Abstract:
Objective:To understand whether or not biofeedback therapy(BT)and cue- exposure therapy(CET)could decrease craving and heroin-related cue reactivity in abstinent heroin dependents.Methods:Adopting stratified sampling means,60 abstinent heroin dependents whose craving increased after cue exposed,were allocated to experiment group(n=36)and control group(n=24).The control group dependents received assistance and education.Beside the assistance and education,the experiment group also received 12 times combination therapies of BT and CET.Results:After therapies,the experiment group dependents' craving,EMG and skin conductance(SC)were all decreased compared with control group before cue exposures and after cue exposures[Before cue exposures,the indexes were:craving(3.06±7.26)mm vs.(22.32±20.26)mm;EMG(8.52±4.23)μV vs.(12.06±5.17)μV,SC(2.14±1.43)μS vs.(4.61±2.24)μS.After cue exposures the indexes were:craving(6.97±10.30)mm vs.(33.14±25.40)mm,MEG(8.72±4.31)μV vs.(14.79±5.86)μV,SC(2.15±1.33)μS vs.(4.49±2.59)μS;Ps≤0.01.Conclusion:The combination of biofeedback therapy and cue-exposure therapy could decrease the dependents' craving and cue reactivity sensitivity.
