“…This increase accompagnies an ageing and expanding population, but also reflects new medical knowledge within the area of cardiac health care. As a consequence, there has been a corresponding increase in the number of related procedures and complications involving the current devices, such as changing the batteries or generator, lead revision and lead extraction (Peal, Runnett, Thomas, & Ripley, 2018;). The CIED system comprises a pulse generator and electronic leads which stabilize the heart rate.…”

After almost 20 years with clinical work as my main focus as a music therapist, the last years' transition towards research and the academics has been highly motivating, engaging, and inspiring, but also challenging, frustrating, and, not least, personally developing. I wish to thank the PhD program and Centre for Research in Music and Health at the Norwegian Academy of Music for giving me the privileged opportunity of working with this project within a full-time PhD scholarship. I am deeply grateful for all the help and support I have received along the way.First of all, I wish to thank my two supervisors, professor Gro Trondalen and professor Sigrun Halvorsen for walking the distance so patiently with me. They have both been available for questions and guidance throughout the whole period, shared their knowledge, provided caring support, and read a severe number of mails and manuscripts. A special thanks to Gro for helping me not losing focus too much during the ride.

“…The past few decades have seen a growing demand for the implantation of cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIED), such as pacemakers and implantable cardiac defibrillators (ICDs). This is due to an ageing population and recent guidelines which recommend indications for these electronic devices (Kusumoto et al, 2017; Peal et al, 2018). Accompanying the increase in number of implantations, there has been a corresponding increase in the need for pacemaker and ICD lead extractions (i.e.…”

This article presents and discusses a clinical music therapy protocol for use during an invasive cardiac procedure and the theoretical rationale behind it. The protocol was developed for a specific invasive cardiac procedure performed transvenously with local anaesthesia: cardiac implantable electronic device lead extraction. The music listening intervention presented in the protocol aims to optimise stress and pain management for patients through patient involvement, communication, individualised music listening and relaxation techniques. The Music Therapist remains present throughout the peri-operative phase (in the operating theatre during the operation). The music is chosen from a limited set of prepared playlists through a process involving assessment and patient preference. Biological, psychological and social components are integrated into the protocol, which is also informed by the theory of music therapy as procedural support, the neuromatrix theory of pain and receptive music therapy techniques. The protocol was developed to be standardised for implementation into the existing medical procedure, yet flexible enough to meet individual patient needs. It is the cornerstone of the research protocol of an ongoing randomised controlled trial at the Department of Cardiology at Oslo University Hospital Ulleval. Results of the randomised controlled trial, focussing on quantitative efficacy outcomes, are expected in 2020.

An artificial pacemaker is a medical device that can generate electrical impulses which are delivered by electrodes to maintain the controlled rhythm of the heartbeats. Such a medical device can assist for extensive period of time and thereby regulates the pumping capacity of the heart. Usually, the need for a permanent pacemaker implantation arises from the occurrence of cardiac diseases such as failure of impulse formation (sick sinus syndrome) and/or conduction (A-V block). Functionally, a pacemaker comprises of at least three parts: an electrical pulse generator, a power source (battery) and an electrode (lead) system. This paper aims to provide a design of the trainer board of a typical pacemaker, which generates a QRS pulse and displays it on an oscilloscope which will help understand the basic components of the device for educational purposes. To do so, an extensive literature review was undertaken to comprehend the theory behind the design of a pacemaker. Further, the paper describes the practical methodology adopted in the design of the pacemaker and the achieved results of this study while making suggestions for future work.
