Brief Summary

This randomized controlled study aims to investigate the effects of ney music listening, a traditional Turkish wind instrument, on pain, anxiety, sleep quality, and vital signs in patients undergoing lumbar disc herniation surgery. Participants will be randomly assigned to intervention and control groups. The intervention group will receive a 15-minute ney music session at three different time points: preoperative (on the day of surgery), postoperative 3rd hour, and postoperative day 1. The control group will receive standard postoperative nursing care without music intervention. Data will be collected at the same time points in both groups using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS), State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI-I), Richard-Campbell Sleep Questionnaire, and vital signs. The study seeks to evaluate the non-pharmacological benefits of therapeutic music in postoperative recovery.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (6)

• The Effect of Ney Music on Pain

  Visual Analog Scale: The Visual Analog Scale is a commonly used unidimensional measure for assessing pain intensity. The VAS is a measurement tool ranging from 0 to 10 cm (0 to 100 mm) in length. Since the aim of the study is to determine the effect of the non-pharmacological method used on the current pain, the VAS will be used in the assessment of pain before and after application. Measurements will be taken at the following intervals: On the day of surgery, before surgery Three hours after surgery (after transfer to the clinic) On the morning of the first day after surgery

  6 month

• The Effect Ney Music on Anxiety

  State Anxiety Inventory: In our study, the State Anxiety Inventory will be used before and after the procedure to assess patients' anxiety levels in a specific situation. The State Anxiety Inventory (STAI-I) is a tool that measures how an individual feels at a specific moment and in a specific situation, i.e., their anxiety level in that situation.Each subscale consists of 20 items, and the inventory consists of a total of 40 items. When calculating the State Anxiety Inventory, the scoring is reversed for items 1, 2, 5, 8, 10, 11, 15, 16, 19, and 20. The total score from both scales in the inventory ranges from 20 to 80. High scores on the scales indicate high anxiety, while low scores indicate low anxiety levels. Measurements will be taken at the following intervals: On the day of surgery, before surgery;Three hours after surgery (after transfer to the clinic); On the morning of the first day after surgery

  6 month

• The Effect Ney Music on Sleep

  Richard-Campbell Sleep Scale: Assesses the depth of nighttime sleep, the time it takes to fall asleep, the frequency of waking up, the time spent awake after waking up, the quality of sleep, and the noise level in the environment. Each item is rated on a scale ranging from 0 to 100 using the Visual Analog Scale technique. A score between "0-25" on the scale indicates very poor sleep, while a score between "76-100" indicates very good sleep. The total scale score is evaluated based on five items, excluding the 6th item, which assesses the noise level in the environment, with a total score of 22. As the scale score increases, patients' sleep quality also improves. It will be used to evaluate the effect of non-pharmacological interventions on patients' sleep levels after surgery. Measurements will be taken at the following intervals: On the day of surgery, before surgery Three hours after surgery (after transfer to the clinic) On the morning of the first day after surgery

  6 month

• The Effect Ney Music on blood pressure

  Patients' blood pressure, values will be recorded. The effect of non-pharmacological interventions on patients' blood pressure values will be evaluated. Measurements will be taken at the following intervals: On the day of surgery, before surgery Three hours after surgery (after transfer to the clinic) On the morning of the first day after surgery

  6 month

• The Effect Ney Music on pulse

  Patients' pulse , values will be recorded. The effect of non-pharmacological interventions on patients' pulse values will be evaluated. Measurements will be taken at the following intervals: On the day of surgery, before surgery Three hours after surgery (after transfer to the clinic) On the morning of the first day after surgery

  6 month

• The Effect Ney Music on oxygen saturation

  Patients' oxygen saturation , values will be recorded. The effect of non-pharmacological interventions on patients' oxygen saturation values will be evaluated. Measurements will be taken at the following intervals: On the day of surgery, before surgery Three hours after surgery (after transfer to the clinic) On the morning of the first day after surgery

  6 month

Study Arms (2)

Ney Music

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants in this group will receive a 15-minute ney performance in addition to routine nursing care at specified times before and after lumbar disc surgery. The intervention will be carried out in three sessions: I. Session: On the day of surgery, before surgery II. Session: Within the first 3 hours after surgery (after transfer to the clinic) Session III: Morning of the first day after surgery Before and after the application, the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI-I), Richard-Campbell Sleep Scale, and vital signs (blood pressure, pulse, oxygen saturation) will be measured. Ney pieces in the Rast and Nihavent modes will be used in the sessions.

Other: Ney music

Standard care

NO INTERVENTION

Only standard nursing care will be provided to participants in this group. Parallel to the timing in the intervention group, VAS, STAI-I, Richard-Campbell Sleep Scale, and vital signs will be measured at three separate times (pre-surgery, first 3 hours post-surgery, and first day post-surgery), but no music will be played.
