QEEG DATABANK
QEEG Data Bank:
A preliminary interview is conducted to understand the complaints, and information is gathered about health problems, and if necessary, school, work, and family life.
Then, if deemed necessary, a DIGITAL EEG (QEEG) recording is performed.
Research has shown that the origin of our brain's electrical activity is in the white matter (thalamus) and that billions of nerve cells in the gray matter contribute to this production through their interconnectedness.
Neurometric analysis performed with the QEEG Data Bank provides valuable information for doctors in diagnosing many psychiatric illnesses by looking at the electrical signals in the brain, and all QEEG variables are calculated with a z-score; for that age group, a standard deviation of +/- 2 is considered normal. If the standard deviation is greater than normal, this determines the neuropathology and the severity of the abnormality.
Many studies have shown that those who can normalize their Z-scores benefit most from Neurofeedback treatment.
Before starting Biofeedback (EEG Biofeedback: Neurofeedback), the brain EEG is digitally recorded to determine which areas are planned to be adjusted, and these recordings can be repeated during or after treatment. The aim is to see if the necessary adjustment has been made.
QEEG Recording:
A cap containing electrodes is placed on the scalp, and the brain's electrical activity is recorded digitally using a QEEG (Digital EEG) device. This recording is done with FDA-approved 128 Hz digital EEG equipment. The electrodes are placed inside this cap using an international 10/20 system. This recording captures electrical activity from the frontal, central, temporal, parietal, and occipital regions of the brain. Four types of electrical activity are produced by our brain, based on their rate per second.
Neurometric Analysis System:
QEEG results are processed using FDA-approved neurometric analysis systems such as NxLink and Neuroguide to support diagnosis. Patients' z-scores and abnormalities are identified, and a report is provided to the family.
QEEG-Integrated Neurofeedback:
Regular neurofeedback training sessions begin after this. These sessions, lasting approximately 60 minutes, should be held at least four times a week. Daily sessions are actually more beneficial. Changes are seen as early as 15-20 sessions, and in some cases even after the 20th session. If learning is reinforced, many patients experience lasting benefits.
