简要总结
This study aims at evaluating whether music therapy intervention is effective in decreasing psychological (distress) and physical symptoms (pain) in patients with suspected or diagnosed lung cancer undergoing minimally invasive lung surgery.
详细描述
A diagnosis of cancer may result in extensive emotional, physical and social suffering. Moreover, surgical treatment of lung cancer represents itself a stressful event. It is important that cancer care incorporates services that help meet patients' psychological, social and spiritual needs. Music therapy interventions have been used to alleviate symptoms and treatment side effects in cancer patients and their efficacy has been demonstrated in various settings. Within the distinction between music therapy (a personalized approach based on the interaction with a trained music therapist) and music medicine (with pre-recorded music), the best efficacy results have been reported with music therapy.
The use of music listening is growing in the field of music therapy intervention because of the impact musical contents can have on physiological, psychological and behavioural levels.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate whether music therapy intervention is effective in decreasing psychological (distress) and physical symptoms (pain) in patients with suspected or diagnosed lung cancer undergoing minimally invasive lung surgery. Secondary objectives are the evaluation of the decrease of the serum cortisol as biomarker of stress and the request of additional doses of analgesics for pain control.
