NCT05077306

Brief Summary

Hospitalized patients for Covid-19 are extremely isolated from their families for a long and uncertain period of time .This traumatic separation makes patients vulnerable to different degrees of stress disorders as well as depression and anxiety , fear of the unknown and dying, sleeplessness, agitation, discomfort, pain, immobility, frustration and inability to relax . MusicTtherapy has been shown to play a valuable role in the care of patients with serious illness, helping to address physical symptoms and psychological distress . The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of introducing Music therapy (MT) on site with Covid-19 patients as a supporting complementary/non-pharmacological intervention, to investigate the immediate effects a single MT session has on anxiety, heart rate (HR), oxygen saturation (O2Sat) and satisfaction compared to standard care. In order to verify the hypotheses of the study, an RCT (mixed-methods approach pre -post design) will be carried out on patients diagnosed with SARS-COV2 admitted to Covid Hospital Bari, randomized into two groups: control group (B) and treatment group (A). . The study starts on 15th April 2021 and it is expected to run for 1 mounth (15th May 2021). The study is funding by University of Bari.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • State Trait Anxiety Inventory Y-1

    State Trait Anxiety Inventory Y-1(STAI-Y1) was used to measure how the subject felt in that moment. Subjects were asked to rate the intensity of their anxious feelings on 20 items on a four point scale: not at all, somewhat, moderately so, or very much so. STAI-Y values \<40 defined absence of anxiety, between 40 and 50 mild anxiety, 51-60 moderate anxiety, and\> 59 severe anxiety

    through study completion - an average of 30 days

Study Arms (2)

music therapy group

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients receive an individual single session of receptive music therapy in presence.

Other: music therapy group

Control group

NO INTERVENTION

Patients receive standard care

Interventions

individual bedside single session of receptive music therapy (RMT) by a certified Music therapist- GIM fellow in presence. STAI Y-1 was administered 5 min. before session (STAI Y-1 PRE) and 15 min. after session (STAI Y-1 POST) in paper form. HR and O2Sat were recorded from the bedside monitor 3 times: start session (T0), 10 min. (T1), end session (T2).Participants i were asked to fill in an optional open-ended question concerning their experience with music therapy.
