Music and Dreams During Sedation for Surgery
This study explores whether listening to personalized music during sedation for surgery affects your dreams and comfort. Researchers will play music through headphones while you're sedated and ask about your experience afterward.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are at least 19 years old
- Your surgery uses spinal anesthesia or a nerve block, not general anesthesia (you'll be awake but sedated)
- You are in generally good health (American Society of Anesthesiologists status I, II, or III)
- You can wear closed-back headphones during your procedure
- You are willing and able to answer questions and fill out forms after surgery
- You don't have severe hearing loss and can safely receive propofol sedation

This study tests whether listening to music during an endoscopy (a tube with a camera used to look inside your digestive tract) can make the procedure more comfortable and less stressful. Participants will wear headphones and listen to music while the procedure is done under sedation.
This study tests whether listening to music around the time of surgery can lower anxiety and pain, reduce how much pain medicine you need, and improve satisfaction. You may be asked to fill out brief questionnaires before and after your procedure.
This study tests whether playing personalized music during and after specific surgeries can reduce “emergence agitation,” a period of distress or confusion as a patient wakes up from anesthesia. It may help children feel calmer by using music they connect with.
This trial studies whether playing music during a “wide-awake” hand surgery helps comfort or experience during the procedure. You may be offered music while you’re awake and having local numbing medicine.
This trial tests whether listening to music during breast surgery can reduce the amount of anesthesia medication needed. If you're having breast surgery and can use headphones, this study may help make your experience more comfortable.
This study tests whether playing calming music and reducing operating room noise during surgery helps children need less anesthesia and pain medication. Researchers hope this simple change might make surgery safer and recovery easier for kids.
