About this trial

This is an interventional supportive care trial for Preterm Infant

Eligibility Criteria

224 Days - 258 Days (Child)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Postmenstrual age of 32-36+6 weeks.
  • Appropriate weight for gestational age.
  • To have signed an informed consent to participate in the study.
  • Have reached clinical stability.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Have nervous system diseases or obvious nervous system symptoms.
  • Severe congenital diseases.

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm 2

Arm Type

Experimental

No Intervention

Arm Label

music therapy

control

Arm Description

The infant will receive music therapy over 3 consecutive days and will obtain standard care as usual

The infant does not receive any sound emission because the headphone will be turned off and will obtain standard care as experimental

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

change of brain oxygen saturation
near-infrared spectroscopy to monitor brain oxygen saturation

Secondary Outcome Measures

Burdjalov Scores of amplitude integrated electroencephalogram
electroencephalogram to monitor brain electronic activity, using Burdjalov developed cerebral function monitoring scoring system which including: (1)record continuity: assessed through observing the overall density of the sample tracing, scores ranged from 0 to 2;(2) presence of cyclic changes:refers to the emergence and progression of periods during monitoring,scores ranged from 0 to 5;(3)degree of voltage amplitude depression:estimated as the average lower microvolt level during the recording epoch ,scores ranged from 0 to 2;(4)bandwidth:reflects a combination of the voltage span (peak-to-trough) of the tracing and the magnitude of the electroencephalogram depression,scores ranged from 0 to 4. The minimum possible total score was 0, and the maximum was 13. Scores progressively increased with central nerve system maturation.
change of heart rates
monitors recording heart rates
change of respiratory rates
monitors recording respiratory rates
change of pluse oxygen saturation
monitors recording transcutaneous oxygen saturation

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
Music has been consistently shown magic power in brain plasticity. Several study proved music can influence electronic activity of preterm infants' brain, while none study covered region oxygen metabolic. The investigators aim to discover the effects of music therapy on near-infrared spectroscopy and electroencephalogram in premature infants.
Detailed Description
Previous studies of music therapy have made some achievements for adult Parkinson's disease, schizophrenia, depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress and pediatric autism spectrum disorders. For newborns, studies mainly focused on the effects of basic vital signs, feeding and pain score decreasing. So far, no studies evaluating the effect of music therapy on brain oxygen metabolic and electronic activity.
