Deans' stroke musings: Effect of Pink Noise on EEG and Memory Performance in Memory Task

Changing stroke rehab and research worldwide now.Time is Brain! trillions and trillions of neurons that DIE each day because there are NO effective hyperacute therapies besides tPA(only 12% effective). I have 523 posts on hyperacute therapy, enough for researchers to spend decades proving them out. These are my personal ideas and blog on stroke rehabilitation and stroke research. Do not attempt any of these without checking with your medical provider. Unless you join me in agitating, when you need these therapies they won't be there.

What this blog is for:

My blog is not to help survivors recover, it is to have the 10 million yearly stroke survivors light fires underneath their doctors, stroke hospitals and stroke researchers to get stroke solved. 100% recovery. The stroke medical world is completely failing at that goal, they don't even have it as a goal. Shortly after getting out of the hospital and getting NO information on the process or protocols of stroke rehabilitation and recovery I started searching on the internet and found that no other survivor received useful information. This is an attempt to cover all stroke rehabilitation information that should be readily available to survivors so they can talk with informed knowledge to their medical staff. It lays out what needs to be done to get stroke survivors closer to 100% recovery. It's quite disgusting that this information is not available from every stroke association and doctors group.

Effect of Pink Noise on EEG and Memory Performance in Memory Task

Since 30% of survivors have sleep problems, has your doctor done ONE DAMN THING about it in the last 4 years? NO? So you don't have a functioning stroke doctor, do you?

Is your doctor suggesting either of these? Never mind, way too soon for your doctor to read, understand and implement these interventions. Maybe 50 years from now. Of course your doctor needs to get this testing done on stroke survivors if they are competent at all!

Effect of Pink Noise on EEG and Memory Performance in Memory Task

Abstract:

Recently, improvement of memory ability by listening noise in deep sleep has attracted extensive attention for its promising potential to prevent older adults from degrading cognitive function such as mild cognitive impairment and dementia. In particular, pink noise with 1/f-characteristics was frequently used to facilitate synchronization of neural oscillatory activities. However, the effect of pink noise on short-term memory task including memory encoding and recall during awake state has not been well investigated. We conducted a simple memory task consisting of memorization of ten fish names during which pink noise was presented and recalling them before and after mental arithmetic for seven healthy young males. Memory recall performance and amplitudes of electroencephalogram (EEG) for noise-added trials were compared with those for control trials without additive noise. The beta and gamma wave amplitudes in the noise-added trials for participants with higher memory performance in the noise-added trials than the control trials were larger than the amplitudes in the control trials by about 10 points, whereas the former amplitudes for participants with lower memory performance in the noise-added trials were smaller than the latter amplitudes. There is a possibility that pink noise could affect the memory ability through the enhancement of beta and gamma wave.
