Objective: To explore the therapeutic value of cognitive function training combined with music therapy in elderly patients with cognitive impairment. Methods From August 2021 to August 2022, 94 elderly patients with cognitive impairment in our hospital were randomly divided into experimental group (47 cases, using cognitive function training+music therapy) and control group (47 cases, using cognitive function training). MMSE score, MoCA score, HAMA score and HAMD score were compared between the two groups before and after treatment. Results Before treatment, there was no difference in the scores between the groups, that is, P>0.05; After treatment, the MMSE score (27.84 ± 2.11) and MoCA score (27.68 ± 1.75) of the experimental group were higher than those of the control group (P<0.05); After treatment, HAMA score (5.84 ± 1.25) and HAMD score (15.19 ± 2.14) in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion The combined use of cognitive function training and music therapy in the clinical treatment of elderly patients with cognitive dysfunction has a definite effect, can significantly improve the cognitive function of patients, and is worth promoting.
