SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Once, at 30 minutes after the patient entered the PACU

Population: 2 participants in the jazz group nad 1 participant in the no music group did not provide an anxiety score.

Upon arrival in the PACU, patient will be asked to rate her level of anxiety using a numeric rating scale from 0-10 (0 indicates no anxiety while 10 indicates extreme anxiety). After wearing headphones for 30 minutes, with either jazz music or no music, the patient will reassess her anxiety level. The difference between the 30 minute score and the baseline will be calculated.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 10, 20 , and 30 minutes after baseline measurement

The patient will be asked to rate her level of pain using a numeric rating scale from 0-10 (0 indicates no pain and 10 indicates extreme pain). Baseline will be value upon entering PACU. The difference between the values at specific times and the baseline value will be calculated.
