老年人睡眠功能的改变与衰老过程有关。对老年人进行的主观睡眠调查通常显示，他们对睡眠的数量和质量普遍不满意。为了减轻老年人的睡眠问题而广泛使用镇静催眠药物，这可能是基于医生的一些未经检验的假设。当其他交流方式失败时，音乐引起了阿尔茨海默型老年痴呆症（SDAT）受试者的强烈反应。宁静的音乐已被证明可以减轻焦虑，让人们放松。本研究探讨音乐作为辅助或替代镇静催眠药物诱导睡眠的“健康”老年受试者和SDAT患者的睡眠行为评估表的设计和使用的护士在午夜轮班。对所有四组的睡眠时间进行方差分析，得出睡眠时间和音乐之间的显着关系。对照组和实验组SDAT之间的配对比较显示，音乐的使用与有效睡眠的小时数之间存在显着关系。对控制组和实验组“健康”老年人的睡眠小时数进行配对比较，结果显示两者之间没有显著关系。
Alteration in sleep function of the elderly is associated with the aging process. Subjective sleep surveys of the elderly commonly reveal a general dissatisfaction with the quantity and quality of sleep. The widespread utilization of sedative-hypnotic drugs in order to alleviate the sleeping complaints of the elderly probably rests on some untested assumptions made by physicians. Music has elicited some strong responses from subjects with Senile Dementia of the Alzheimer Type (SDAT), when other means of communication has failed. Music of a serene nature has been shown to lessen anxiety and allow individuals to relax. This study investigates music as an adjunct or alternative to sedative-hypnotic drugs in inducing sleep in “healthy” elderly subjects and patients with SDAT A behavioral assessment chart of sleeping behavior was designed and utilized by nurses on the midnight shift. Combined analysis of variance for the number of hours asleep for all four groups yielded a significant relationship between the numbers of hours asleep and music. A paired comparison between control and experimental SDAT disclosed a significant relationship between the use of music and the number of hours of productive sleep. A paired comparison of the number of hours asleep between control and experimental “healthy” elderly revealed no significant relationship.
