CACA guidelines for music-based interventions in oncology
摘要
As growing evidence from basic research and applied research has supported the use of music as a means of mental healing and rehabilitation, spanning its mechanisms, neural correlates, and its clinical application, the systematic use of music as a complementary and alternative intervention is gaining recognition in China within fields such as mental health, special education, rehabilitation, and oncology. These guidelines review the latest research on the application of music-based interventions in oncology, synthesizing current practices. With the aim of ensuring the accessibility and efficacy of these music-based interventions for cancer patients and their families, the paper places a particular focus on defining different intervention categories, providing recommendations for their application, outlining standard procedures, and establishing a hierarchical framework for music-based interventions in oncology.
