Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI)

    Comparative results of the differences in STAI scores before and 5 minutes after the endoscopy in the music and control groups. The State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) is a valid, self-report measure that consists of 40 items, with 20 items assessing state anxiety (STAI-S) and the other 20 items assessing trait anxiety (STAI-T). For both state and trait components, scores range from 20 to 80, with higher scores indicating higher levels of anxiety

    Within 20 minutes pre-procedure and 5 minutes after the procedure

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Patient satisfaction

    5 minutes after the procedure

  • Heart rate

    Within 20 minutes pre-procedure and 5 minutes after the procedure

  • Blood pressure

    Within 20 minutes pre-procedure and 5 minutes after the procedure

  • patient tolerance

    During the procedure

Study Arms (2)

binaural music group

EXPERIMENTAL

Binaural music therapy was applied for 15 min before the procedure.

Other: binaural music

control

NO INTERVENTION

The control group was kept in a quiet room for 15 minutes before the procedure and then taken for the procedure.

Interventions

In the binaural music group, an MP3 player and in-ear stereo headphones were provided. Music therapy was applied for 15 min before the procedure.
