2. ULUSLARARASIN İÇ HASTALIKLARI KONGRESİ, İzmir, Türkiye, 17 - 19 Aralık 2020, cilt.6, ss.65-67, (Özet Bildiri)
Aim: The study was conducted as a randomized experiment in order to specify the effect of music therapy on Anxiety and physiological parameters of patients with ICD.
Methods: The research was conducted in a training and research hospital in Istanbul. The participants were 60 patients with ICD who stayed in the cardiology clinics from June 2019 to November 2019 and accepted to attend to the research voluntarily. The total number of subjects was determined by G*Power. Patients were divided into two groups that are experimental and control groups according to their patient numbers. Experimental group was composed of 30 patients who have even patient numbers and Control group consisted of 30 patients who have odd patient numbers. In the beginning, each group was requested to fill STAI and their physiological parameters were measured. Then, only experimental group listened 30 minutes of the Ussak Maqam via headphones. Afterwards, STAI was re-filled by each group once more. In the following one and a half hours, patient physiological parameters were measured every 30 minutes. (30th, 60th, 90th) patient physiologic parameters of patients were measured with the interval of 30 minutes. Descriptive statistics, Mann Whitney U, Friedman, İndependent Sample T, Dependent Sample T and Bonferroni tests were used to analyse data. p <0.05 was considered significant.
Result: Intra-group result shows that there is a decrease in state-trait anxiety scores (p <0.001), systolic blood pressure, respiration and heart rate of the experimental group (p <0.05). Inter-group comparison states that state anxiety, systolic and diastolic blood pressure of experimental group decreased significantly (p <0.001).
Conclusion: Music therapy reduces state and trait anxiety in patients with ICD. It also positively affects vital
parameters such as systolic blood pressure, respiration and heart rate.
