Short AE, Andreadis N, Cheung G, Stulz V. Evaluating the therapeutic use of music to address anxiety for women undergoing gynaecological and fertility treatments. BMC Complement Med Ther 2025; 25:91. [PMID: 40050810 PMCID: PMC11883957 DOI: 10.1186/s12906-024-04739-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/18/2023] [Accepted: 12/19/2024] [Indexed: 03/09/2025] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Music has been effectively used to address anxiety associated with medical treatments across broad applications. However, scant evidence exists about using music to reduce the significant anxiety experienced by women undergoing gynaecological procedures and fertility treatments. Such anxiety relates to the nature of procedures/examinations, invasiveness of the procedures, uncertainty around expectations, and intimate body part exposure, potentially affecting outcomes in triggering sympathetic nervous system responses. Music potentially contributes to anxiety management via known physiological and emotional effects. This funded collaborative project investigates therapeutic uses of music to address anxiety before and during gynaecology and fertility procedures, in order to assist participants with reducing their anxiety. METHODS Participants attending office, day surgery and other hospital procedures (N = 41) completed validated self-report surveys before and after procedures, listening to specific music via a purpose-designed Music Star. Additional contextual and qualitative data was sought to understand the nature of the experience for the women. RESULTS Results of this study indicated that the music intervention appeared to have a significant effect of reducing anxiety for women awaiting gynaecological and fertility procedures (p < .001, r = .82). CONCLUSIONS The use of music forms an acceptable intervention to decrease anxiety in this context and can enhance the experience of women during treatment. Such an increased use of music can provide anxiety management benefits to women undergoing gynaecological and fertility treatments, with these experiences suggesting potential educational benefits to support women through this extremely stressful and complex stage of their life.

[PMID: 39259054 PMCID: PMC11142810 DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000038182] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2023] [Revised: 03/19/2024] [Accepted: 04/18/2024] [Indexed: 09/12/2024] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Music therapy may have some potential in the pain control of extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy, and this meta-analysis aims to study the analgesic efficacy of music therapy for extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy. METHODS We have searched several databases including PubMed, EMbase, Web of Science, EBSCO and Cochrane Library databases, and selected the randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing the efficacy of music therapy for pain control of extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy. This meta-analysis was conducted using the random-effect or fixed-effect model based on the heterogeneity. RESULTS Ten RCTs and 879 patients were included in this meta-analysis. Compared with routine care for extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy, music therapy was associated with substantially reduced pain scores (standard mean difference [SMD] = -1.00; 95% CI = -1.57 to -0.42; P = .0007), improved patient satisfaction (SMD = 1.61; 95% CI = 0.45 to 2.77; P = .006) and willingness to repeat (SMD = 2.06; 95% CI = 0.40 to 3.72; P = .01), but had no influence on analgesic consumption (SMD = -3.11; 95% CI = -7.07 to 0.85; P = .12) or adverse events (OR = 1.66; 95% CI = 0.20 to 14.10; P = .64). CONCLUSIONS Music therapy was effective to control the pain of extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy.

Abstract
A multitude of clinical trials measuring hemodynamic and psychological parameters have shown the beneficial effects of music on health. However, there are no clear instructions on how to utilize the potential benefits of music to improve health outcomes. Moreover, whether the effect of music is transient or enduring has yet to be determined. To address the effect of music on vital parameters and emotional well-being of patients we provide an overview of methods and findings of some studies that have evaluated the physiological or psychological impacts of music. This review puts forward a proposed model for fostering an individualized approach that can examine the therapeutic effects of music.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Kidney biopsies are procedures commonly performed in clinical nephrology and are increasingly used in research. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the experiences of participants who underwent research kidney biopsies in the Kidney Precision Medicine Project (KPMP). METHODS KPMP research participants with AKI or CKD were enrolled at nine recruitment sites in the United States between September 2019 and January 2023. At 28 days postbiopsy, participants were invited to complete a survey to share their experiences, including motivation to participate in research, comprehension of informed consent, pain and anxiety during and after the biopsy procedure, overall satisfaction with KPMP participation, and effect of the study on their lives. The survey was developed in collaboration with the KPMP Community Engagement Committee and the Institute of Translational Health Sciences at the University of Washington. RESULTS One hundred and eleven participants completed the survey, 23 enrolled for AKI and 88 for CKD. The median age was 61 (interquartile range [IQR], 48-67) years, 43% were women, 28% were Black, and 18% were of Hispanic ethnicity. Survey respondents most commonly joined KPMP to help future patients (59%). The consent form was understood by 99%, and 97% recognized their important role in this study. Pain during the biopsy was reported by 50%, at a median level of 1 (IQR, 0-3) on a 0-10 scale. Anxiety during the biopsy was described by 64% at a median level of 3 (IQR, 1-5) on a 0-10 scale. More than half conveyed that KPMP participation had an effect on their diet, physical activity, and how they think about kidney disease. CONCLUSIONS KPMP survey respondents were most commonly motivated to participate in research protocol kidney biopsies by altruism, with excellent understanding of the informed consent process.

