Music Therapy in Pulmonary Rehabilitation

This study explores the effects of music therapy intervention on anxiety and time perception during pulmonary rehabilitation.

Background： In recent years, in many domestic and foreign music therapy literature, it can be found that the intervention of music therapy can alleviate the anxiety of patients in the treatment, surgery, and even patients with critical care using ventilators, and then affect the patient's physiological indicators, in addition, there are also studies that mention that background music affects people's waiting time perception, reduces people's waiting time, can reduce the generation of negative emotions, and improve the quality of hospital medical care. The objective of this study was to explore the effects of music therapy on anxiety and time perception during pulmonary rehabilitation. Study Design： This case is a one-year single-center, prospective block randomizied trial. Methods： The study is expected to be 50 people, randomly assigned to two groups (control group, experimental group) will be carried out in the pulmonary rehabilitation room on the sixth floor of the Fu Jen Catholic University Hospital, using the Baker Anxiety Scale, physiological monitoring instruments and cardiac output monitor as tools to test the effects of anxiety sensations, physiological responses (heartbeat, breathing times, blood pressure, heart rate variability) and perceptual time in two situations of interventional music therapy and non-interventional music therapy during the rehabilitation of negative pressure respirators. Effect： It was mainly found that the intervention of music therapy can reduce anxiety, number of heartbeats, number of breaths and blood pressure, and shorten the perceptual time of patients with pulmonary rehabilitation.
