Summary

This study aims to investigate the effects of music intervention on subjective anxiety and physiological indicators, including heart rate, blood pressure, and heart rate variability, in first-time ambulatory surgery patients, and to compare the differential effects between self-selected and standardized music interventions.

Conditions

  • Anxiety
  • Heart Rate Variability (HRV)
  • Heart Rate
  • Blood Pressure

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Self-selected Music intervention

This study adopted a randomized controlled trial (RCT) design. Eligible outpatients undergoing surgery for the first time were recruited and randomly assigned, using block randomization, into three groups: a self-selected music group, a fixed-music group, and a control group. During the intervention period, participants in the music groups listened to music (self-selected or fixed) for 10 minutes in the preoperative nursing waiting area, while the control group received routine care. Data were collected at three time points: before surgery (T0), during the intervention (T1), and after surgery (T2).

BEHAVIORAL

Fixed-music Music intervention

Participants assigned to the standardized music group will listen to pre-selected classical music provided by the research team, aimed at promoting relaxation and focused attention. The selected music maintains a stable tempo of 60-70 beats per minute and is delivered at a sound level below 60 dB to ensure comfort and safety. Music will be administered via headphones under standardized conditions. The timing, duration, listening environment, and outcome measurement procedures will be identical to those used in the personalized music group to ensure consistency of intervention across study arms