Abstract
Background: Music can be used as a complementary intervention to bring about a positive effect on the quality of life. It has been widely employed in clinical practice as one of the earliest forms of treatment. Despite the fact that music therapy is widely utilized and practiced in clinical and educational contexts, it has received little attention in formal medical settings. In addition, contradictory findings about the effect of music deserve further investigation.Purpose: This meta-analysis is conducted to examine the effect of music therapy on heart rates among adult patients.Methods: The MEDLINE, CINAHL, PsycInfo, Cochrane Library, and PubMed databases were used for searching the literature. The literature review was conducted by two independent researchers using the following Medical Subject Headings terms: musicotherapy OR music therapy, AND heart rate OR vital signs AND clinical trials as the topic. Standard mean difference (SMD) with 95% confidence interval (CI) values was used to evaluate the effect of music therapy on heart rates.Results: Out of 194 studies, 12 studies were included with 1,118 patients. According to the results of the meta-analysis, the heart rates in the experimental groups in which music therapy was used with various diagnoses of adult patients were found to be significantly different in comparison with the control group (SMD=-0.450, 95% CI=-8.86 to -0.31, p=0.04).Conclusion:The results established that using music therapy for adult patients reduced their heart rates. However, the heterogeneity among the studies was high. Therefore, it is recommended that high-quality trials are warranted to confirm the benefits of music therapy interventions among adult patients.

The Effect of Inhalation Aromatherapy and Music Therapy on Anxiety in Patients Undergoing Shockwave Lithotripsy: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial. EVIDENCE-BASED COMPLEMENTARY AND ALTERNATIVE MEDICINE 2022; 2022:8015798. [PMID: 35815287 PMCID: PMC9259239 DOI: 10.1155/2022/8015798] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2022] [Revised: 06/01/2022] [Accepted: 06/14/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
Patients undergoing shock wave lithotripsy (SWL) have a high level of anxiety. This study was aimed to compare the effect of music therapy and aromatherapy on patients' anxiety levels during SWL. In this clinical trial, 176 patients undergoing SWL were randomly assigned to four groups: music therapy, aromatherapy, combined music therapy and aromatherapy, and control. The state-trait anxiety inventory (STAI) was used to collect data. In the aromatherapy group, three drops of rosemary essential oil were used during SWL. For the music therapy group, soft music was played during SWL. In the music therapy and aromatherapy group, soft music and three drops of rosemary essential oil were used simultaneously. In the control group, three drops of aromatic distilled water were used. The results showed that all patients had moderate anxiety before the intervention. The analysis of variance test did not show a statistically significant difference between the groups, but this difference was significant after the intervention. The levels of anxiety after the intervention were higher in the music therapy, aromatherapy, and combined music therapy and aromatherapy groups than in the control group. The results of the paired t-test showed the level of anxiety after the intervention was significantly increased in the intervention group (P < 001). In conclusion, the results indicated that music therapy, aromatherapy, and combined music therapy and aromatherapy had no effect on reducing patients' anxiety during SWL.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the influence of music together with visual objects as an ambiance in the waiting room on anxiety levels of breast cancer patients scheduled to receive chemotherapy in outpatient setting for the first time. MATERIAL AND METHOD Breast cancer patients planned to receive adjuvant or neoadjuvant chemotherapy for the first time between November 1, 2020, and July 31, 2021, were included. Two designs, including a standard waiting room (StWR) and an intervention waiting room (IWR) that was created by adding music and visual objects to the standard room, were constructed. These 2 designs were repeated sequentially in monthly periods, and a total of 104 patients with 52 in each group were randomized. The State Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADs) were used for assessments. Results of the patients in StWR and IWR groups were compared. RESULTS Both HADs anxiety and STAI-state anxiety scale scores were lower in patients who waited in IWR compared to those who waited in StWR (p = 0.041, p = 0.012, respectively). In patients in the IWR group, mean heart rate was lower by 7.6 bpm (p = 0.009). No difference was found between the groups with regard to HADs depression score and STAI-trait anxiety score (p = 0.305, p = 0.535, respectively). For all patients, HADs anxiety scale (r = 0.400, p = < 0.001) and STAI-state anxiety scale (r = 0.475, p = < 0.001) scores increased as the waiting time increased. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION The present study is the first to investigate the influence of adding music together with visual objects to the standard ambiance of the chemotherapy waiting room on anxiety levels of breast cancer patients. We propose that introduction of paintings, artificial plants, and music to the ambiance of the waiting room has a significantly positive effect on alleviating anxiety levels of cancer patients waiting for chemotherapy.

