Effects of HRV Biofeedback on Brain Function and Emotional Regulation

Effects of HRV Biofeedback on Brain Function and Emotional Regulation

This 5-week clinical trial investigates how heart rate variability biofeedback impacts brain activity, emotional regulation, sleep, and biological markers in younger and older adults using multimodal neuroimaging, physiological measures, and questionnaires.

Abstract Synopsis

  • The study is a 5-week clinical trial investigating how heart rate variability (HRV) biofeedback affects brain function and emotional regulation, involving MRI scans, physiological measures, cognitive tests, and questionnaires in both younger and older participants.
  • Participants were randomly assigned to either increase or decrease their heart rate oscillations during daily sessions, with measurements repeated after the intervention to assess changes in brain activity, sleep, and emotional wellbeing.
  • Additional data, including plasma samples for amyloid and tau, were collected to explore potential links between HRV biofeedback and biological markers associated with neurodegenerative diseases, with all data accessible on the OpenNeuro platform.]
