Digital Heart Rate Variability Biofeedback Intervention for First Episode Psychosis

2. juni 2026 opdateret af: The University of Hong Kong

Digital Heart Rate Variability Biofeedback Intervention for First Episode Psychosis: A Randomized Controlled Trial

The objective of the current study is to assess the impact of a five-week digital heart rate variability biofeedback (HRV-B) intervention or music listening on the well-being of first episode psychosis patients. Heart rate variability (HRV) is a measure of how an individual's heart rate can adapt to a changing environment and mental and physiological challenges. It has been well established that HRV can be regulated through actions such as slow breathing and meditation. HRV Biofeedback (HRV-B) involves breathing at a specific frequency, usually around 6 breaths per minute, which has been shown to maximize HRV. Research has shown that HRV-B interventions improved mental health symptoms in various populations including individuals at clinical high risk for psychosis.

Våben og indgreb

Deltagergruppe / Arm
Intervention / Behandling
Eksperimentel: Heart Rate Variability Biofeedback (HRV-B)
The HRV-B intervention will consist of five weeks of daily HRV-B practice, based on previous empirical studies that used 5 weeks (Tatschl et al, 2020) with 6 weekly lab visits or checkins. Participants will practice for 10 minutes in the morning and evening for a total of 20 minutes per day, using a wearable device and mobile app.

Aktiv komparator: Music Listening
The control group will undergo a 5 week active control intervention consisting of daily music listening and 6 weekly check ins. Control participants will listen to music through an app for 10 minutes in the morning and 10 minutes in the evening, for a total of 20 minutes daily, using a mobile app. They will be instructed to avoid doing other tasks when listening to the music to ensure consistency between individuals.

Foranstaltningsbeskrivelse
Tidsramme
Depression Symptoms
Tidsramme: 5 weeks, 3 data points

Foranstaltningsbeskrivelse
Tidsramme
State Paranoia
Tidsramme: 5 weeks, 6 data points
The Chinese version of the Paranoid Ideation Checklist (Chan et al, 2011) will be completed by participants weekly during lab visits. Minimum score: 18 (no state paranoia), maximum score 90 (severe state paranoia).
5 weeks, 6 data points
Psychotic Symptoms
Tidsramme: 5 weeks, 2 data points
The Chinese version of the Positive and Negative Symptom Scale (PANSS) evaluation will be conducted by a trained assessor during intake and at the final visit to rate the severity of the patient's psychotic symptoms. Minimum score: 30 (minimal psychotic symptoms) maximum score: 210 (severe psychotic symptoms).
5 weeks, 2 data points
Heart Rate Variability (HRV)
Tidsramme: 5 weeks, 70 data points
RR Intervals (time between heart beats) are automatically stored in the Elite HRV app after every training session. Additionally, SDNN and RMSSD as measured in the EliteHRV app will be extracted from each training session during the weekly checkins.
5 weeks, 70 data points
Ideas of Reference
