Abstract

Introduction: With the widespread use of the radial artery in catheterization procedures, radial artery spasm (RAS) is frequently considered an undesirable event. It is known that anxiety increases RAS, and listening to music helps individuals control anxiety during the procedure. This study aimed to investigate the effects of music concerts on RAS.

Methods: In this prospective study, imaging and interventional coronary catheterization procedures using the radial artery were included. One group listened to a musical recital during the procedure, while the other group was treated in a quiet environment. The demographics, procedural parameters, and complications of both groups were compared.

Results: The study included a total of 147 patients, with an average age of 51.6 ± 11.1 years. Of these, 78 patients (53%) listened to music, while 69 patients (46.9%) underwent catheterization in a quiet environment. The impact of music therapy on the RAS was found to be significant (11.5% vs. 20.3%; p=0.035). While music therapy showed a potential to reduce RAS rates, its effect was not statistically significant in multivariate analysis (p=0.055).

Conclusion: Music is a feasible, simple, and inexpensive method for reducing anxiety levels in patients. Listening to music during catheterization can reduce procedural discomfort and the frequency of undesirable events by helping people control their anxiety.

期刊介绍： Current Vascular Pharmacology publishes clinical and research-based reviews/mini-reviews, original research articles, letters, debates, drug clinical trial studies and guest edited issues to update all those concerned with the treatment of vascular disease, bridging the gap between clinical practice and ongoing research. Vascular disease is the commonest cause of death in Westernized countries and its incidence is on the increase in developing countries. It follows that considerable research is directed at establishing effective treatment for acute vascular events. Long-term treatment has also received considerable attention (e.g. for symptomatic relief). Furthermore, effective prevention, whether primary or secondary, is backed by the findings of several landmark trials. Vascular disease is a complex field with primary care physicians and nurse practitioners as well as several specialties involved. The latter include cardiology, vascular and cardio thoracic surgery, general medicine, radiology, clinical pharmacology and neurology (stroke units).
