1
00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:01,996
Marshak Savers program is a 

2
00:00:01,996 --> 00:00:04,218
longitudinal neurocognitive performance 

3
00:00:04,218 --> 00:00:06,440
in the ship . Sabers provides a service 

4
00:00:06,440 --> 00:00:08,496
member with a detailed assessment of 

5
00:00:08,496 --> 00:00:10,051
brain function as well as a 

6
00:00:10,051 --> 00:00:11,996
comprehensive intervention plan to 

7
00:00:11,996 --> 00:00:14,051
optimize brain performance . Service 

8
00:00:14,051 --> 00:00:15,996
members are first presented with a 

9
00:00:15,996 --> 00:00:18,107
qualitative survey to assess how they 

10
00:00:18,107 --> 00:00:18,020
perceive their own neurocognitive 

11
00:00:18,020 --> 00:00:19,798
function . Their neurocognitive 

12
00:00:19,798 --> 00:00:21,798
assessment tool is a computer based 

13
00:00:21,798 --> 00:00:23,798
program that analyzes a spectrum of 

14
00:00:23,798 --> 00:00:25,909
cognitive performance outputs such as 

15
00:00:25,909 --> 00:00:28,242
processing speed , memory and attention . 

16
00:00:28,242 --> 00:00:30,464
Q . E . E . G . Analyzes the electrical 

17
00:00:30,464 --> 00:00:32,710
activity of the brain . A cap with 19 

18
00:00:32,710 --> 00:00:34,877
electrodes is placed on the head and a 

19
00:00:34,877 --> 00:00:37,043
special conductive gel is used to fill 

20
00:00:37,043 --> 00:00:39,043
each electrode . Q . E . G measures 

21
00:00:39,043 --> 00:00:41,154
brave waves at different sites to map 

22
00:00:41,154 --> 00:00:43,266
brain function and identify potential 

23
00:00:43,266 --> 00:00:45,950
residual concussive effects . The data 

24
00:00:45,950 --> 00:00:48,061
are then transformed into a pictorial 

25
00:00:48,061 --> 00:00:50,061
representation of brain activity in 

26
00:00:50,061 --> 00:00:52,228
order to assess cognitive deficiency . 

27
00:00:52,228 --> 00:00:54,450
The sabers data are then interpreted by 

28
00:00:54,450 --> 00:00:56,617
a specialist provider and presented to 

29
00:00:56,617 --> 00:00:58,839
the service member . The provider works 

30
00:00:58,839 --> 00:00:58,370
with the service member to develop a 

31
00:00:58,370 --> 00:01:00,426
performance improvement intervention 

32
00:01:00,426 --> 00:01:02,648
plan . The performance plan may include 

33
00:01:02,648 --> 00:01:04,703
biofeedback training , neurofeedback 

34
00:01:04,703 --> 00:01:06,814
training or referral to other medical 

35
00:01:06,814 --> 00:01:08,537
or human performance providers 

36
00:01:08,537 --> 00:01:10,703
neurofeedback target specific areas of 

37
00:01:10,703 --> 00:01:12,592
the brain by presenting real time 

38
00:01:12,592 --> 00:01:14,814
feedback on brainwave activity based on 

39
00:01:14,814 --> 00:01:16,870
operate conditioning principles . We 

40
00:01:16,870 --> 00:01:18,814
can train up or down certain brain 

41
00:01:18,814 --> 00:01:20,814
waves frequencies to optimize brain 

42
00:01:20,814 --> 00:01:22,814
performance , cognitive performance 

43
00:01:22,814 --> 00:01:24,870
specialists use sabers data to drive 

44
00:01:24,870 --> 00:01:27,092
actionable coaching interventions . The 

45
00:01:27,092 --> 00:01:29,092
aim is to enhance awareness , track 

46
00:01:29,092 --> 00:01:31,037
changes in regulatory behavior and 

47
00:01:31,037 --> 00:01:31,030
improving operator's ability to gain 

48
00:01:31,030 --> 00:01:33,252
and maintain advantages in volatile and 

49
00:01:33,252 --> 00:01:35,363
unpredictable circumstances . Service 

50
00:01:35,363 --> 00:01:37,474
members receive a sabers reassessment 

51
00:01:37,474 --> 00:01:39,586
periodically to identify and document 

52
00:01:39,586 --> 00:01:41,308
documents update performance , 

53
00:01:41,308 --> 00:01:43,252
improvement strategies and prolong 

54
00:01:43,252 --> 00:01:43,740
careers Yeah .
