Post-surgical Pain Clinical Trial
Official title:
The Effects of Music Therapy in the Recovery of Patients Undergoing Spine Surgery
The investigators are studying music therapy as an incentive and adjunct to a comprehensive spine surgery rehabilitation-recuperation program. Through the use of music therapy psychosocial support is motivated by the clinical use of music. The program will investigate the use of music therapy as an option for managing symptoms associated with spine surgery recovery. The proposed program will investigate the use of music therapy as an integrative treatment within Beth Israel's Department of Spine Surgery.This study will investigate the effects of music therapy in managing spine surgery recuperation and to reduce the intensity and experience of pain. Outcomes will include: Pain (pain medication dosage and patient report) using a CAS Color Analysis Scale and the VAS Pain Rating Scale, level of self-reliance/independence using physical therapy assessment scale, cooperation through evaluating number of times patient declined/accepted services, length of stay, patient satisfaction/patient report, level of kinesiophobia using the Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia and anxiety/depression using the HADS during the period post-spine surgery.(see attached scales in Appendix section)
The proposed research will combine traditional medical care with an integrative model of
care; music therapy will be an integrative intervention and we will study the effects of
music therapy interventions, which include: clinical improvisation, rhythm which can enhance
assisted walk and music-assisted physical movement which may encourage patients to
experience a greater tolerance to pain, improving gait, range of motion, endurance, and the
ability to relax, motivation to participate in daily activities.
Methodology:The primary goals are to assess pain, independence, compliance, length of stay,
patient satisfaction/patient report, level of kinesiophobia and anxiety/depression related
to medical condition during the period post-spine surgery.
Design of the Study:This study will use quantitative and qualitative methodologies. A
randomized control design that will include two groups of patients that will be targeted to
include up to 60 male and female patients.
The experimental group will receive music therapy and standard care and a second group will
serve as a wait-listed control, receiving only standard care. Patients with undergoing ASP,
PSF or A/PSF will be placed with consent randomly into the experimental or control group.
Patients belonging to the experimental group will receive one music therapy session after
surgery.
For both groups, the VAS Pain Rating Scale, the HADS - Hospitalization Anxiety/Depression
Scale, the Tampa Scale for Kinesiophobia, and the Color Analysis Scale will be introduced.
For both groups of patients measurements will be logged before and after the music therapy
session, or no intervention during the same time period.
Procedure: Patients will be recruited by the attending doctor, nurse, physical therapist
and/or social worker. Patients in the experimental group will participate in an active
music-listening and active music-making session post-spine surgery.
The music therapy session will last approximately 30 minutes and will encourage patients to
engage in active music-making to release pain, and to reduce anxiety/fear related to surgery
and recuperation. The music therapy sessions will include:
1. Warm up: Verbal or musical discourse
2. Treatment section: Based upon assessment of patient's needs during the warm up,
treatment options will include the use of live music and either:
Tension release/relaxation through entrained music visualization or Incentive-based
play through clinical improvisation or rhythmic drumming
3. Closure/Integration (if awake) to reflect upon the session and issues that may have
arisen.
