Cognitive Rehabilitation Using Neurofeedback With Brain-computer Interface
Cognitive Rehabilitation Using Neurofeedback With Brain-computer Interface - CONNECT: A Prospective Randomised Controlled Trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine whether a Brain-Computer Interface Neurofeedback Training (BCI-NFT) programme can improve cognitive outcomes, and whether electroencephalography (EEG)-based measures can serve as objective markers of cognitive impairment, in children and adolescents aged 7 to 21 years with acquired brain injury (ABI), including traumatic brain injury (TBI), stroke, encephalitis, brain tumour, or epilepsy.
A group of children and adolescents aged 7 to 21 years without any history of brain injury or epilepsy will also be enrolled to provide normative EEG data for comparison.
The main questions the study aims to answer are:
- Can EEG-derived measures of sustained attention, relaxation, and selective attention detect and quantify cognitive impairment in children and adolescents following ABI?
- Does a structured BCI-NFT programme improve cognitive and behavioural outcomes, including attention, memory, and executive function, compared with standard care alone?
Researchers will compare an Intervention Group, who will receive BCI-NFT in addition to standard cognitive rehabilitation, with a Waitlist-Control Group, who will initially receive standard care alone before subsequently crossing over to receive BCI-NFT. This design will allow researchers to determine whether BCI-NFT leads to greater improvements in cognitive and behavioural outcomes compared with standard care alone.
Participants in the main ABI cohort will:
- Complete behavioural assessments using the Behavior Assessment System for Children, Third Edition (BASC-3), including parent and/or teacher reports.
- Complete 12 BCI-NFT sessions over a 10-week period. Each session will last approximately 60 minutes. During each session, participants will wear a wireless EEG headset and interact with neurofeedback computer games designed to respond to their sustained attention, selective attention, and response time.
- Repeat the BASC-3 behavioural assessments at the end of the study period.
- Have undergone a recent neuropsychological assessment within the preceding 2 years and ongoing review by a neuropsychologist.
Participants in the normative EEG cohort, comprising children and adolescents without a history of brain injury or epilepsy, will attend a single study session. During this session, EEG activity will be recorded both at rest and while participants interact with a three-dimensional (3D) computer game. These recordings will provide normative EEG data against which findings from participants with ABI can be compared.

Change in Attention Threshold
時間枠:Baseline (Session 1) to final session (Session 12), over 10 weeks
|
Change in the game's adaptive attention threshold value, measured at each session, on a normalised scale between 0 to 1, where the greater value indicates greater sustained attention.
|
Baseline (Session 1) to final session (Session 12), over 10 weeks
|
|
Change in Relaxation Threshold
時間枠:Baseline (Session 1) to final session (Session 12), over 10 weeks
|
Change in the game's adaptive threshold value, measured at each session, according to the normalised scale between 0 and 1, where higher value means greater sustained relaxation.
|
Baseline (Session 1) to final session (Session 12), over 10 weeks
|
|
Change in Response Time
時間枠:Baseline (Session 1) to final session (Session 12), over 10 weeks
|
Change in mean response time to in-game stimuli, measured in milliseconds, at each session.

Baseline (Session 1) to final session (Session 12), over 10 weeks
|
|
Change in Alpha-Lateralization Index
時間枠:Baseline (Session 1) to final session (Session 12), over 10 weeks
|
Change in the alpha-lateralization index, a unitless measure derived from posterior EEG channels (P7/P8, O1/O2), ranging from -1 to +1, measured at each session.

Internalising problem score on Behavior Assessment System for Children, Third Edition (BASC-3)
時間枠:From enrollment to 20 weeks
|
Total internalising symptoms (anxiety, depression, somatisation) on BASC-3 questionnaire.
T-scores for the BASC-3 Internalizing Problems composite range from a minimum of 20 to a maximum of 120.
Higher scores indicate greater severity of mood disorder.

Externalising symptoms score in Behavior Assessment System for Children, Third Edition (BASC-3)
時間枠:From enrollment to end of study 20 weeks
|
Degree of change in total score for externalising symptoms (Hyperactivity, aggression, conduct problems) in BASC-3 questionnaire.
Raw score will be converted to T-score with range from 20 to 120.
Higher score suggests a high level of maladjustment or severe impairment
