Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• State-Trait Anxiety Scale

  This scale is grounded in the two-factor theory of anxiety and comprises two sections with a total of 40 items. The items include both direct statements, which reflect negative emotional states, and reverse statements, which reflect positive emotional states. The total score ranges from 20 to 80, with higher scores indicating greater levels of anxiety. The first section (Items 1-20) assesses state anxiety, evaluating how the individual feels at a given moment. Respondents are asked to select one of the following options: Not at all, A little, A lot, or Completely. The second section (Items 21-40) measures trait anxiety, reflecting how the individual generally feels over time. For each item, respondents choose from: Almost never, Sometimes, Very often, or Almost always. The scale is intended to measure anxiety experienced over the past six months.

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients were met within 1 hour preoperatively. Vital signs, pain scores, and blood glucose levels were checked, and the state anxiety scale was administered. Music was played through headphones and speakers for at least 20 minutes, according to the patient's preference for both type and metod of listening. The state anxiety scale was then applied again. Patients' questions were answered and they were encouraged to share any concerns. Patient's questions were answered, and they were encouraged to share any concerns. They were prepared for surgery and transferred to the operating room. On the day after surgery, patients were visited again. Vital signs, pain scores, and blood glucose levels were checked and the perianesthesia comfort questionnaire (PCQ) was administered.

Interventions

music application OTHER

Patients were met within 1 hour preoperatively. Vital signs, pain score, blood glucose were checked and state anxiety scale was applied. Music was played through headphones and speakers for at least 20 minutes according to the type of music preferred by the patients and the preferred way of listening to music, and the state anxiety scale was applied again. Patients' questions were answered and they were encouraged to share any concerns. Patients were prepared for surgery and transferred to the operating room. Considering the patient's recovery from anesthesia, patients were visited again the day after surgery, vital signs, pain score, blood glucose were checked and the perianesthesia comfort questionnaire (PCQ) was applied.

Study Design

• Study Type: interventional
• Phase: not applicable
• Allocation: RANDOMIZED
• Masking: SINGLE
• Who Masked: INVESTIGATOR
• Masking Details: Randomization was performed to ensure that patients who met the inclusion criteria among those admitted to the clinic for thyroidectomy surgery had an equal chance of being selected for the study. In order to perform randomized sampling, a table of random numbers was obtained over the internet in the computer environment by specifying the number of samples. A lottery method was then used to assign patients to either the intervention or control groups. To prevent mutual influence, patients were hospitalized in separate rooms.
• Purpose: SUPPORTIVE CARE
• Intervention Model: PARALLEL

• Responsible Party: PRINCIPAL INVESTIGATOR
• PI Title: Lecturer

Model Details: Two groups with a conventional therapy control group
