Music therapy<br />

Music therapy + standard treatment (ST) vs. ST<br />

Music therapy as a complement to standard treatment is superior to ST only<br />

<strong>in</strong> the medium term with respect to the improvement of the global state (n =<br />

72, RR = 0.10; 95% CI between 0.03 to 0.31) 193 .<br />

In an <strong>in</strong>tervention of less than 20 sessions, no significant differences<br />

are found <strong>in</strong> favour of music therapy with respect to the mental state <strong>in</strong> the<br />

medium term (n = 69); average f<strong>in</strong>al score <strong>in</strong> the PANSS scale, WMD =<br />

-0.36; 95% CI: between -0.85 and 0.12) 194 ; however, when the <strong>in</strong>tervention<br />

<strong>in</strong>cludes more than 20 sessions, there are differences <strong>in</strong> favour of music<br />

therapy (1 RCT; n = 70; average f<strong>in</strong>al score <strong>in</strong> the BPRS scale, WMD =<br />

-1.25; 95% CI: between -1.77 and -0.73) 193 .<br />

Music therapy favours the improvement of negative symptoms (3<br />

RCTs, n = 180); average f<strong>in</strong>al score <strong>in</strong> the SANS scale (WMD = -0.86, 95%<br />

CI: between -1.17 and -0.55) 193,195,196 .<br />

There is no improvement of social function<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> the music therapy<br />

group when 20 or more sessions are applied (1 RCT; n = 70; average f<strong>in</strong>al<br />

score <strong>in</strong> the SDSI scale, WMD = -0.78; 95% CI: between -1.27 and -0.28) 193 .<br />

No differences are found <strong>in</strong> favour of music therapy with respect to the<br />

patient’s satisfaction <strong>in</strong> the medium term (less than 20 sessions) ( 1 RCT; n<br />

= 69; average score of the CSQ scale, WMD = 0.32; 95% CI: between -0.16<br />

and 0.80) 194 .<br />

Music therapy does not improve the quality of life (measured with the<br />

SPG) with an <strong>in</strong>tervention of less than 20 sessions (1 RCT; n = 31; WMD<br />

= 0.05; 95% CI between -0.66 and 0.75) when compared with ST alone 196 .<br />

RCT (1-)<br />

RCT (1-)<br />

Art therapy<br />

The mental state measured with the SANS scale slightly improved <strong>in</strong> favour<br />

of the art therapy group (n = 73; 1 RCT; WMD = -2.3; 95% CI: between<br />

-4.10 and -0.5) 198 .<br />

Social function<strong>in</strong>g (measured with the SFS scale) <strong>in</strong> the short term, did<br />

not show any clear differences between the groups <strong>in</strong> f<strong>in</strong>al scores (n = 70; 1<br />

RCT; WMD = 7.20; 95% CI: between -2.53 and 16.93); and quality of life,<br />

measured with the Perc Qol scale, did not <strong>in</strong>dicate the effects of art therapy<br />

(n = 74; 1 RCT; WMD = 0.1; 95% CI: between -2.7 and 0.47) 198 .<br />

Music therapy produces a positive effect on the improvement of the negative symptoms<br />

of people with schizophrenia 193,195,196 .<br />

<strong>Interventions</strong> of music therapy with more than 20 sessions improve the mental state and<br />

social function<strong>in</strong>g of people with schizophrenia 193 .<br />
