Cognitive Bandwidth Maintenance

Meaning

Cognitive Bandwidth Maintenance is the clinical strategy focused on preserving and optimizing the brain’s capacity for complex information processing, sustained attention, and executive function, particularly in the face of physiological or psychological stressors. This concept emphasizes the brain’s finite metabolic and functional reserve, viewing its optimal state as a high-capacity system that must be actively managed. The goal is to ensure neuronal efficiency and resilience against age-related decline or burnout.
