Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The study aims to analyse the impact of music therapy-based treatment on the comfort and well-being of patients with acquired brain injury (ABI). To achieve this objective, it is proposed to validate and implement a music therapy-based assessment and treatment protocol. The protocol will be tested in a pilot sample to improve adaptation to the disease and promote integration with the usual health measures of patients with ABI. Implementing a group treatment programme based on music therapy applied to patients with ABI.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

No Intervention: Control Group

Patients who receive the treatment program, will previously constitute their own control group (waiting list control group).

Group Type NO_INTERVENTION

No interventions assigned to this group

Experimental group

Patients admitted to the brain injury unit will participate in a music therapy protocol starting one week after admission. Prior to the group session, three evaluations will be conducted over six days. Post-treatment assessments will also be conducted to enable longitudinal evaluation of the patient over the course of a week.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

MERAKI_ABI

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

The music therapy session will focus on the themes of reidentification and involvement. The aim is to accompany the patient during the illness process, allowing them to express their emotional state, relate to music, promote listening and communication between family members, help and value preserved abilities, and promote personal involvement in the rehabilitation process.

The session will work with songs, taking into account musical preferences.
