Filter by:Children on mechanical ventilation are given painful stimuli an average of 10-14 times a day, and endotracheal aspiration is one of the procedures that causes the most pain in these children. Effective pain control not only improves the quality of life of children undergoing cardiothoracic surgery, but can also improve clinical outcome. If pain is not alleviated or eliminated with effective interventions during this period, it may cause neurological and behavioral disorders in the future. Excessive and long-term pain, especially as a result of applied interventions, causes behavioral stress and physiological imbalances. Any painful invasive procedure may interfere with the child's behavior, nutrition routine, interaction with the mother, and the child's adaptation to the environment, as well as may cause postoperative complications. In addition, experiencing pain can affect subsequent pain behaviors, causing the child to have a sensitivity to pain throughout his life. Effective pain management is divided into two categories: pharmacological and non-pharmacological. Non-pharmacological pain management strategies in children Pain management is defined as any strategy or technique applied to a child in pain with the aim of reducing the pain experience. Listening to recorded maternal voice and maternal heartbeat, music therapy, white noise are some of the non-pharmacological methods used in children. Studies emphasize that the use of music therapy is an effective method to reduce postoperative pain, ensure better oxygenation and improve physiological parameters in children who have undergone major surgery such as cardiothoracic surgery. It is also emphasized that music therapy reduces respiratory frequency, stabilizes breathing, stimulates the pituitary gland to secrete endorphins, and stabilizes heart rate and blood pressure by reducing catecholamine levels. It is stated that one of the non-pharmacological methods used in effective pain management in children is the mother's voice. Although the mechanism underlying the effect of the mother's voice is not fully explained, it is stated that the mother's voice will create a relaxing environment for children. Studies have shown that listening to the mother's voice before and after invasive interventions on babies and children in the intensive care unit reduces pain. In a study conducted by Erdoğan and his colleagues, they found that the pain levels, heart rates and oxygen saturations of children aged 1-3 who were listened to the mother's voice during painful procedures were lower. It is emphasized that listening to the mother's voice is one of the approaches that can be used as an effective method in pain management in critical care environments where mothers cannot be with their babies and children and cannot actively participate in their care. It is known that non-pharmacological methods are effective in reducing pain in children, and they increase the effectiveness of drugs when used together with analgesics. Non-pharmacological methods are preferred because they are easy to apply and cheap, and they reduce the need for drug administration and thus the risk of side effects. Knowing the impact of pain and related stress on children, developing appropriate pain control strategies is both a medical and ethical responsibility. When the literature is examined, it is thought that there are a limited number of studies examining the effects of mother's voice and music therapy on pain and physiological parameters during the aspiration process in intubated children, and that not examining "mother's voice and music therapy", which directly affects pain and physiological parameters during the aspiration process in intubated children, is an important limitation. In this context, the aim of the study is to examine the effects of mother's voice and music therapy on pain and physiological parameters during the aspiration process in intubated children.
This study will be conducted with a randomized controlled study model to examine the effect of music therapy on nausea, vomiting and anxiety levels in children diagnosed with oncological cancer receiving cisplatin. The research is planned to be carried out at Dokuz Eylül University Nevvar-Salih İşgören Children's Hospital Pediatric Hematology-Oncology Clinic between December 2023 and December 2024. There is no application for music therapy in the operation of this hospital and clinic.
The main purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of music therapy on the upper extremity functions and quality of life of individuals with Cerebral Palsy (CP). The secondary aim is to investigate the effect of music therapy on the sensory functions of the upper extremity in individuals with CP. Adolescent individuals with hemiparetic CP will participate in this study, and the participants will experience music therapy, which is a scientific intervention approach. If music therapy has a positive effect on upper extremity functions, they will be more active in daily life and their quality of life will increase. In the light of these data to be presented, a contribution will be made to the evidence level of music therapy in the literature and to the content of SP upper extremity rehabilitation.
This study was planned to examine the effect of music therapy on the comfort levels of nurses. In the study, data will be collected by using Descriptive Characteristics Information Form and Nurse Comfort Scale. Whether the nurses who meet the inclusion criteria will be in the intervention or control group will be determined by simple randomization. Music intervention sessions will be applied to each participant for 5 weeks, 3 days a week, 20 minutes per session. After 5 weeks, the Nurse Comfort Scale will be applied to the participants again.
This study plans to explore whether specially chosen relaxing music can help improve sleep, reduce stress, and prevent burnout in healthcare workers, many of whom are often sleep-deprived. The researchers will measure changes in brain activity, sleep patterns, and self-reported stress levels before, during, and after participants listen to this music. The novel approach includes using advanced brain scanning technology, sleep monitoring devices, and carefully selected music. Ultimately, the aim is to create a scientifically backed music intervention that can be used widely to help healthcare providers get better sleep and manage stress, potentially reducing burnout rates.
It is common knowledge that music has a positive impact on human well-being. It is also well-known that medical residents are frequently stressed and burnt out. With these two thoughts in mind, the investigators want to explore how participating in a musical engagement program may positively impact medical resident well-being. The investigators hope to do this by hosting four informal musical engagement sessions with medical residents, which will involve playing instruments, improvising, and reading sheet music. To study the impact that this program has on participants, investigators will ask participants to complete a survey. The investigators hope to find that participants are positively impacted by participation in the study, in terms of factors like stress reduction and minimized burnout symptoms. Hopefully, the study results may inform residency program curriculum designers in the future may incorporate music into wellness programming.
To evaluate the effects of music therapy in the care of antepartum mothers admitted for long-term hospitalization due to the high-risk status of their pregnancy. The investigators speculate that mothers who receive music therapy will be more successful in forming positive coping habits, bonding with their infant, and increasing the length of incubation during their pregnancy. Furthermore, there is no research that correlates music therapy applied to stress reduction, increased coping, and increased caregiver-infant bonding prior to birth within one protocol. However, there is a significant amount of research supporting music therapy efficacy with neonatal intensive care unit infants and caregiver bonding post-partum as well as improved physiological signs of stress in infants in the post-partum period.
The aim of the study is to augment knowledge on interventions for children who live, or have lived, in shelters after exposure to domestic violence. Research questions concern the feasibility of a music group intervention for children. The experiences of children, caregivers, and professionals will be investigated. Additionally, outcomes concerning emotional reactivity, capacity for emotional regulation, quality of life, and psychological health will be evaluated.
