Description
Summary:In the treatment of bronchial asthma (BA), an integrated approach is used that includes both drugs and alternative methods that infl uence the psycho- emotional state of the patient. In this regard, one of the most powerful methods of psycho- emotional infl uence on a person is musical infl uence. The aim of the research is to study the eff ectiveness of infl uence of audio signals of diff erent amplitude- frequency range on the central mechanisms of regulation of ventilatory capacity of bronchi of patients with asthma. Material and methods. Twenty-fi ve children between the ages of 9 and 14 with clinically diagnosed BA participated in the study. Three melodies with diff erent component composition were used. Their amplitude- frequency characteristics were analyzed using the Matlab environment. The sound energy fraction of the studied musical compositions in one-third octave frequency bands throughout the duration of the audio signal was calculated. Statistical processing of the data was performed using IBM SPSS Statistics software. Results. The results of the study indicate that the most eff ective musical infl uence is provided by the audio excerpt from The Magic Flute by W. A. Mozart. It was found that the main spirographic indicators of bronchopulmonary obstruction increase under the infl uence of music, and correspondingly there are changes in the integral characteristics of bioelectrical activity of the brain. Conclusion. The results of the study show reliable normalization of spirography indicators in children with bronchial asthma under the infl uence of selected musical melodies of a certain frequency. Eff ectiveness of sound infl uence on central regulation mechanisms of bronchial ventilatory capacity can be used for preventive and therapeutic purposes.
