Dementia, meta-analysis, music therapy, disruptive behaviorsAbstract
To ascertain which actions, therapists, and participant characteristics had more potent and perceptible effects, a meta-analysis of illegal research on the impact of music rehabilitation on disorderly behaviors, nervousness levels, miserable emotions, with cognitive performance in dementia patients could be conducted. The researchwas initially a meta-analysis of all the randomized criminal trials uncovered in an investigation about over the last 15 years music therapy has been used with dementia patients. Music therapy's overall impact on outcome measures was assessed by a meta-analysis. The disruptive behaviors of dementia patients were relatively significantly reduced, and music therapy barely impacted cognitive performance. Additionally, it showed little effect on anxiety and depressive feelings. Several times every week, group music therapy is offered to help people with disruptive behaviors, stress, and depression emotions.
