Abstract

Objective

This study aimed to examine the effects of maternal voice and music therapy on pain and physiological parameters during the endotracheal suctioning process in intubated children.

Design

The study was a single-centre, randomized controlled trial.

Setting

The Thoracic-Cardiovascular Surgery Intensive Care Unit of a University Hospital in Turkey.

Methods

This study involved three groups of 27 children, aged between 2 and 36 months. All three groups, including the control group (CG), received the standard suction protocol before, during, and after each intervention. Additionally, the children in the music therapy (MT) group listened to music titled ‘The Happiest Child’, while the children in the mother's voice (MV) group listened to recordings of their mothers' voices. The variables assessed are pain and physiological parameters.

Results

When the pain results of the children were evaluated, the pain score of the children in the control group was found to be significantly higher than children in the mother's voice and music voice group (p < .05). It was determined that the lowest FLACC Pain Scale value was in the mother's voice group (p < .05). When the physiological parameters results were evaluated, it was determined that the physiological measurement values of the children in the experimental group were positively affected (p < .05), there was a significant difference between the control group (p < .05) and the most effective result was in the mother's voice group (p < .05).

Conclusions

The application of mother's voice and music therapy to children before, during and after the aspiration procedure reduces the pain of children, positively affects their physiological parameters and improves the quality of nursing care.

Implications for clinical practice

This study provides a scientific basis for nursing practices in clinical settings and contributes to clinical practice by shedding light on future evidence-based studies.
