Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The study was conducted as a randomized controlled experimental research to examine the effect of nature sounds and music on vital signs and anxiety levels of hemodialysis patients.

The study was conducted between September 6, 2019 and March 21, 2020 with 75 patients who received treatment in the hemodialysis units of three hospitals, one university, one education research and one state hospital in Antalya province, met the inclusion criteria and consented to participate in the study. Patients were homogenously divided into intervention (nature sound group n=25 and music group n=25) and control (n=25) groups on the basis of age, gender and hemodialysis duration. Patients in the intervention group were subjected to nature sounds/music during the hemodialysis procedure, while patients in the control group were not subjected to any intervention during the procedure. The data were collected by face-to-face interview technique using the "Descriptive Characteristics Form", "Vital Signs Monitoring Form", "State Anxiety Inventory" and "Trait Anxiety Inventory". Ethics committee approval, institutional permissions and written consent of the patients were obtained for the implementation of the study. Number, percentage, mean, standard deviation, minimum and maximum, the the Shapiro Wilk normality test, One-Way Analysis of Variance, Chi-Square tests, the Kruskal Wallis test, Dunn-Bonferroni test, Tukey HSD, Three-Way Analysis of Variance and Bonferroni Corrected Two Ratio Z test were employed in the evaluation of the data.

Assigned Interventions

It was explained to the patients in the nature sounds group that nature sounds would be played for 30 minutes in three HD sessions for one week, starting from the beginning of the session. Afterwards, the patients were informed about the usage of the Mp3 player and in-ear headphones, they were demonstrated that they could adjust the volume to the level they desired, and it was stated that they should not detach the headphones until the 30-minute recording was over. The patients listened to nature sounds for 30 minutes in three HD sessions for one week under the supervision of the researcher.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Nature sounds

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

Nature sounds would be played for 30 minutes in three HD sessions for one week, starting from the beginning of the session. Afterwards, the patients were informed about the usage of the Mp3 player and in-ear headphones, they were demonstrated that they could adjust the volume to the level they desired, and it was stated that they should not detach the headphones until the 30-minute recording was over.

Control Group

Patients in the control group were not intervened by the researcher during the HD sessions. Before the first HD session started, the "Descriptive Characteristics Form" and "Trait Anxiety Scale" were performed by the researcher while the patients were in the waiting room. Then, in every three HD sessions for one week, when the patients went to their beds, their vital signs were measured and recorded on the "Vital Signs Monitoring Form" and the "State Anxiety Scale" was administered just before the HD treatment session was started. Then, the vital signs of the patients were measured and recorded on the "Vital Signs Monitoring Form" at the 30th minute, 1st, 2nd, 3rd hour of the HD session and immediately after the end of the HD session. At the same time, the "State Anxiety Scale" was performed again immediately after the end of the HD session. The patient was then transferred out of the unit.
