Brief Summary
Anxiety, fright, stress and pain have always been sources of emotional distress for patients undergoing invasive procedures in clinical settings. Experts have long used traditional methods such as analgesics and anxiolytics to address these issues. But, backed by a movement aiming at reducing the use of pharmacological products, alternative interventions, including music therapy, have gained some steam in recent years. These interventions may have the ability to reduce pain and anxiety while increasing relaxation, coping skills and the overall experience of the procedure. For orthopedic surgery, anesthetics could propose general anesthesia or locoregional anesthesia. The upper limb orthopedic surgery is often performed under locoregional anesthesia and in the ambulatory procedure. However, with the known exacerbating effects of stress and anxiety on pain, the affective experience of the patient can be negatively influenced. In order to mitigate these problems, various types of sedatives and anxiolytics and even low-dose propofol can be used. The Montpellier Regional University Hospital, along with the Music Care Company developed a software so as to standardize this technique around these recommendations. This model demonstrated its efficacy in both acute and chronic pain settings. Indeed, a single music therapy session was found to be effective for decreasing anxiety and promoting relaxation, as indicated by decreases in heart rate, blood pressure, BIS and respiratory rate over the intervention period in intubated patients during weaning phase. Also, a patient-controlled music intervention administered by Music Care has shown to alleviate negative psychological (e.g., depression) and physiological (e.g., pain and discomfort) outcomes and, very importantly, to reduce the consumption of medication in patients with chronic pain due to lumbar pain, fibromyalgia, inflammatory or neurological diseases. Given the recent availability of a standardized and proven delivery method of music therapy (i.e. MUSIC-CARE), the principal aim of this randomized clinical trial is to assess the effect of this music therapy program delivered by application compared to usual playlist music on drug consumptions and physiological parameters, pain, anxiety levels in patients undergoing forearm orthopedic surgery under locoregional anesthesia.

MUSIC-CARE Group
ACTIVE COMPARATORIn the Music-Care group, a program of music therapy was administered through a hardware and software provided to the investigative team by the Music-Care Company. The standardized techniques include three sequences in which the relaxing, maintenance and simulating times differ. Music-Care utilizes the "U" technique designed to gradually relax the listener. In the current study, music sequences during patients' sessions were based on the mount "U", and instrumental musical works were selected for a varying numbers styles (classical, jazz, world music, etc.) and adapted to the patient's style via patient request.
CONTROL group
SHAM COMPARATORIn the control group, a music program from an established playlist with various instrumental music is chosen by the patient and delivered by the same tablet.
Interventions
music relaxation by a specific hardware and software program application (MUSIC-CARE)
