Proposal for intervention of music therapy applied in mental health.
Keywords:
Schizophrenia, major depressive, musicotherapy, EEG, negative symptomsAbstract
Over time, psychiatric disorders have become a public health problem that is increasing. After the pandemic, the numbers skyrocketed around the world, triggering a health crisis that affects people of all ages. The treatment of mental health patients requires, in addition to specific drugs, other non-pharmacological techniques that have been developed in recent years. Music therapy has been positioning itself as a profession that generates a positive impact on psychiatric disorders, which usually present with depression, insomnia, anhedonia, apathy and anxiety, facilitating the approach of these symptoms as a nonpharmacological treatment. A proposal for a music therapy intervention in the field of mental health is presented, aimed at conducting future research on the impact of music therapy on the negative symptoms of patients with major depression and schizophrenia who attend the Hospital de San Pau in Barcelona. To this end, a theoretical justification has been proposed on the symptoms of MCD (serious mental disorder) and the analysis of various investigations that show how music therapy favors positive moods, reduces anxiety, and improves the patient's quality of life. It is intended to alternate high-precision qualitative and quantitative instruments (EEG) to demonstrate the expected significant changes produced by music therapy and, thereby, strengthen the data to provide more scientific evidence of the effects of music therapy.
