biomechanical biofeedback.
26. Biomechanical biofeedback
• More complex than physiological biofeedback
• For example, a force plate can be used to deliver both
feedback on force and postural control.
27. Inertial sensors
• Inertial sensing uses accelerometers and gyroscopes
to estimate three-dimensional (3-D) kinematic
information of a body segment, such as orientation,
velocity and gravitational force.
• An accelerometer measures acceleration and
gravitational acceleration, while a gyroscope is used
to measure angular velocity
• Small size and portability inertial sensors have proven
useful in movement and balance applications.
28.
29. Inertial sensors
• Davis and colleagues [11] used gyroscopic measurements
to provide biofeedback and found significant changes in
trunk angular displacement in both young and older
participants during a number of balance tasks compared
to control treatment.
• Study including participants with bilateral vestibular loss
indicated that the audio biofeedback training reduced
postural sway and was more effective for participants with
bilateral vestibular loss than for the unaffected controls.
30. Force plate systems
• Force plate systems measure the ground reaction
force generated by the body and can be used to give
feedback on balance, movement and gait.
• The feedback is normally delivered by using the
ground reaction forces as input to a visual display
that changes with changes in force.
31. Force plate systems
• White and Lifeso [12] evaluated the effects that
ground reaction force (GRF) feedback had in
reducing asymmetric limb loading after total hip
arthroplasty and concluded that real-time visual
feedback is an effective method of teaching total hip
arthroplasty patients to equalize limb loading
32. Electrogoniometery
• Electrogoniometry allows measurement of joint
kinematics during functional tasks and movements
yielding real-time feedback to clinicians and patients.
• As the kinematics of the joint change feedback is
delivered, usually via an auditory signal or visual
display.
33. Electrogoniometery
• Ceceli et al. [13] and Morris et al. [14] analyzed the
effectiveness of providing kinematic biofeedback of
the knee, using electrogoniometers compared with
conventional physiotherapy in efforts to minimize
genu recurvatum in participants who had a CVA.
• Electrogoniometery is a relatively inexpensive
method of providing kinematic biofeedback,
34. Pressure biofeedback unit
• A pressure biofeedback unit (PBU) is a tool
developed to aid the retraining of muscle activity and
can provide useful visual biofeedback during
treatment.
• PBU’s have been used to indicate correct contraction
of the transversus abdominis muscle during the
abdominal hollowing exercise.
35. Pressure biofeedback unit
• Research has found that lumbar spine stabilisation
using a PBU results in significant increases in gluteus
Medius and internal oblique activity during a hip
abduction exercise [15].
• While the PBU is a useful tool for assessing the
abdominal drawing in exercise
36. Camera based systems
• Video cameras allow clinicians and patients to
examine locomotion qualitatively, whereas optical
motion capture systems allow for quantitative 3-D
movement analysis.
• Optical motion capture systems use a network of
cameras to detect a series of markers placed on
anatomical landmarks on a subject’s body.
• This information is then used by the system to
deliver visual feedback of movement and posture.
37. Camera based systems
• Kim and colleagues [16] investigated the effects of
using a video camera to provide visual feedback to
participants with winged scapula during a push up
exercise.
• Providing visual biofeedback resulted in increased
activity of the serratus anterior muscle and decreased
activity of the upper trapezius muscle.
38. Camera based systems
• Research has also shown that using videotape
biofeedback is an effective instructional method for
enhancing motor skill acquisition in a post stroke
population [17].
39. Recent developments in biofeedback
signal delivery
• Biofeedback is most commonly delivered using
visual, auditory or haptic signals however recent years
have witnessed the emergence of immersive, VR
biofeedback signals.
• VR and therapeutic exergames provide patients
opportunities to engage in meaningful, intensive,
enjoyable tasks related to real-life interests and
activities of daily living.
40. Recent developments in biofeedback
signal delivery
• A small case study reported on the use of computerized
biofeedback training in a VR environment to improve
hand function in a post CVA population[18].
• Broeren et al. [19] made use of a game in a virtual
environment, along with a forcefeedback haptic device, to
improve control of a CVA patient’s left hemiparetic arm.
Their results showed that the patient was motivated to
practice and exhibited improved dexterity, grip force, and
motor control.
41. Biofeedback in Sport
• Biofeedback has become an important part of
achieving the highest levels of athletic performance.
• Athletes and sports people of all kinds can learn to
alter and improve their own physiological states and
responses to stressful situations.
• Biofeedack training builds confidence as the athlete
learns that "harmful" stress can be dissipated and on
optimal level of performance can be reached.
42. Summary
• Biofeedback has been used for many years to assist
patients and clinicians during rehabilitation.
• Biofeedback applications that are currently being
used in physical rehabilitation and classified the
different types of biofeedback into two main
categories; physiological biofeedback biomechanical
biofeedback.
43. Summary
• EMG biofeedback is by far the most popular form
of biofeedback, however newer technologies are
been investigated for their potential as biofeedback
tools.
• While the evidence to support the use of
biofeedback in rehabilitation appears promising,
