Poster Abstract
Objective
To further assess the efficacy of music-based interventions in patients with traumatic brain injury and its therapeutic application to cognitive, motor and sensory deficits due to neurological sequalae
Introduction
- Traumatic brain injury is a direct result of an external force disabling neurological and neurophysiological functioning
- Sensory, motor, emotional, language and cognitive functioning impaired
- Treatment is usually cognitive remediation therapy (CR)
- In correspondence, music enhances cognitive performance via neural plasticity
- Current literature shows preliminary evidence of the positive results of music in parallel with CR
