Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to compare if playing music before and during an embryo transfer can make a difference for women who are going through a frozen embryo transfer as part of a medical procedure called assisted reproduction technology (ART). The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does listening to music before and while having the embryo transfer make patients feel more satisfied and less anxious? - Does listening to music before and during the embryo transfer affect how likely it is for the woman to get pregnant? Before the embryo transfer, the participants will listen to music through earphones or speakers. During the embryo transfer, the participants will listen to music through speakers. During the embryo transfer, the comparison group will not listen to music and will receive the usual care. The aim is to see if listening to music before and during the embryo transfer can help make the procedure better for women.
In the literature, music plays an energizing, soothing, stimulating and awakening role for the newborn, and at the same time, music has the potential to wake up a lethargic and withdrawn baby and calm a crying, restless baby. In addition, it is stated that relaxing music in the early postpartum period supports breastfeeding behaviors of mother and baby. It is stated that lullabies positively affect the newborn's relaxation, falling asleep, and mother-baby communication. however, it facilitates sleep due to its monotonous, emotional and repetitive melody structure, slow tempo and relaxing effect. The sound called white noise is a humming, monotonous and constantly used sound that suppresses the disturbing sounds coming from the environment and has a calming feature. In the literature, it has been found that white noise played to infants with colic reduces crying. The aim of this study is to determine the effects of lullabies and white noise music played during breastfeeding of the newborn on newborn stress, breastfeeding success and mother's comfort. This study was planned as a randomized controlled trial with term newborns 24 hours after birth.
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.
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.
