The therapeutic effect of ceramic art healing design combined with drug intervention on menopausal depression

Abstract

Background

Menopausal depression is a depressive disorder that occurs during menopause, characterized by symptoms such as low mood and difficulty falling asleep. In addition, the etiology of menopausal depression may be related to endocrine and gonadal dysfunction. There are many therapeutic drugs for this disease, such as fluoxetine and paroxetine. The common starting point of ceramic art healing design is to provide people with a way to promote physical and mental health and recovery.

Subjects and Methods

In response to the therapeutic effect of ceramic art healing design combined with drug intervention on menopausal depression, 120 patients with menopausal depression were selected and randomly divided into two groups, the experimental group and the control group, with 60 patients in each group. Among them, the control group only used fluoxetine for treatment, while the experimental group used some ceramic artworks with healing design based on drug treatment. The treatment period for both groups of patients was 6 weeks. In addition, to evaluate the treatment effect, the study used the Hamilton Depression Scale, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index, and SPSS23.0.

Results

The research results showed that both groups of patients had a significant decrease in their depression scores after treatment (P<0.05), and the magnitude of the decrease in the experimental group was significantly greater than that in the control group. Meanwhile, the sleep quality index scores of both groups of patients after treatment showed a significant increase (P<0.05), and the increase in the experimental group was significantly greater than that in the control group.

Conclusions

In summary, the combination of ceramic art healing design and drug intervention has certain benefits for menopausal depression.