Abstract
Audio-visual (AV) or music distraction may be used to reduce pain during several healthcare procedures. The present manuscript is a systematic review and meta-analysis to assess the effectiveness of media distraction in reducing pain and anxiety in extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) patients. The PubMed, Embase, Scopus, BioMed Central, Ovoid and CENTRAL (Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials) databases were screened for studies assessing the role of media distraction (music/AV media) in reducing pain and anxiety of ESWL patients. Data were summarized using the mean difference (MD) with 95% confidence intervals (CI). A total of 11 randomized controlled trials were included. Pooled analysis indicated a statistically significant difference in pain outcomes with media distraction [mean difference (MD): -1.18; 95% CI: -2.35, -0.01; I2=96.8%)]. Subgroup analysis indicated that both AV media (MD: -2.94; 95% CI: -4.70, -1.17; I2=79.2%) and music (MD: -0.86; 95% CI: -1.37, -0.35; I2=62.5%), led to significant reduction in pain outcomes. Pooled analysis indicated a statistically significant reduction of anxiety scores with the use of media distraction (MD: -3.91; 95% CI: -6.44, -1.38; I2=77.7%). To conclude, the present review suggests that media distraction in the form of AV media or music may be beneficial in reducing the pain and anxiety of patients undergoing ESWL. Evidence is, however, weak considering the small effect size, confidence intervals being close to zero, and instability of the results on sensitivity analysis. In clinical practice, media distraction may be used during ESWL as a nursing intervention, but a clinically important reduction of pain and anxiety may not be expected.

Abstract
Background Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) is the only non-invasive treatment for urolithiasis; however, it can cause anxiety and pain for patients. Several new nonpharmacological adjuvant approaches have been developed to reduce adverse events. Objective To analyze the efficacy of watching movies during ESWL to relieve anxiety and pain. Methods A total of 84 patients were randomly divided into two groups. The experimental group consisted of 42 patients who watched their own selected movies during the ESWL session, while the control group included 42 patients who did not watch movies. Basic characteristics, hemodynamic parameters, State-Trait Anxiety Inventory, Visual Analog Scale for pain, willingness to repeat the procedure, and patient satisfaction rates were collected and analyzed. Results After watching movies during ESWL, patients had a significantly lower anxiety level (p = 0.001) and a higher satisfaction rate (p = 0.021). No statistically significant differences were found in terms of demographic data, hemodynamic parameters, pain scores, or willingness to repeat the procedure. Conclusion Watching self-selected movies during an ESWL can effectively reduce anxiety and improve satisfaction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The present evidence is insufficient for evaluating the impact of exclusive music therapy on anxiety and pain control in extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL). METHODS A systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted to explore the efficacy of music therapy in reducing pain and anxiety in patients undergoing ESWL. PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, EBSCO, and Cochrane library databases (updated March 2020) were searched for randomized controlled trials assessing music therapy in reducing pain and anxiety in patients undergoing ESWL. The search strategy and study selection process were managed according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analysis statement. RESULTS Five randomized controlled trials were included in the meta-analysis. Overall, music intervention groups experienced significant reductions in pain (risk ratios = -1.20, 95% confidence intervals = -1.95 to -0.45, P = .002) and anxiety (risk ratios = -3.31, 95% confidence intervals = -4.97 to -1.84, P < .0001) compared with control groups during ESWL. Music therapy gave patient more satisfaction with the treatment and a willingness to repeat the therapy was reported. However, there was no significant difference in the stone clearance rate. CONCLUSIONS Listening to music can reduce patient's pain and anxiety significantly with increased therapy satisfaction and willingness to repeat.

