| Abstract | "This volume presents the current state of knowledge on the practice of medical music therapy. This includes working with patients in various medical units, during diverse procedures, with various medical diseases and disorders, and in addressing physical as well as emotional, social, cognitive, and/or spiritual needs. Included are chapters on the following populations or conditions: oncology, pain management, surgical patients, HIV/AIDS patients, cardiac patients, burn patients, transplant patients, orthopedics, neurology, intensive care units, ventilator-dependent patients, obstetrics, hospice, palliative care, and support groups. The information presented is based on clinical expertise, along with a comprehensive and critical review of all relevant clinical and research writings. Practical guidelines are provided for implementing receptive, improvisational, re-creative, and compositional methods of music therapy with each client group." -- Publisher's website. |
