The effects of the music intervention on anxiety, pain, vital signs, and patient satisfaction in intravitreal injection: a randomized controlled study
Öz
Aim: This study aimed to investigate the effects of music intervention applied in two different periods Before intravitreal injection (IVTI) on anxiety, pain perception, vital signs, and
satisfaction in patients receiving intravitreal injection..
Methods: This randomized controlled study was conducted with a total of three groups including two music intervention groups (pre-IVTI (group 1) and during IVTI (group 2)) and a
control group (Group 1 n= 73, Group 2 n = 74, Control Group n =72). The patients’ pain was evaluated with the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) pain, anxiety with the Visual Analog Scale
Anxiety (VAS-A), and satisfaction with the IVTI procedure with a 5-point Likert scale.
Results: The anxiety and pain scores were lower in groups 1 and 2 than in the control group (p<0.001). All three groups had low pain levels when their VAS-Pain scores were compared immediately and 15 minutes after IVTI. Group 2 was found to have a significant difference between the two measurements (pb =0.009). Further, Groups 1 and 2 had significantly higher patient satisfaction with the IVTI procedure than the control group (p<0.001).
Conclusion: The study results showed that music intervention has positive effects on anxiety, pain perception, and satisfaction in patients receiving IVTI therapy. As a result, we recommend the use of listening to music on patients before and during the IVTI procedure.