Abstract
For persons infected with SARS-CoV-2, the virus affects the vital organ function, but especially the respiratory function. The experts have proposed several treatments for COVID patients with a good rate of success. For every age, there are indications of the maximum heart rate and the optimal heart rate range (between 60% and 90% of the maximum heart rate), which leads to an improvement for one’s physical condition. Because the Coronavirus particularly affects the respiratory function, after the convalescence period it is recommended to practice some respiratory exercises and low to moderate intensity physical activity.

World J Transplant 2020; 10:79-89. [PMID: 32405474 PMCID: PMC7205904 DOI: 10.5500/wjt.v10.i4.79] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/03/2019] [Revised: 03/09/2020] [Accepted: 03/26/2020] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Both end-stage renal disease and being wait-listed for a kidney transplant are anxiety-causing situations. Wait-listed patients usually require arteriovenous fistula surgery for dialysis access. This procedure is performed under local anesthesia. We investigated the effects of music on the anxiety, perceived pain and satisfaction levels of patients who underwent fistula surgery. AIM To investigate the effect of music therapy on anxiety levels and perceived pain of patients undergoing fistula surgery. METHODS Patients who were on a waiting list for kidney transplants and scheduled for fistula surgery were randomized to control and music groups. The music group patients listened to music throughout the fistula surgery. The State-Trait Anxiety Inventory was performed to assess anxiety, additionally visual analog scale was used to evaluate perceived pain, willingness to repeat the procedure and patient satisfaction. Demographic features, comorbidities, surgical history, basic surgical data (location of fistula creation, duration of surgery, incision length) and intra-operative hemodynamic parameters were recorded by an investigator blinded to the study group. An additional trait anxiety assessment was performed following the surgery. RESULTS There was a total of 55 patients included in the study. However, 14 patients did not fulfill the criteria due to requirement of sedation during surgery or uncompleted questionnaires. The remaining 41 patients were included in the analysis. There were 26 males and 15 females. The control and music groups consisted of 20 and 21 patients, respectively. With regard to basic surgical and demographic data, there was no difference between the groups. Overall patient satisfaction was significantly higher and intra-operative heart rate and blood pressure were significantly lower in the music group (P < 0.05). Postoperative state anxiety levels were significantly lower in the music group. CONCLUSION Music therapy can be a complimentary treatment for patients undergoing fistula surgery. It can reduce anxiety and perceived pain, improve intraoperative hemodynamic parameters and enhance treatment satisfaction, thus may contribute to better compliance of the patients.

Effect of Music on Outpatient Urological Procedures: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis from the European Association of Urology Section of Uro-Technology. J Urol 2018; 199:1319-1327.

Abstract
PURPOSE Music is a practical, inexpensive and harmless analgesic and anxiolytic. An increasing number of original studies have been performed to investigate its potential application in urology. Our aim was to identify the effect of music on outpatient based urological procedures. MATERIALS AND METHODS We systematically reviewed the effect of using music during all reported outpatient urology procedures, including transrectal ultrasound guided prostate biopsy, shock wave lithotripsy, urodynamic studies, percutaneous nephrostomy tube placement and cystoscopy. Data were included on all randomized trials from 1980 to 2017 and no language restrictions were applied. RESULTS Included in analysis were 16 randomized studies in which 972 of 1,950 patients (49.8%) were exposed to music during an outpatient procedure. The procedures included transrectal ultrasound guided prostate biopsy in 4 studies in a total of 286 patients, shock wave lithotripsy in 6 studies in a total of 1,023, cystoscopy in 3 studies in a total of 331, urodynamics in 2 studies in a total of 210 and percutaneous nephrostomy in 1 study in a total of 100. All studies incorporated a visual analog score to measure pain. Anxiety was measured by STAI (State-Trait Anxiety Inventory) in 13 studies and by a visual analog scale in 2. While 14 of the 16 studies showed a reduction in self-reported pain, a reduction in anxiety was seen in 14. When using music, overall procedural satisfaction was better in 9 studies and patient willingness to repeat the procedure was also higher in 7. Our meta-analysis revealed a significant reduction in visual analog scale and STAI findings across all studies (p <0.001). CONCLUSIONS Our systematic review demonstrated a beneficial effect of music on urological outpatient procedures. Music seemed to decrease anxiety and pain. It might serve as a useful adjunct to increase procedural satisfaction and patient willingness to undergo the procedure again.
