| EN Abstract: |
| Objective:To discuss the effectiveness of biofeedback therapy for anxiety in elderly patients.Methods:Sixty four elderly patients with anxiety were randomly divided into study group (n=34,treated by sertraline and biofeedback therapy) and control group (n=30,treated by sertraline).Hamilton depression rating scale for depression (HAMA) and Philadelphia geriatric center morale scale (PGCMS) were adopted to evaluate the therapeutic effects.Results:After treatment for 8 weeks,the scores of HAMA in both groups were declined obviously as compared with those before treatment,more significantly in study group (all P<0.05).The scores of PGCMS in both groups were increased obviously as compared with those before treatment,more significantly in study group of total scores,factors of "agitation" and "loneliness and dissatisfaction" (P<0.05 for all).The significant efficiency in study group was higher than that in control group obviously (P<0.05).Conclusion:Biofeedback is a good adjuvant method for treating anxiety in elderly patients. |
