ABSTRACT

The number of autistic patients is increasing year by year, and the population is mainly concentrated in children. Autism has seriously affected children’s language development, and has caused a great burden to children's families and society. The research on the treatment of autistic children has never stopped, but the treatment effect of conventional language training and rehabilitation therapy is poor, and children are often difficult to resume normal language communication. With the development of the medical industry, music therapy has become a new type of therapy. It guides children to communicate with each other through soothing music rhythm. Intelligent medical equipment can help to timely analyze children's psychological conditions, adjust the intensity of music therapy and play appropriate music. This paper has compared the conventional language training therapy with the speech rehabilitation therapy based on music therapy combined with intelligent medical devices. The results showed that the average language communication ability of children with autism who had no language ability was 37.3% and 54.8% respectively under the conventional language training and music therapy. Among the autistic children with partial language ability, the average language communication ability of children with conventional language training and music therapy was 54.9% and 60.9% respectively. Therefore, speech rehabilitation therapy based on music therapy and intelligent medical devices can effectively improve the language communication ability of autistic children.
