Summary

The primary objectives for this study are:

1. To demonstrate that music therapy can be an effective means of procedural support for children undergoing botox injections.
2. To explore patient, parent and healthcare personnel satisfaction with music therapy as procedural support.
3. To assess the influence of music therapy on physiologic (blood pressure, oxygen saturation, heart rate) and emotional (crying time) responses of patients.

Conditions

  • Cerebral Palsy

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Music Therapy

The music therapy intervention will consist of approximately 30 minutes of active music making and/or improvisation. The session will begin at least 15 minutes prior to receiving the Botox injections, followed by the necessary time of the procedure and 10 minutes following. During this time the patient will be encouraged to actively engage in a musical activity of his/her choice. After the last injection has been administered, the monitoring and music therapy will continue for up to 10 minutes, and focus on soothing and relaxation rather than on distraction.
