anxiety, pain
Numerous procedures, including cardiac catheterization, breast biopsies, cystoscopies, endoscopies, ophthalmologic surgery, extracorporeal lithotripsy and so on have already been explored with music therapy [This first investigation uses music therapy to control pain after heart valve replacement surgery. Assessing the patient's viewpoint is the best way to quantify pain because it is a personal perception. Although other scales are available to assess and measure pain, VASs are the most popular and widely utilized [Additionally, listening to music reduces unpleasant emotional states like anxiety and fear, which have a substantial impact on both how much pain is felt and how it is remembered [Previous studies have shown that different patients having the same painful experience at a certain time will perceive less pain than those with less anxiety in the painful experience [In summary, music therapy helped patients having cardiac valve replacements significantly reduce their discomfort, anxiety, and vital indicators like SBP, HR, and RR. Music therapy seems to be a simple, accessible, and secure technique to enhance the treatment of patients who undergo this operation. At the same time, more research with bigger sample sizes and stronger covariate control is required to validate these findings.
