The results of the study suggest that a positive compared to neutral context improves individuals’ sensory gating abilities. Clinicians in clinical practice are encouraged to create positive emotional context to help people with comorbid dyspnea and anxiety symptoms improve their respiratory sensation during rehabilitation.

碩士 === 長庚大學 === 職能治療學系 === 105 === Respiration is an innate and unconscious process. However
respiratory sensory inputs do not always reach the higher cortices during
eupneic breathing, indicating “sensory gating” phenomena exists in the
central nervous system. When obstructed, the central nervous system
automatically adjusts respiration into a conscious pattern.
Inferior gate control might lower the connection between an
individual’s conscious respiration and actual respiratory difficulty, thus
producing misconception of having dyspnea and severely affecting
quality of life. While some studies have shown that negative emotional
context might evoke problems related to respiratory sensory gating,
empirical evidence regarding the effect of positive emotional context
remains scarce. Therefore, the current study, with respiratory-related
evoked potential (RREP) collected by electroencephalography, examined
healthy adults’ respiratory sensory gating abilities in positive and neutral
contexts.
The participants were 40 healthy adults (aged 23.8 ± 4.2 years),
examined with behavioral assessments and with the paired-occlusion
RREP trials in the positive and neutral contexts. The RREP and
behavioral data were analyzed with Paired-sample t-tests, Independentsample
t-tests, and Pearson correlation coefficients.
The results revealed that the participants had better respiratory
sensory gating ability in the positive context (S2/S1 ratio: 0.44 ± 0.2) than
in the neutral context (S2/S1 ratio: 0.59 ± 0.23). Similar results also
applied to the high-anxiety group (S2/S1 ratio: 0.54 ± 0.2 in the pleasant
context, and 0.77 ± 0.36 in the neutral context). Correlation analysis
indicated that the participants’ anxiety level and the S2/S1 ratio were
correlated at an intermediate level in the positive context (r = 0.41, p =
0.01), and also in the neutral context (r = 0.51, p = 0.01).
The results of the study suggest that a positive compared to neutral
context improves individuals’ sensory gating abilities. Clinicians in
clinical practice are encouraged to create positive emotional context to
help people with comorbid dyspnea and anxiety symptoms improve their
respiratory sensation during rehabilitation.
