NCT01763736

Brief Summary

The objective of this research study is to assess the effects of music on patients' experience in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). The hypothesis of this study is that patients who receive music therapy will report a reduction in negative recollections and experiences while on mechanical ventilation and will require fewer pharmacologic agents to maintain their sedation.
