Brain training with neurofeedback in patients with mild cognitive impairment: A review study

Objective: The study aimed to review the efficacy of Neurofeedback training in patients with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI). Method: Review in scientific databases Science Direct, Web of Science (WoS)-ISI of Thompson Reuters-, Scopus, and PubMed. Taking as reference key terms in the English language: “mild cognitive impairment”, “mild cognitive decline”, “Neurofeedback”, “Brain ware” and “EEG feedback. Results: Most studies were published between 2019 and 2020. No homogeneity was found in the protocols used in terms of training time, EEG frequency band stimulation, age groups, sample size, and gender. Unanimity was found in the efficacy of Neurofeedback training on physiological and cognitive performance in patients with MCI. Conclusions: Neurofeedback stimulation has proven to be an effective tool for the rehabilitation of cognitive functions and physiological activity in patients with MCI.
