Filter by:How to optimally stimulate the developing brain is still unclear. Executive functions (EF) exhibited substantially stronger far transfer effects in children who learned to play a musical instrument than in children who acquired other arts. What is crucially lacking is a large-scale, long-term genuine randomized controlled trial (RCT) in cognitive neuroscience, comparing musical instrumental training (MIP) to another art form and a control group. Collected data of this proposal will allow, using machine learning, to build a data-driven multivariate model of children's interconnected brain and EF development over the first 2 years of their academic curriculum (6-8 years), with or without music or other art training.
Objectives: This study aimed to determine the effect of music on nursing students' skills, anxiety, self-confidence perception, and vital signs.
Aim of the study is to determine the effects of classical and harp music practice on physiological parameters (heart rate, respiratory rate and oxygen saturation value), cerebral oxygenation value (rSO2) and comfort of premature infants. It is a parallel, three-group randomized controlled trial with a prospective, pretest, posttest experimental design. The study will be carried out in Selcuk University Medical Faculty Hospital Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU). A total of 84 premature babies will be included in the study, including the group to be listened to classical music (n=28), the group to be listened to harp music (n=28), and the control group (n=28). Triple blocks were created in the computer environment so that the premature infants to be included in the study could be assigned to three study groups using the balanced block randomization method (randomization.com). The randomization will be hidden from the researcher conducting the trial until the administration begins. The researcher will be given 84 envelopes and will begin to open the envelopes when they meet the baby. The researcher will learn which group each baby is in just before the application. Data collection tools; newborn Descriptive Information Form, physiological parameter and rSO2 follow-up form, and Premature infant comfort scale. The rSO2 value will be measured with the NIRS monitor. During the data collection phase, the purpose of the study will be explained to the parents of the premature infants by the researcher first, and informed about the study and consent will be obtained from the parents who agreed to participate in the study through the "Informed Voluntary Consent Form". To venture groups (classical and harp music); After feeding, a music box and a decibel meter will be placed in the incubator and classical music will be turned on at 50-55 dB. Just before the music is played, the premature infants physiological parameters, rSO2 and comfort level will be evaluated and recorded. For 30 minutes, music will be played to the baby according to the intervention group (classical and harp music). After 30 minutes, the baby's physiological parameters, rSO2 and comfort level will be evaluated and recorded again. Each session will be held in this way, a total of 15 sessions of music will be applied to thepremature infants, and the baby's physiological parameters, rSO2 and comfort level will be evaluated and recorded before and after each session. The control group is; premature infants in this group are those who take the clinical routine without being exposed to any music. After feeding, the baby's physiological parameters, rSO2 and comfort level will be evaluated and recorded. They will not be exposed to any music and sound for 30 minutes and there will be no intervention. At the 30th minute, the premature infants physiological parameters, rSO2 and comfort level will be evaluated and recorded. Evaluation of the data will be done in the computer environment with the SPSS (Statistical Package for Social Sciences) 22.0 package program. Partial eta squared will be calculated for the effect size and the significance level will be accepted as p<0.05.
The musician profession requires great efforts not only at job level, also social, mental and physical level from the beginning of musical studies. This study investigates the importance and the relationship between the strategies of study, the artistic level and the motivational level in prevalent musculoskeletal diorders in music students. The aim of this study is to check the different areas that can influence study strategies, the importance of motivation, music students' deficiencies and assess the contribution of physiotherapy during music studies. To do this, a questionnaire will be sent to students from different conservatories and master's degrees.
This proposed study aims to provide a definitive answer to whether music training benefits brain development, particularly brain inhibition control circuitry and its related health outcomes using a randomized control trial design. In the study, 114 Hispanic children between ages 6-8 from underserved communities of LA will be randomly assigned to a 24-month:(1) community-focused after school music training group focused on a traditional strings curriculum at the Colburn school in Los Angeles (MG) or (2) a control group (CG) after-school program comprising of visual arts, book club, ethnic and cultural studies and theater without specific focus on systematic music training or sports. Imaging data will be collected at before and after the intervention (24 months), behavioral assessments will be conducted before the intervention and yearly afterwards, and mid-intervention evaluations will be performed every six months throughout the study.
