{"title":"Music therapy for depression: is it music to our ears?","authors":"Tessa Lomax","doi":"10.1192/bja.2023.67","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1192/bja.2023.67","url":null,"abstract":"Music therapy has been a recognised form of therapy for mental illness for many years. This commentary on a Cochrane Review on music therapy for depression sheds light on the evidence. It aims to give further clinical context to the findings, to help guide practice and examine music therapy as an evidence-based practice. The review compares music therapy plus ‘treatment as usual’ (TAU) with TAU alone, music therapy with psychological therapy, and ‘active’ with ‘receptive’ music therapy (the two main types of music therapy). The review points to music therapy being beneficial for people with depression when combined with TAU (versus TAU alone) in the short term, as well as improving anxiety and functioning. We need more evidence looking at longer-term outcomes, comparing music therapy with psychological therapies and comparing different forms of music therapy.","PeriodicalId":9336,"journal":{"name":"BJPsych Advances","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-02-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140438626","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Complementing the perspective of the article, it advocates an approach that does not see the causal mechanism of disorder-related behaviour in terms of an exclusive disjunction between the effects of the individual patient's own agency or manifestations of the illness. When reduced agency becomes part of the person's self-conception, passivity no longer means behaviour that is alien to their ‘genuine self’. Relatedly, the requirement that the patient's self-conception be validated raises some questions regarding its therapeutic constraints.","PeriodicalId":9336,"journal":{"name":"BJPsych Advances","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-01-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140489868","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Curtice","doi":"10.1192/bja.2023.66","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1192/bja.2023.66","url":null,"abstract":"\u0000 The interface between the Mental Health Act 1983 (MHA) and the Mental Capacity Act 2005 (MCA) can throw up complex issues. This article reviews a Court of Protection case that considered this interface specifically in the context of physical healthcare for a patient detained under the MHA. The court analysis also included consideration of the European Convention on Human Rights, the Mental Health Units (Use of Force) Act 2018 and the concept of residual liberty. The judgment describes principles to be applied when considering whether non-consensual physical health treatment for detained patients could result in a further deprivation of liberty. Discussion of other Court of Protection cases considers the issue of communication during a capacity assessment, the MHA/MCA interface in obstetric cases and what test to apply in determining whether a patient could be detained under the MHA. Such principles and guidance are helpful in clinical practice for healthcare professionals who deal with the MHA/MCA interface.","PeriodicalId":9336,"journal":{"name":"BJPsych Advances","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2024-01-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139527513","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
