Abstract:
Musical hallucinations had caused an 86-year-old deaf woman to become anxious and depressed. She was admitted, and tranquilizing and hypnotic drugs afforded some slight improvement. The use of her hearing aid to increase ambient noise levels reduced the intensity of the hallucinations, and the patient improved.
