Аннотация: The postural sway biofeedback is based on constant monitoring of patient’s pressure center position (CP). Patient gets the possibility to learn of voluntary displacement of CP with the different amplitude, speed, accuracy, and direction during special computer games. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of the postural sway biofeedback on the upright posture stability in patients with poststroke hemiparesis (PH), Parkinson’s disease (PD), and spinocerebellar ataxia (SCA). A total of 187 patients including 57 patients with PH, 76 with prevalence of rigidity and hypokinesia forms of idiopathic PD, and 57 with SCA were investigated. All patients were randomly divided into two groups: the basic group of 148 patients who received complex therapy enclosed the postural sway biofeedback and the control group of 39 patients who did not receive the postural sway biofeedback. The patients stood on a force platform and learned to control position of CP with visual feedback during the special computer games. A daily session lasted 15 min. The balance training consisted of 10 sessions. The patients of the basic group demonstrated more significant improvement of their postural stability. There was also a more significant improvement of attention concentration, mental neurodynamics processes and positive changes in the emotional and will spheres. Results suggest that postural disorders in the patients with PH, PD, and SCA can be reduced as a result of the biofeedback postural sway training. They also indicated that the including of the balance training in rehabilitation programs improves the cognitive and emotional state of the patients.
