音乐已被证明对许多精神疾病有效，包括改善睡眠质量。进行了一项试点研究，以研究印度古典音乐对抑郁症患者睡眠质量的影响。将50名在DSM-IV上诊断为重度抑郁症的个体连续分为两组。其中一组接受了带有选定raagas的音乐，而另一组则接受了为期一个月的催眠药物治疗。采用MADRS和PSQI量表测量抑郁症状和睡眠质量的变化。PSQI和MADRS分数都随着音乐而提高。音乐对分数的改善与催眠药物相当，并持续超过治疗期。我们的结论是，音乐在改善抑郁症患者的睡眠质量方面与催眠药物相当，因此可以作为抑郁症管理的一种有用的辅助手段。
Music has been shown to be effective in a number of psychiatric conditions, including improving the quality of sleep. A pilot study was carried out to study the effect of Indian classical music on the quality of sleep in individuals with depression. Fifty individuals diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder on DSM-IV were consecutively allocated into two groups. One group received music with selected raagas, while the other group was treated with hypnotic medications for a month. The changes in depressive symptoms and sleep quality were measured on MADRS and PSQI. Both PSQI and MADRS scores improved with music. Improvement in scores with music was comparable to hypnotic medications and persisted beyond the treatment period. We conclude that music is comparable to hypnotic medication in improving quality of sleep in depressed patients and can thus act as a useful adjunct in the management of depression.
