Music Therapy During Dental Procedures in Adults With Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities
2026年9月14日 更新者：Adela Planerova、University of Rochester
Music Therapy to Improve Dental Procedure Tolerance and Reduce Distress in Adults With Intellectual and Developmental Differences
Adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities may experience behavioral distress, sensory sensitivity, and difficulty tolerating dental procedures.
This pilot randomized controlled trial will compare live music therapy delivered by a board certified music therapist with recorded music during non emergency dental procedures performed under local anesthesia.
Approximately 50 participants will be enrolled to obtain 40 evaluable participants randomized in a 1:1 ratio.
The study will evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of live music therapy and its preliminary effects on behavioral cooperation, procedural distress, physiological responses, completion of dental treatment without escalation to sedation, and procedure duration.

实验性的：Live Music Therapy
Participants assigned to this arm will receive live music therapy delivered by a board certified music therapist during a scheduled non emergency dental procedure performed under local anesthesia.
The intervention may include passive music listening, active music listening, guided breathing synchronized with music, sung procedural cues, live singing with guitar accompaniment, improvisation, tempo entrainment to breathing or heart rate, and participant directed instrument playing or singing.
The intervention will be individualized according to participant preferences, responsiveness, and functional abilities.
Sessions will be audio recorded to support intervention fidelity and characterization.
|
Live music therapy will be delivered by a board certified music therapist before, during, and after the dental procedure as appropriate.
Techniques may include live singing with guitar accompaniment, improvisation, music entrainment to breathing or heart rate, guided breathing synchronized with music, sung procedural cues, and participant engagement through instrument playing, singing, or vocal or instrumental improvisation.
The intervention will be adapted in real time based on the participant's preferences, behavioral responses, physiological cues, and functional abilities.

Mean Total Caregiver Acceptability Questionnaire Score After the Dental Procedure
大体时间：Immediately after the dental procedure
|
Caregiver reported acceptability is assessed using a 10 item questionnaire administered after the dental procedure.
Each item is scored from 1 to 5. Items 1 through 9 range from 1, Not at all, to 5, Very much.
Item 10 ranges from 1, Definitely no, to 5, Definitely yes.
The 10 item scores are summed to produce a total score ranging from 10 to 50.
Higher total scores indicate greater caregiver reported acceptability and perceived benefit of the music intervention.
The outcome is the mean total score across caregiver respondents.

Mean Total Categorical Rating Scale Score During the Dental Procedure
大体时间：During administration of local anesthesia and throughout the dental procedure
|
Procedural behavior and distress are assessed using the Categorical Rating Scale, which includes four domains: crying, cooperation, apprehension, and sleep.
Each domain is scored from 1 to 4. For crying, scores range from 1, screaming, to 4, no crying.
For cooperation, scores range from 1, violently resisting or disrupting treatment, to 4, no movement.
For apprehension, scores range from 1, hysterical and disobeying instructions, to 4, calm, relaxed, and following instructions.
For sleep, scores range from 1, fully awake, to 4, sound asleep.
Scores for the four domains are summed at each assessment to produce a total score ranging from 4 to 16.
When multiple assessments are obtained during the procedure, total scores are averaged across assessment time points to generate one procedure level score for each participant.
The outcome is the mean procedure level total score for each treatment group.
