Clinical Trial Summary

This study aims to measure the effectiveness of the Music Therapy nursing intervention in reducing anxiety in outpatients diagnosed with severe mental illness (SMI) (bipolar disorder and schizophrenia). The intervention was structured over five weeks (ten 1-hour sessions, twice weekly). Objective measures (blood pressure, heart rate, and respiratory rate) and subjective measures (anxiety response and the subjective perception of relaxation) were taken before and after every session.


Description:

This study aims to measure the effectiveness of the Music Therapy nursing intervention in reducing anxiety in outpatients diagnosed with SMI (bipolar disorder and schizophrenia). The general objective is to evaluate the effectiveness of the Nursing Interventions Classification (NIC) activity, known as Music Therapy, as a therapeutic modality complementary to psychopharmacological treatment for reducing anxiety in patients diagnosed with SMI. The specific research questions are: Q1: How much do music interventions affect the objective values of vital signs (systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure (DBP), heart rate (HR), and respiratory rate (RR)) in people diagnosed with SMI? Q2: How much does the subjective perception of anxiety change after a music intervention with people diagnosed with SMI? This pilot study is quasi-experimental analytical research of type cross-sectional. It was conducted with outpatients diagnosed with SMI. All patients were recruited from a community mental health center in Valencia (Spain). Fourteen patients regularly attended an occupational activities rehabilitation workshop. All of them were recruited: after the workshop, they participated in the music therapy sessions. All the participants had been previously diagnosed with SMI (schizophrenia, bipolar disorder) by their psychiatrist. Ten participants lived with their parents, and four lived alone and lacked familiar support. None of the participants worked. All had total permanent disability, legally granted, and therefore could not carry out any work activity. All patients who met the inclusion/exclusion criteria and voluntarily accepted to participate were recruited: 14 patients (3 people with bipolar disorder, 11 people with schizophrenia) participated in the study (with a total sample of 10 group sessions and 150 individual data collection interviews). None of the patients had any previous music therapy experience. All patients followed unique treatments, and this study was an opportunity to motivate their social interaction through music and to study its impact on anxiety. The patients' psychiatrists determined the cognitive competency of the patients and decided the convenience of their participation. The intervention was organized into ten 1-hour music therapy sessions at the outpatient level twice weekly. Patients' adherence to the music therapy sessions was 75%, which was more or less stable (standard deviation 15%).
