About

In recent years, especially in developed countries, FMS has emerged as a serious social problem by decreasing labour force and quality of life. Especially clinicians have started to consider cognitive dysfunction in FMS as a separate clinical condition. In the light of the data obtained, can say that cognitive dysfunction increases in the presence of depression, anxiety, sleep disorders, endocrine imbalances and pain.

Neuroscience and technological advances make it possible to meet the demand for care and improve the quality of stimulation by enabling the automation of many cognitive training procedures, improving patient record reliability and optimising performance of disability functions. The recently implemented RehaCom and HeadApp programmes (Schuhfried, Austria). excellent results have been reported in clinical practice with no significant adverse effects.

This study will investigate the effectiveness of a cognitive rehabilitation programme using computer software in female patients with fibromyalgia.
