Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Studies have suggested that music listening has the potential to reduce feelings of pain and anxiety in critical care patients, as well as improved autonomic physiological outcomes such as heart rate, respiratory rate and blood pressure.
The EMPIRE study will seek to explore the effects described above in greater detail. 30 patients from the Adult Intensive Care Unit (AICU) at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital will be recruited to undergo a single 40-minute session of supervised music listening, in which they will be encouraged to request their favourite music if they are able. Before and after the session, patients will be asked to describe their pain and anxiety on a rating of 1-10, and the patient's level of agitation/sedation will also be measured, so that changes in these can be evaluated. In addition, physiological data such as heart rate, respiratory rate, blood pressure and level of sedation (bispectral index score) will be measured throughout the listening session, and later analysed for significant changes in relation to the music that was being played. Finally, a 3-month follow-up interview will be conducted to assess the influence of the music on participants' experience of the Adult Intensive Care Unit.