In the study, lullabies and classical music played to preterm babies during orogastric tube feeding; It will be tried to determine the effect on cerebral oxygenation level, vital signs and comfort levels.
Aims: To evaluate the perception and enjoyment of music in cochlear implant (CI) users using specific questionnaires, and comparing their results with a control group of subjects with normal hearing (NH). To analyze the musical abilities of implantees using the musical tool Meludia, and compare the results with the control group. To perfom a voice analysis in implanted patients, compare it with their NH peers, and check if an association with musical perception is observed. Design: Cross-sectional study, both the CI recipients and NH control subjects were assessed once. Setting and subjects: Pre-or perilingual patients aged 6 to 17 years old, and postlingual adults who underwent cochlear implantation from 2000 to January 2023 at La Paz University Hospital. Control group is set up with their NH peers. Study Variables: Socio-demographic and clinical (current age, age at implantation, sex, educational level) variables will be collected, as well as hearing loss (aetiology, duration of deafness), and surgical (type of implant, complete or partial insertion of the electrodes, date of surgery) data. Data from CI fitting (number of active electrodes, type of audio processor) and hearing outcomes with the CI will also be reviewed. Outcome variables: Specific musical skills questionnaires for adults: Munich Music Questionnaire (MuMu) and Music Related Quality of Life Questionnaire (MuRQoL), which will be validated. Musical questionnaire developed specifically for subjects between 6-17 years old. Musical tool (Meludia) to assess musical perception. Praat software for voice analysis. Analysis of the impact of the different audiological, sociodemographic and clinical variables on hearing outcomes, and on musical perception after cochlear implantation, and comparison with the NH control group.
The purpose of this study is to test the effect of a twice daily, 60-minute, nurse initiated, music listening intervention on patients followed in the ICU with MV support as compared to patients who receive care as usual and ear plugs.
The aim of this study is to examine the effect of oxytocin massage and music performed immediately after birth on breastfeeding.
Anxiety, fright, stress and pain have always been sources of emotional distress for patients undergoing invasive procedures in clinical settings. Experts have long used traditional methods such as analgesics and anxiolytics to address these issues. But, backed by a movement aiming at reducing the use of pharmacological products, alternative interventions, including music therapy, have gained some steam in recent years. These interventions may have the ability to reduce pain and anxiety while increasing relaxation, coping skills and the overall experience of the procedure. For orthopedic surgery, anesthetics could propose general anesthesia or locoregional anesthesia. The upper limb orthopedic surgery is often performed under locoregional anesthesia and in the ambulatory procedure. However, with the known exacerbating effects of stress and anxiety on pain, the affective experience of the patient can be negatively influenced. In order to mitigate these problems, various types of sedatives and anxiolytics and even low-dose propofol can be used. The Montpellier Regional University Hospital, along with the Music Care Company developed a software so as to standardize this technique around these recommendations. This model demonstrated its efficacy in both acute and chronic pain settings. Indeed, a single music therapy session was found to be effective for decreasing anxiety and promoting relaxation, as indicated by decreases in heart rate, blood pressure, BIS and respiratory rate over the intervention period in intubated patients during weaning phase. Also, a patient-controlled music intervention administered by Music Care has shown to alleviate negative psychological (e.g., depression) and physiological (e.g., pain and discomfort) outcomes and, very importantly, to reduce the consumption of medication in patients with chronic pain due to lumbar pain, fibromyalgia, inflammatory or neurological diseases. Given the recent availability of a standardized and proven delivery method of music therapy (i.e. MUSIC-CARE), the principal aim of this randomized clinical trial is to assess the effect of this music therapy program delivered by application compared to usual playlist music on drug consumptions and physiological parameters, pain, anxiety levels in patients undergoing forearm orthopedic surgery under locoregional anesthesia.
