    摘要: A method, system and processes to develop a patient tailored music therapy based on Indian Classical Music compositions to treat ASD (Autistic Spectrum Disorders) and ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) is described. According to this present invention there is provided a method to develop a tailored music therapy for treating patients suffering from ASD (Autistic Spectrum Disorders) and ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) based on the patient's response and a system to measure response of the patient to music therapy and mindfulness inputs. This invention comprises of a process to determine suitable Indian Classical Music compositions playlist for use in treating the patient (FIG. 1) followed by further tuning of the selections allowable note levels, ramp up and ramp down times to and from allowable note levels, melody hold times and rhythm pattern selection to develop an optimum waveform (FIG. 2) all based on measuring the patient response using a multiple input—physical movement, audio and brain wave response measurement system (FIG. 3) or thru visual observations. The invention also provides a process to determine daily therapy and mindfulness time and a process for monthly music therapy and mindfulness tailoring. The invention also provides a system (FIG. 3) to measure patient response to the music therapy and mindfulness, which can be used in conjunction with or in place of visual observations. In this invention the patient starts off with a therapy and mindfulness tailoring session where a playlist of Indian Classical Music Raga compositions is first developed, selected based on the patient's response as measured by the system provided in FIG. 3 or thru visual observations. Then patient specific optimum note level, beat rhythm pattern and rhythm pattern frequency, ramp up to and down times from optimum note levels are determined based on the patient's response to create a waveform (FIG. 2). The playlist selections are then modified manually or by a computer program using the waveform parameters and when played to the patient elicits a Calm Range Response pattern defined by a state of stimulated mindfulness but not falling asleep characterized by specific range of motion, audio or brain wave response unique to the patient. The specific pieces of the waveform are derived by varying waveform parameters and measuring the response of the patient (FIGS. 4 A, B, C, D) using the response measuring system (FIG. 3) or thru visual observations. The invention also describes a process to develop daily listening period duration (FIG. 5). The invention describes a process used to develop a tailored therapy and mindfulness regimen tuned to the patient using response collected over a specific period of time (FIG. 6). The invention further describes a system and apparatus which dynamically measures multiple inputs—movement, voice and brain wave response of the patient in response to the music therapy and mindfulness playlist modified by the therapy and mindfulness waveform manually or automatically by software, and a software dashboard and database which collects data across a period of time and can show progress of patient during exposure to music therapy and mindfulness (FIG. 3). The invention results in a music therapy tailored to the patient.
