THE EFFECT OF MUSİC THERAPY IN HEMODİALYSİS PATİENTS
Sponsor: Izmir Tinaztepe University
Summary
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of music therapy on pain intensity, anxiety levels, and hemodynamics (vital signs) in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients undergoing maintenance hemodialysis. This study employs a quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest control group, conducted among patients receiving routine hemodialysis treatment at the DaViVa Göztepe Dialysis Center. Participants in the intervention group receive music therapy applied in 30-minute sessions at the beginning of each hour throughout their hemodialysis treatments (specifically during vascular access/cannulation and dialytic sessions), while the control group receives standard nursing care. Objective physiological parameters along with validated subjective pain and anxiety scales are measured before and after the intervention to determine the therapeutic efficacy of music as a non-pharmacological nursing intervention.
