Development of an Orff music-based intervention program based on the PERMA model for children with cochlear implants: a Delphi study.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
objectiveTo develop a PERMA-based Orff music intervention program for children with cochlear implants and to evaluate its preliminary effectiveness in rehabilitation.
methodsThe intervention program was developed based on the PERMA model of positive psychology and Orff music therapy through a combination of literature review and the Delphi method. A panel of 15 experts in clinical medicine, rehabilitation, and nursing participated in two rounds of consultation to refine the program. Subsequently, a quasi-experimental study was conducted with 15 children who had cochlear implants to assess feasibility and potential effectiveness. Outcome measures included auditory, speech, and psychosocial indicators, evaluated before and after a 3-month intervention.
resultsAll experts completed both rounds of consultation, with importance ratings ranging from 4.2 to 5.0, indicating high consensus. The final intervention framework comprised 5 primary, 15 secondary, and 15 tertiary components. Following the 3-month intervention, significant improvements were observed across all outcome measures (p < 0.05). The program also demonstrated good acceptability and feasibility.
conclusionsThe PERMA-based Orff music intervention showed preliminary effectiveness in improving auditory, speech, and psychosocial outcomes in children with cochlear implants. This multidimensional approach may provide a useful reference for developing comprehensive rehabilitation strategies in pediatric clinical practice. At the same time, the study results provide preliminary observational data on the feasibility of the intervention, which can serve as a reference for the design of future randomized controlled trials.
