There are various nonpharmacological therapies available for elderly people with dementia, and these can improve quality of life and the behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD) that appear throughout the progression of the disease. Since a substantial number of effects have been reported for music therapy, we focused on this nonpharmacological intervention. Generally, musical therapy is provided collectively in facilities. However, the music used in this context may not consider the preferences and music abilities of each person. Therefore, in this study we created made-to-order music CDs that accounted for each participant's musical preferences and abilities. Utilizing the CDs, we conducted an intervention study of music therapy using a video phone (Skype) that elderly people with dementia can use at home. An advantage of conducting music therapy for individuals with dementia using a video phone is that those who have difficulty going to the hospital or participating in dementia-related therapy groups can participate in therapy in a familiar place. The results of this intervention showed that participants demonstrated signs of improvement as measured by the smile degree(Smile scan)and Behavior Pathology in Alzheimer's Disease (BEHAVE-AD) scale.
对于患有痴呆症的老年人，有多种非药物疗法可供选择，这些疗法可以提高生活质量，并改善在疾病进展过程中出现的痴呆症行为和心理症状（BPSD）。由于音乐疗法已被报道有大量效果，我们将重点放在这种非药物干预上。一般来说，音乐疗法在机构中集体进行。然而，在这种情况下使用的音乐可能没有考虑到每个人的喜好和音乐能力。因此，在本研究中，我们制作了定制音乐CD，其中考虑了每个参与者的音乐偏好和能力。利用这些CD，我们使用视频电话（Skype）对痴呆症老年人进行了音乐疗法干预研究，他们可以在家中使用该视频电话。使用视频电话为痴呆症患者进行音乐疗法的一个优点是，那些难以前往医院或参加与痴呆症相关治疗小组的人可以在熟悉的地方参加治疗。该干预结果表明，通过微笑程度（微笑扫描）和阿尔茨海默病行为病理学（BEHAVE-AD）量表测量，参与者表现出改善迹象。
