Background:
This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of music therapy and deep relaxation technique (DRT) in reducing perioperative anxiety, a challenging occurrence that can negatively impact treatment results and patient distress, and mitigate the adverse effects of anxiety-reducing drugs.
Methodology:
The study involved 90 patients, including 28 using DRT, 31 using music therapy, and 31 without intervention. The Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale was employed to measure perioperative anxiety levels. DRT, music therapy, and routine interventions were used.
Results:
The study found a significant difference in pretest and posttest perioperative anxiety scores between the DRT and music therapy groups. Notably, there was a significant difference between the music therapy and control groups and a highly significant difference between the control and DRT groups.
Conclusion:
The study found that both music therapy and DRT can effectively reduce perioperative anxiety in patients undergoing spinal surgeries.
