“…Estudios llevados a cabo por Camacho, et al (7) evidencian la necesidad de adaptación de los planes educativos en el Grado de Enfermería en cuanto a la reorientación y ampliación de ciertas asignaturas, como es el caso de la formación en lengua inglesa para enfermeros, de manera que se cumplan las necesidades, motivaciones y demandas académicas de los estudiantes para poder alcanzar el nivel de dominio exigido para superar sus estudios de Grado de manera exitosa. En este sentido, al igual que propone Camacho (7) , Johanessen y Garvik (8) o Ing-Randolph (9) , la reorientación de los planes educativos para posibilitar la inclusión de la musicoterapia como disciplina a estudiar dentro del Grado en Enfermería, permitiría la creación de nuevos perfiles competenciales para los alumnos, permitiendo con ello ampliar su formación profesional para un mercado laboral cada vez más exigente y especializado.…”

Nº 55 Julio 2019Página 455 ORIGINALES La musicoterapia como asignatura en los estudios de grado en enfermería Introducción: La musicoterapia se entiende por el uso de la música o sus elementos con fines terapéuticos. Su empleo en la enfermería es escaso más allá del uso de la intervención NIC 4400. Objetivo: Conocer y analizar el grado de aceptación por parte de los estudiantes de enfermería ante la posible inclusión de la musicoterapia como asignatura en los programas educativos de los estudios de Grado en Enfermería. Método: Se ha realizado un estudio observacional descriptivo de corte transversal con una muestra n=346 participantes. Resultados: Los resultados muestran que el 93,93% de los alumnos sí incluirían la musicoterapia como una asignatura Optativa en los estudios de Grado en Enfermería, haciendo uso de ella en su futuro profesional. ABSTRACT:Introduction: Music therapy is understood by the use of music or its elements for therapeutic purposes. Its use in nursing is scarce beyond the use of the NIC 4400 intervention. Objective:The research aims to know and analyze the degree of acceptance by nursing students regarding the possible inclusion of music therapy as a subject in the educational programs of the Nursing Degree studies. Method: A cross-sectional, observational, descriptive study was carried out with a sample of n=346 participants. Enfermería GlobalNº 55 Julio 2019 Página 456 Conclusion:The results show that 93.93% of the students did include music therapy as an optional subject in Nursing Degree studies, making use of it in their professional future.

“…The number of participants in each group has to be determined carefully. In a systematic literature review, Ing-Randolph et al [ 32 ] suggest that group size matters with music interventions addressing certain stages of dementia-associated anxiety. Although Yalom [ 33 ] states that a group consisting of fewer than five members results in a decrease in member interaction, this is not the case when working with HD-patients where smaller groups are preferable [ 31 ].…”

Music therapy in Huntington’s disease: a protocol for a multi-center randomized controlled trial

et al. 2016

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

BackgroundHuntington’s disease is a progressive, neurodegenerative disease with autosomal dominant inheritance, characterized by motor disturbances, cognitive decline and behavioral and psychological symptoms. Since there is no cure, all treatment is aimed at improving quality of life. Music therapy is a non-pharmacological intervention, aiming to improve the quality of life, but its use and efficacy in patients with Huntington’s disease has hardly been studied.In this article, a protocol is described to study the effects of music therapy in comparison with a control intervention to improve quality of life through stimulating expressive and communicative skills. By targeting these skills we assume that the social-cognitive functioning will improve, leading to a reduction in behavioral problems, resulting in an overall improvement of the quality of life in patients with Huntington’s disease.Methods/DesignThe study is designed as a multi-center single-blind randomised controlled intervention trial. Sixty patients will be randomised using centre-stratified block-permuted randomisation. Patients will be recruited from four long-term care facilities specialized in Huntington’s disease-care in The Netherlands.The outcome measure to assess changes in expressive and communication skills is the Behaviour Observation Scale Huntington and changes in behavior will be assessed by the Problem Behaviour Assesment-short version and by the BOSH. Measurements take place at baseline, then 8, 16 (end of intervention) and 12 weeks after the last intervention (follow-up).DiscussionThis randomized controlled study will provide greater insight into the effectiveness of music therapy on activities of daily living, social-cognitive functioning and behavior problems by improving expressive and communication skills, thus leading to a better quality of life for patients with Huntington’s disease.Trial registrationNetherlands Trial Register: NTR4904, registration date Nov. 15, 2014.

“…Systematic reviews [17][18][19][20][21][22][23] focused on the effects on music interventions on patients with dementia suggest that these interventions seem to have a positive effect on some symptoms, such as depression [17,19,21], anxiety [17,21,22] and behavioural problems [17][18][19]21] while the findings concerning agitation/aggression are inconsistent [19,20]. 4 Moreover, there is not enough evidence to support the efficacy of these interventions on ADL [17].…”

“…Music and physical exercise interventions were chosen since there is some evidence that music interventions alleviate NPS [17][18][19]21,22] and physical exercise has been suggested to improve ADL [24,26] and perhaps some NPS [25,28,29,31]. Moreover, both interventions are practicable while needing only moderate time and personnel resources and are feasible to implement in inpatient settings.…”

Background: Increasing attention is focusing on psychosocial interventions for treating patients with dementia. Aims: This observational intervention study investigated the impact of physical exercise and music interventions among patients with dementia on an acute psychogeriatric ward. Materials and method: The data were collected during February 2009-December 2010 (n=89; treatment as usual) and during April 2011-March 2013 (n=86; treatment as usual with physical exercise, e.g. balance, flexibility, strength training and music interventions, e.g. singing, listening to music and playing instruments). The primary outcome measure was the Neuropsychiatric Inventory and the secondary outcome measures were the Alzheimer's Disease Cooperative Study-Activities of Daily Living, the Barthel Index and the Mini Mental State Examination. Results: In both groups, neuropsychiatric symptoms decreased (p<0.001) but daily functioning deteriorated (p<0.001). No significant between-group differences for either outcome variable were found. Based on linear mixed models fewer exercise sessions associated with more severe symptoms (p=0.030), and the time variable (admission/discharge) with a decline in the level of neuropsychiatric symptoms (p<0.001). Moreover, female gender (p=0.026) and more exercise sessions (p=0.039) associated with an increased level of functioning (p=0.031) and the time variable (admission/discharge) with a drop in the level of functioning during hospitalization (p<0.001). Conclusion: Although no differences were found between the study groups, analysis within the intervention group suggest that physical exercise may have some positive effects for both neuropsychiatric symptoms and the level of functioning in some patients with dementia while no positive effects regarding music interventions were found.
