Summary

Electroneuromyography (ENMG) is a frequently employed methodology in the diagnosis and monitoring of neuromuscular disorders. It encompasses two principal components: nerve conduction studies (NCS) and needle electromyography (EMG). While NST is conducted with the application of electrical stimulation, which may result in mild discomfort, needle EMG is employed for the examination of muscle electrical activity. It is acknowledged that the procedure may cause discomfort, anxiety and fear in patients, which may have an adverse effect on the test results. A variety of methods have been proposed to mitigate discomfort, including oral ibuprofen, cognitive therapy, and topical agents. Music therapy has demonstrated efficacy in alleviating anxiety and pain during numerous medical procedures; however, its impact on pain and anxiety during needle EMG remains unexplored. This study aims to examine the influence of music therapy on pain and anxiety in individuals undergoing needle EMG. To this end, the effects of needle EMG and music therapy on pain and anxiety will be contrasted in two distinct groups.
