Overview

Narrative review summarizes music interventions' impacts on auditory and non-auditory skills in children with hearing loss, suggesting benefits.

Key Points

  • This review aims to summarize evidence on the use of music-based interventions in children with hearing loss.
  • Narrative review of literature focusing on pediatric cochlear implant and hearing aid users.
  • Categorized studies into musical auditory perception, musical training, and music therapy.
  • Examined the outcomes related to auditory and non-auditory skills.
  • Children with hearing loss show limitations in pitch and timbre perception, while rhythmic abilities are relatively better preserved.
  • Musical training, especially rhythmic-focused, improves auditory perception and cognitive skills.
  • Music therapy indicates potential benefits for emotional regulation and social interaction, though literature is limited.
