Biofeedback

Device-assisted mind-body training that helps patients observe and regulate heart rate, breathing, muscle tension, brainwave patterns, skin conductance, or other physiologic signals; in cancer care it is mainly supportive for stress, anxiety, pain, CIPN, sleep, fatigue, menopausal symptoms, and quality of life. Biofeedback uses sensors and real-time visual, auditory.
