Registration Number
NCT05726162
Lead Sponsor
Seoul National University Hospital
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether the effects of biofeedback-based music programs using a smart device application can improve perioperative sleep quality in patients undergoing breast cancer surgery.

Detailed Description

In a biofeedback-based music group, the patient performs an active respiratory intervention session, which induces a slow breathing pattern. If breathing has been slow enough, the automatic mode is activated to provide music based on the patient's own breathing pattern. The investigators will provide biofeedback-based music, which incorporates the patient's respiratory information, while no intervention will be performed in the control group.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The Richards-Campbell Sleep Questionnaire on the day of the surgeryThe daytime after the surgery (POD1)

sleep quality questionnaires that are most commonly used in the ICU setting, RCSQ 1-5 (0-100), Average RCSQ (0-100), higher scores mean a better outcome

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Quality of recovery score 15 (QoR 15)after the surgery (POD1; Postoperative 24 hours)

Korean version of quality of recovery-15 (0-150), higher scores mean a better outcome

Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Indexon the day before the surgery

A self-rated questionnaire which assesses sleep quality and disturbances over a 1-month time interval. C1-7 (0-3), total (0-21), higher scores mean a worse outcome

Hospital Anxiety and Depression scaleon the day before the surgery

Method to measure anxiety and depression in a general medical population of patient, total (0-42), K-HADS depression subscale(0-21), K-HADS anxiety (0-21), higher scores mean a worse outcome

Postoperative Painafter the surgery (POD1; Postoperative 24 hours)

NRS score (0-11) of pain, higher scores mean a worse outcome

Time to fall asleep (minutes)The daytime after the surgery (POD1)

The time to sleep from intervention

Sleep disturbanceThe daytime after the surgery (POD1)

Awakened from sleep (yes/no)

The Richards-Campbell Sleep Questionnaire on the day before the surgeryon the day of the surgery before surgery

sleep quality questionnaires that are most commonly used in the ICU setting, RCSQ 1-5 (0-100), Average RCSQ (0-100), higher scores mean a better outcome

The incidence of postoperative nausea and vomitingafter the surgery (POD1; Postoperative 24 hours)

Postoperative nausea and vomiting

Total sleep time (hours)The daytime after the surgery (POD1)

Duration of sleep

The Richards-Campbell Sleep Questionnaire (baseline, usual patients' pattern)on the day before the surgery

sleep quality questionnaires that are most commonly used in the ICU setting, RCSQ 1-5 (0-100), Average RCSQ (0-100), higher scores mean a better outcome

Analgesics requirementafter the surgery (POD1; Postoperative 24 hours)

Analgesics other than opioid requirement

Sleep quality (0-100)The daytime after the surgery (POD1)

VAS score for sleep quality (0-100), higher scores mean a better outcome

The reasons of sleep disturbanceThe daytime after the surgery (POD1)

Ask the patients who answered "yes" to the question of whether there was a disturbance during sleep.

Postoperative opioid consumptionafter the surgery (POD1; Postoperative 24 hours)

Postoperative opioid requirement
