Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the rehabilitation efficacy of music training in pediatric cochlear implants (CIs).Methods The 14 subjects were divided into the training and control groups.The age of the training group was 5 to 8 years old,with an average of 6.12±1.46.The age of the control group was 5 to 7 years old,with the average of 5.86±0.90.The subjects in the training group received speech rehabilitation training together with music training,while those in the control group only received speech rehabilitation training.We performed an analysis to compare the music perception,speech perception,mental state,and the quality of life between the two groups before and after training.Results For training group,the score of social anxiety scale for children(SASC) was 11± 3.27 before training,and 15.71±1.89 after training;the score of note discriminate test was 30.86±13.61 before training,and 42.29± 13.24 after training.For control group,the scores of SASC was 12.71±2.93 before training,and 14.57±3.51 after training;the pre-training score of note discriminate test was 33.14±11.48,and post-training score was 36.57± 10.44.After training,the scores of the two test items in training group were significantly higher than those in control group (P<0.05).Conclusion Not only does music training promote music and speech perception in pediatric CIs,it also has proved to be an effective psychological construct for the hearing-impaired children that helps develop self-confidence and improve social status.Moreover,children's improvement in hearing and emotional well-being helps alleviate the psychological stress and anxiety experienced by the children's parents.
