Unlocking Healing Potential: Heart Rate Variability Biofeedback Intervention in Mild Traumatic Brain Injury Rehabilitation-A Mini Review

Hsueh Chen Lu*, Richard Gevirtz, Chi Cheng Yang

Mild Traumatic Brain Injury (mTBI) presents notable challenges for effective rehabilitation strategies. This minireview investigates the potential of Heart Rate Variability Biofeedback (HRV-BF) intervention in mTBI rehabilitation. Despite a limited number of studies, existing literature suggests promising outcomes linked to HRV-BF intervention, including enhancements in physiological and neuropsychological functioning. HRV-BF training could provide a non-invasive and readily accessible means of improving vagal tone and autonomic nervous system regulation, potentially assisting in managing mTBI symptoms. Nevertheless, further research with larger sample sizes and robust study designs is necessary to confirm the effectiveness and long-term advantages of HRV-BF intervention in mTBI rehabilitation. This review emphasizes the importance of exploring an innovative and non-invasive approach, HRV-BF, to optimize outcomes and enhance the quality of life for individuals recuperating from mTBI.
