Music Therapy and Sedation for Pain and Anxiety During Oocyte Retrieval
Sponsor: Samsun University
Summary
This study is a prospective observational investigation aimed at examining the effect of music intervention on anxiety and pain levels in patients undergoing the ovum pick-up (OPU) procedure under sedation at an IVF center. The ovum pick-up procedure is a process that is both psychologically stressful and performed under sedation. High levels of anxiety and pain experienced before and during the procedure can reduce patient comfort and increase the need for sedative or analgesic medications. The aim of this study is to evaluate whether listening to music during sedation reduces patients' anxiety levels and to assess its impact on pain perception. The results obtained may demonstrate the potential of music, as a non-pharmacological method, to enhance patient comfort during procedures performed under sedation. The study includes female patients scheduled for the OPU procedure under sedation at an IVF center. Participants will listen to music via headphones during the procedure without undergoing any additional pharmacological or interventional measures. Participation will be voluntary, and written informed consent will be obtained.
