Summary

The capacity of music to relieve pain has been used in many forms of medicines and has been proven to reduce anxiety, pain and need for analgesia in perioperative setting. However, music listening as an inexpensive and duplicable method has not been studied in the local context. The investigators hereby propose a prospective study to recruit women who undergo surgery to evaluate the effectiveness of music in pain relief and post-operative recovery in KKH; as well as the possibility of implementing music listening in perioperative setting.

The patients will be offered to listen to one out of several pre-determined lists of music of different genres before, and after surgery. Data including pain score, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) score, EuroQol-Five Dimensions questionnaire-using Three Levels (EQ-5D-3L), vital signs, analgesia usage and patient satisfaction will be collected in the perioperative period. The collected data shall also be assessed if they are affected by the presence of music, duration of music listening, and the genre chosen by the patients.

The investigators believe that this study could help determine the clinical relevance of music for pain relief in local setting, which potentially could reduce patient pain and anxiety caused by surgery. This in turn could allow music listening to be adopted as a non-invasive pain relief intervention in local healthcare settings and further improve patient outcome with lower cost and greater convenience as well as safety.
