Physicians’ standpoints for the use of music-based interventions in Slovenian health care system

SNC'21: SiNAPSA Neuroscience Conference ‘21, Ljubljana (and online), 23—25 September 2021, presentation

As part of the B-AIR project (Creative Europe), aimed at creating music programs for vulnerable groups, we conducted a study to gauge Slovenian physicians' interest in integrating music into healthcare. Preliminary findings indicated moderate interest, particularly in neurorehabilitation and chronic pain management. Some of the respondents expressed willingness to work in a task force expected to be created as one of the results of the study and help with further development of the domain. We refined our approach by surveying a broader medical audience, focusing on music's role in clinical practice and research in neurology and psychiatry. Our goal was to gain a deeper understanding of potential implementations and contribute to the advancement of music in diverse healthcare settings.
