Description
Summary:Elderly people have sleeping disorder problems which can be occurred frequently. This is a significant public health issue because sleeping disorder leads to cause depression, diabetes, cardiovascular, Alzheimer’s disease. Currently, music therapy might be a good choice instead of western medicines for the treatment of a sleeping disorder. This short communication describes the background of sleeping disorder, music therapy, and its research progress as well as the future development. A simple systematic search of publications in PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and google search without language restriction is performed. Because of the little finding on the music therapy for sleep disorders in present literature, therefore, there is a short communication written by some literature reviews before starting a novel study of sleeping disorders for elderly people.
