Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

BACKGROUND - Music therapy is known as an effective adjuvant treatment for the management of physical pain and anxiety. It is recognised in various medical fields. Wound suturing in the Emergency Department is a potentially stressful and painful experience for patients.

OBJECTIVE - To evaluate the effectiveness of music listening (with a musicotherapy application Music Care) on patients pain associated with care during wound suturing in the Adults emergency department.

METHODS - Therefore, a prospective, randomised, open-label, multi-centre interventional will be conducted in two Adults Emergency departments of the Reunion Island University hospitals.

Patients over 18 years old admitted to the Adults Emergency Departments with a suturable wound (at least one stitch), able to understand and express themselves will be included.

The primary outcome is the comparison of maximal VAS score between the two groups. Secondary outcomes are the absolute change in heart rate, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, respiratory rate, absolute change in anxiety score, suture duration related to the number of stitch, overall patient and practitioner satisfaction.

The baseline data collection includes patient age and sex, pain and stress VAS and biological parameters (heart rate, blood pressure, respiratory rate) at admission in box and immediately after suturing.

In order to demonstrate a difference of 10mm on VAS with a standard deviation of 20mm, a power of 90% and an alpha risk of 0,05, the number of subjects required is 192.

A multivariate analysis was performed on the association between exposure : music/no music and the judgement criteria. Subgroup analyses are planned for age, gender, additional analgesia used, location, duration of analgesia used, location, duration of suture and number of stitches.

EXPECTED RESULTS - Thanks to music therapy, a decrease of pain and anxiety associated with sutures in the Emergency room is expected, but also an improvement in the working conditions hospital physicians in the emergency room.
