Researchers also want to learn how children respond during music and noise, whether early responses to music are linked to recovery at 6 months, and how parents experience music therapy during their child's hospital stay at The Royal Children's Hospital (RCH) in Melbourne.\n\nParticipants will:\n\n* Take part in a 10-day study period while in hospital. On 8 of the 10 days, they will receive either live or recorded familiar music in random order. Their level of consciousness will be measured before and after each session using a simple behavioural checklist. On the other 2 days, they will take part in video-recorded sessions to compare behavioural responses during live music, recorded music, and white noise. Videos will help capture small changes in movement, eye gaze, or facial expression.\n* Have their level of consciousness checked again at 6 months after injury to see if early responses relate to later recovery.\n\nParents and caregivers will be invited to take part in an interview about their experiences and observations of music therapy with their child.\n\nThis study will help researchers understand whether live music therapy provides benefits beyond recorded music and will guide how music therapy is best used to support children and families during recovery from severe brain injury.",[81,82],"Disorder of Consciousness","Acquired Brain Injury",[84,85,86],"music therapy","music","paediatric disorder of consciousness","NOT_YET_RECRUITING","2026-06-23",{"date":90,"type":91},"2026-06-25","ACTUAL",{"date":93,"type":75},"2026-08",{"date":95,"type":75},"2028-11-30",{"name":5,"class":6},1]
