| Sumario: | This article critically examines the nurse-led five-element music therapy (FEMT) intervention for post-stroke depression developed using the Medical Research Council framework, highlighting its grounding in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) concepts linking musical tones to organs and emotions. It emphasizes the need to distinguish between FEMT’s culture-specific therapeutic rationale and universal receptive music therapy mechanisms to clarify which components drive its efficacy. The article proposes research steps—including dismantling studies, neuroaesthetic reframing, and cross-cultural validation—to determine FEMT’s essential active ingredients and enhance its cultural transferability. This approach aims to inform global nursing practice by identifying which elements require faithful implementation versus those adaptable to diverse cultural contexts. |
