Feasibility of a Music Therapy Intervention to Decrease Stress During Pediatric Critical Care

Critical Illness Clinical Trial

Official title:
Feasibility of a Music Therapy Intervention to Decrease Stress During Pediatric Critical Care

Clinical Trial Summary

Admission into a pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) is a highly stressful experience for child and family. High levels of stress can negatively impact outcomes, yet non-pharmacological interventions to decrease stress in the PICU are severely lacking. This is a prospective, single-arm feasibility trial that will explore the feasibility and acceptability of a music therapy intervention to decrease stress in the PICU among families of children receiving invasive or noninvasive mechanical ventilation. Objectives: The aims of this study are to: 1) Assess the feasibility of implementing a music therapy intervention in the PICU among children receiving invasive or non-invasive mechanical ventilation; 2) Determine the acceptability of the music therapy intervention in the ICU among caregivers, patients, and pediatric and cardiac ICU staff; 3) Explore the variability in child and caregiver stress outcomes throughout ICU admission. Hypothesis: The music therapy intervention will be feasible, as determined by recruitment, retention, protocol adherence, and data collection rates, and will be acceptable to participants and to PICU staff. Sample: This study will recruit 20 families that include children aged 2 months - 17 years old admitted with an expected length of ICU stay greater than 72 hours. Of these 20 families, the investigators will specifically recruit 10 families whose child is admitted for a hypoxic brain injury. Eligible children are receiving either noninvasive mechanical ventilation (i.e., continuous or bilevel positive airway pressure), invasive mechanical ventilation, or have an established tracheostomy tube and with escalated support settings. One primary caregiver will be enrolled along with the child admitted into the ICU.
