We extend the framework of forward and reverse processes commonly utilized in the derivation and analysis of the nonequilibrium work relations to thermodynamic processes with repeated discrete feedback. Within this framework, we derive a generalization of the detailed fluctuation theorem, which is modified by the addition of a term that quantifies the change in uncertainty about the microscopic state of the system upon making measurements of physical observables during feedback. As an application, we extend two nonequilibrium work relations: the nonequilibrium work fluctuation theorem and the relative-entropy work relation.
