Abstract

Background: Despite the known benefits of art therapy, there are a limited number of studies on art therapy for tic disorders. This pilot randomised controlled study investigated effects of art as a relaxation technique for tic disorders.

Methods: Twenty-two children aged 7-9 years were randomly allocated to art intervention (n= 11) and control (n= 11) groups. Pre- and post-test measurements included the Yale Global Tic Severity Scale (YGTSS), Heart Rate Variability (HRV), and Hassles Scale for Children (HSC).

Results: Art as relaxation significantly decreased the YGTSS total score, motor tic frequency, motor tic intensity, motor tic complexity, vocal tic complexity, and total daily stressors compared to the control group. The intervention group showed significantly greater physiological relaxation, as indicated by increases in HRV parameters.

Conclusions: Art appears to be an effective relaxation technique for tic disorders. Extensive research is necessary for rigorous examination of its effectiveness.

艺术作为抽动障碍的放松:一项先导随机对照研究。

背景:尽管艺术疗法的好处是众所周知的，但艺术疗法治疗抽动障碍的研究数量有限。这项试点随机对照研究调查了艺术作为一种放松技术对抽动障碍的影响。方法:将22名7 ~ 9岁儿童随机分为艺术干预组(n= 11)和对照组(n= 11)。测试前和测试后测量包括耶鲁全球抽搐严重程度量表(YGTSS)、心率变异性(HRV)和儿童头痛量表(HSC)。结果:与对照组相比，艺术放松疗法显著降低了YGTSS总分、运动抽动频率、运动抽动强度、运动抽动复杂性、声音抽动复杂性和总日常压力源。干预组表现出明显更大的生理松弛，HRV参数增加。结论:艺术似乎是一种有效的放松抽动障碍的技术。为了严格检验其有效性，有必要进行广泛的研究。
