“…This scope review allowed the mapping of scientific knowledge about the therapeutic use of percussion instruments such as membranophones in people over 18 years of age in the health context. The healing and restorative power of music can be attributed to the ubiquitous social qualities in consuming and making music, which are essential for life course development, particularly for those who appreciate music ( 20 , 31 ) .…”

Objective: To map scientific knowledge about the use of percussion instruments in music therapy in individuals over 18 years of age in the health context. Method: Scope review with search strategy implemented in September 2021, in 13 databases, using indexed descriptors and keywords. Studies on the use of membranophones for care of people over 18 years of age were included. Studies with the participation of pregnant women, psychiatric patients (schizophrenia, psychosis, addiction), or people with hearing impairment, and journal editorials were excluded. The selection process was carried out by two independent researchers. Results: Thirteen studies were included and the results showed that the membranophones have a positive impact on the physical, psychological, and social health of people in different care environments, and allow them to repeat rhythmic patterns and play music. Active music therapy was the strategy predominantly used in interventions, and the most used membranophone was the djembe. Conclusion: The results suggest that music therapy with membranophones proved to be a viable intervention with beneficial results in improving physical, psychological, and social health of people over 18 years of age.

“…Not only can active participation in therapeutic music making classes attend to issues of socioemotional well-being, but there have also been studies suggesting that it can attend to the transcendental qualities of humanity like personal spirituality (McClean, Bunt, & Daykin, 2012). Evidence indicates that the holistic QOL benefits can also positively impact the physical aspects of health including immune system functioning (Kruse, 2003), thus suggesting that music consumption and production are an imperative aspect of life course development (Harmon & Adams, 2018).…”

Thirty people who were either in treatment, or in remission, from cancer and their caregivers participated in a therapeutic drumming clinic called Restorative Rhythms. As music has been proposed as a significant way to reduce stress and stimulate feelings of happiness and empowerment, it is therefore a valuable tool for coping with illnesses like cancer. Because people who are diagnosed with cancer often have trouble expressing their emotions, music can be used as an accessible channel for this necessary release. In addition to the inability to express internalized emotions derivative of the diagnosis or due to the requirements of the treatment regimen, patients often lose their sense of agency; creative expression like therapeutic drumming can help them regain their autonomy. This social, creative environment became a means to express the emotions participants were otherwise having trouble expressing, as well as a positive outlet for coming to terms with their "new normal" through music.

RESUMO Objetivo: Mapear o conhecimento científico sobre o uso de instrumentos de percussão na musicoterapia, em indivíduos maiores de 18 anos, no contexto de saúde. Método: Revisão de escopo com estratégia de busca implementada em setembro de 2021, em 13 bases de dados, utilizando-se descritores indexados e palavras-chave. Foram incluídos estudos sobre o uso de membranofones no cuidado a pessoas maiores de 18 anos. Foram excluídos estudos com participação de gestantes, pacientes psiquiátricos (esquizofrenia, psicose, adição) ou pessoas com déficit auditivo; e editoriais de revistas. O processo de seleção foi realizado por dois pesquisadores independentes. Resultados: Treze estudos foram incluídos e os resultados mostraram que os membranofones impactam de forma positiva na saúde física, psicológica e social das pessoas, em diferentes ambientes de cuidado, além de habilitá-los a repetir padrões rítmicos e musicar. A musicoterapia ativa foi a estratégia predominantemente utilizada nas intervenções, e o membranofone mais utilizado foi o djembê. Conclusão: Os resultados sugerem que a musicoterapia com membranofones mostrou ser uma intervenção viável com resultados benéficos na melhora da saúde física, psicológica e social em pessoas maiores de 18 anos.
