Introduction: The aim of this study is the comparison of biofeedback and Kegel treatment methods on quality of life enhancement in women with urine incontinency. Methods: In a quasi experimental study,45 women with urge urine inconstancy who referred to Atieh neuroscience center from October to February 2015 were selected with randomized sampling and were assigned in two groups of control and experiment. Patients in biofeedback group received 40 minutes electromyography biofeedback during five sessions and per twice a week. In Kegel group, patients performed the Kegel experiments 30 minutes during 8 weeks per twice a week. Patients were appraised the quality of life questionnaire before and after the treatment. Finally the data were analyzed with ANCOVA method. Results: Biofeedback induced a significant change in quality of life of women with urinary incontinency (p

Objective: we examined the effect of emotion-focused and cognitive interventions on resonance frequency (RF) of heart rate variability (HRV) and stress reduction in patients after coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG). Methods: 75 post-CABG patients who were participated in cardiac rehabilitation program of Tehran Heat Center(THC) were selected based on inclusion criteria uch as age Results: The results showed significant reduction in stress (P Conclusion: psychological interventions such as emotion-focused and cognitive techniques can reduce stress and negative emotions in patients with coronary heart disease. The interventions can increase also resonance frequency (0.1Hz) and consequently heart rate variability (index of health and well-being) of stressed Coronary patients.
