Brief Summary

Background: Anxiety is a common phenomenon in hospitalized patients. In order to reduce it during the surgical procedure, sedatives and anxiolytics are used, which can cause undesirable side effects for patients. Music is described as an effective tool to reduce this anxiety suffered by the patient in the perioperative process. Objectives: To evaluate the effect of music in patients anxiety and pain during perioperative process in surgical intervention with regional anaesthesia without sedatives or anxiolytics. Design: A randomized parallel clinical trial study with single-blinded and three harms. Setting: Operating theater of a public district hospital (serving around 111.000 people) Participants: All patients operated of Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) with regional anaesthesia with age between 50 and 85 years old within level I or II of the classification of the American Society of Anaesthesiologists (ASA). Methods: A total of 81 patients for TKA were randomly assigned to: a control group (headphones without music, without sedation), a sedative group (headphones without music, with sedation) and a experimental group (headphones with music, without sedation). 27 participants for each group. All the participants were using headphones so that it was a single-blinded study. The experimental group were provided with the same music, Piano Guys group. The variables of study were: the pain was measured by vale numerical scale (VNS), the anxiety was measured by the use of State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI), heart rate (HR) variability, blood pressure (BP) variability, saturation of oxygen (Sat02). Relevance to Clinical Practice: sedation that can causes unwanted side effects by surgical patients can be replaced by music. The music decrease anxiety and pain values in orthopaedic surgery patients. Keywords: Anxiety, Drugs, Music therapy, Pain, Perioperative, Surgery.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Anxiety State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI)

    The State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) consists of two different parts, termed STAI-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI-TA) and STAI-State Anxiety Inventory (STAI-SA). This test requires patients to complete a 40-item, 20 items measuring state anxiety and 20 items measuring trait anxiety (Spielberger et al.,1970) adding each one of the items of each subscale. The score can range between 0 and 60, representing the highest and lowest levels of anxiety, respectively. In our study, STAI-TA test results were evaluated preoperatively. The STAI-SA was performed during the waiting room (Orthopaedic unit, 30 minutes before surgery) and postoperative period in Post anaesthesia care unit (PACU) (recovery period, 30 minutes after surgery). There are no cut points, but direct scores are transformed into centiles based on sex and age.
