This book was released on 2005 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of familiar live music on the anxiety levels of patients undergoing chemotherapy treatment. Fifty patients randomly selected were assigned to 2 groups: experimental (n=25) and control (n=25). Pre and posttests consisted of questionnaires and the recording of the patient's heart rate and blood pressures. Subjects in the experimental group received 20 minutes of familiar live music during their chemotherapy treatment. Subjects in the control group received standard chemotherapy. It was assumed that those patients receiving music therapy intervention would: a) lower their anxiety levels; b) experience a decrease in heart rate and blood pressure; c) improve their levels of negative reactions including fatigue, worry, and fear; and d) improve their levels of positive reactions including comfort and relaxation. Results of the study showed statistically significant improvement for the experimental group on the measures of anxiety, fear, fatigue, relaxation, and diastolic blood pressure. No significant differences between groups were found for heart rate and systolic blood pressure. Descriptive values indicated that, on average, the experimental group was influenced positively by the music intervention, and participants improved their quality of life while undergoing chemotherapy treatment. The overall results confirmed that music intervention behaved as a powerful independent variable and significantly decreased levels of anxiety, fear, and fatigue, and increased the levels of relaxation for patients undergoing chemotherapy treatment.

This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of music therapy on patient anxiety and perception during radiation oncology procedures. The design of this study included experimental and control groups with pre-test and multiple post-test data collection. Groups were randomly assigned to experimental (music) and control (standard treatment) groups and included patients with head/neck, abdomen and breast treatment area (N = 26). The dependent variables included a Visual Analog Scale (VAS) anxiety measure, items from the Hospital Consumer Assessment of Healthcare and Provider Services/Picket and the facility Music Therapy satisfaction questionnaires. Results of a Two-Way Analysis of Variance with repeated measures revealed significantly lower post-test procedural anxiety between the experimental and control group across procedures after the simulation, the first treatment and the fifth. Patients' overall rating of the experience during each visit was significantly different between groups and across conditions. Overall, music therapy decreased anxiety, especially at the time of the first treatment.

Download or read book The Effect of a Single Music and Imagery Session on Anxiety of Outpatient Chemotherapy Patients written by Shannon Kiley and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: Twenty-three patients undergoing outpatient chemotherapy at Tallahassee Memorial HealthCare, a regional medical center, participated in this study. After informed consent was obtained, participants supplied demographic data and completed measures for depression, self-efficacy, and tension/anxiety. Heart rate was taken before and after the music and imagery session. Experimental participants chose one of three possible relaxation imagery scripts. The session began with a Progressive Muscle Relaxation and then transitioned into the chosen imagery script. Both sections were read softly by the music therapist and accompanied by live music played softly on a nylon-string guitar. After the session, heart rate was obtained and participants filled out a post-test tension/anxiety measure. A Mann-Whitney U test revealed that experimental participants experienced a significant decrease in tension/anxiety from pre-test to post-test (U= 32.5, c.u.= 33, p=.05). No significant differences were found for heart rate between groups (pre-test HR: U= 57.5, c.u.= 26, p= .05; post-test HR: U=40, c.u.= 26, p= .05). The results confirm that music therapy is effective for anxiety reduction with patients undergoing outpatient chemotherapy.

Download or read book Music Therapy and Medication Relieve Pain and Anxiety written by Teresa Perz and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bone marrow aspiration and biopsy can be painful for any patient undergoing this procedure. However, this procedure can cause more anxiety and pain for individuals involved in the Phase 1 clinical trial "to Assess the Feasibility, Safety, and Tolerability of Autologous Mesenchymal Stem Cell Transplantation in Patients With Relapsing Forms of Multiple Sclerosis" (NIH, 2013). Generally a bone marrow aspiration or biopsy requires a bone marrow needle to be inserted only once into the posterior superior iliac crest. However for this clinical trial, the physician obtains six separate specimens by inserting the bone marrow needle into the same insertion site three times to each hip area, but at a different angle. In multiple sclerosis patients scheduled for bone marrow aspiration, does pre-medication with an anti-anxiety drug and music therapy during the procedure, compared with Morphine Sulfate IV, with Lidocaine at the procedure site for both groups provide better relief with anxiety and pain over a period of one year? Music therapy has been shown to have a significant effect on patients experiencing pain and anxiety, especially during a bone marrow aspiration (Shabanloei and others, 2010). Prescribing oral lorazepam 90 to 120 minutes before the bone marrow exam has proven to be an effective treatment (Milligan and others, 1987). These methods would be simple and inexpensive for health care to use.

The Hong Kong Hospital Authority reported nearly 7000 patients suffered from acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in year 2010 to 2011. Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) is a minimal access surgical treatment for coronary artery disease but studies have shown that patients experienced different levels of anxiety before and during PTCA which led negative impact to the patients. Music can be regarded as a safe, cost-effective therapy to reduce one's anxiety level. It can be carried out by nurses without any specific technique. However, there was no systemic review for using music therapy to patients undergoing PTCA. Therefore, this dissertation aims to evaluate the best available evidence on using music therapy for patients undergoing PTCA. Four electronic databases, Medline, CINAHL, Embase & PsycINFO, were searched for studies to investigate the efficacy of music therapy in patients undergoing PTCA. There were seven studies were eligible with data extracted and quality assessment performed by the critical appraisal skill programme (CASP) checklist. Four studies were graded as high quality, which consistently demonstrated a statistically significant more reduction in the anxiety level of patients who received music therapy either before and/or during PTCA than those who had no music therapy. Consequently, an evidence-based guideline of using music therapy for patients undergoing PTCA was developed according to the guideline development process of SIGN (2010). The use of music therapy is transferable and feasibly in the local setting with little manpower concern. The total cost estimated for running the innovation for a year was HKD 83,775 which was considered as cost-effective to reduce patients' anxiety level and avoid associated adverse events. A 14-months programme including communication with the stakeholders, pilot testing, staff training and clinical application of the proposed music therapy was designed. Qualitative and quantitative data on patient, healthcare provider and system outcomes would be accounted throughout the programme. The effectiveness of the guideline would be determined by the reduction of patient's anxiety level by using the Chinese version of State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) (Shek, 1993). Moreover, healthcare provider outcome would be evaluated by questionnaire and the expenditure of the proposed music therapy would be monitored closely.

This book was released on 2005 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to examine the quality of life and anxiety/depression level of cancer patients and their families within a hospital setting. Any patient admitted to Tallahassee Memorial HealthCare that met the criteria for this study as determined by the medical personnel, was considered as a potential subject. The music therapy sessions consisted of a song written about the patient and family, live preferred music and counseling to help the patient and family. The experimental and control groups were randomly assigned. The experimental group (N=40), recieved two sessions of music therapy. The first music therapy session was used to gather information that the patient and family wanted to use in the song and also to assess the level of coping. The second music therapy session consisted of giving the patient a copy of the song, and a live performance of the song. The patient and one family member then provided self-report data on the Anxiety/Depression questionnaire, and the Hospice Quality of Life Index questionnaire. One week later, the patient was contacted and asked to fill out the same questionnaires as before and a Songwriting Quesionnaire. The control group (N=40), received one music therapy session consisting of preferred live music and counseling for the patient and family. At the end of each session, the patient and family member completed the Anxiety/Depression questionnaire and the Hospice Quality of Life questionnaire. One week later, the patient was contacted again to complete the same questionnaires as before. The patient Hospice Quality of Life questionnaire showed significantly higher scores for the experimental one-week post session group than the control one-week post session group. The Songwriting Questionnaire filled out only by the experimental subjects, showed a high mean score of 8.5 on a 10 point scale for coping skills.
