Summary

This randomized controlled trial investigates the effects of music played during liver donor surgery on hemodynamic parameters and cortisol levels. Ninety participants were divided into three groups: music, silence (with headphones but no sound), and a control group with no intervention. The study aimed to evaluate whether music can reduce stress-related physiological responses during surgery.

Conditions

  • Surgical Stress Response

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Music Listening Intervention

Participants listened to a playlist of 5-6 music tracks they personally selected before surgery. The music was played continuously for 30 minutes through Bluetooth headphones during liver transplantation. Volume was kept at 65 decibels.

BEHAVIORAL

Silence with Headphones

Participants wore Bluetooth headphones during the surgery, but no audio was played. This intervention was designed to control for the effect of wearing headphones and isolating ambient operating room sounds.
