Abstract

This study looked at the effect of group music therapy on dementia patients' levels of feelings of depression and anxiety. Quasi-experiment was carried out (N = 121) in which patients were randomly divided into a control (N = 61) and an experimental group (N = 60). Following a six-weeks, twelve-sessions trial involving both passive and active music therapy, it was discovered that the music group therapy intervention decreased the anxiety and depression levels of dementia patients in the experimental group as compared to the control group, which did not receive any music therapy. It was also noted that after three months of follow-up, participants in the experimental group still maintained a low level of anxiety and depression, but the control group's level remained high, therefore, substantiating the effect of music in lowering anxiety and depression among older ones. We urge the nursing descipline, medical professionals, carers, and care homes to include music therapy in the care they provide for patients with dementia.

团体音乐疗法如何帮助老年痴呆症患者消除焦虑和抑郁?一项准实验调查
本研究探讨了小组音乐疗法对痴呆症患者抑郁和焦虑情绪水平的影响。研究人员将患者随机分为对照组(61 人)和实验组(60 人),进行了准实验(121 人)。经过为期六周、共 12 个疗程的试验(包括被动和主动音乐疗法)后发现,与未接受任何音乐疗法的对照组相比,音乐小组疗法干预降低了实验组痴呆症患者的焦虑和抑郁水平。我们还注意到,经过三个月的随访,实验组参与者的焦虑和抑郁水平仍然较低,但对照组的焦虑和抑郁水平仍然较高,因此证实了音乐在降低老年人焦虑和抑郁方面的效果。我们呼吁护理部门、医疗专业人员、护理人员和护理院将音乐疗法纳入他们为痴呆症患者提供的护理中。
