“…Beneficial effects of music therapy have been well documented in decreasing perception of pain, anxiety and need for additional analgesia in the perioperative and postoperative periods in patients undergoing surgery as well as in patients undergoing short procedures such as urodynamic studies 19,28,29 . Similarly, improvement in pain tolerance and pain relief has also been reported in laboring women with the use of music therapy 30,31 .…”

“…Studies postulate that music induces dopamine release in the brain and causes stimulation of the reward centers in the brain reducing the patients' perception of pain 16,17 . An alternative theory hypothesizes that music activates the cingulo‐frontal cortex to alleviate pain, mitigate anxiety, and enhances attention shifting by distracting the patient from negative stimuli 18–20 . Music therapy has been utilized more commonly for perioperative pain relief and in patients with chronic pain due to malignancy 18,21 .…”

Aim Assisted reproductive technique (ART) has emerged as the highest form of treatment for infertile couples. Transvaginal oocyte retrieval is currently performed under conscious sedation in most centers. Since it is a relatively painful procedure, a number of adjuvant therapies have been tried to improve pain relief during the procedure. Music therapy is a nonpharmacological technique that has been successfully used for pain relief in perioperative and chronic pain of malignancy. However, studies evaluating its usefulness in ART‐related procedures are limited. We evaluated the effectiveness of music therapy as an adjuvant for pain relief during oocyte retrieval. Methods This was a randomized controlled trial conducted at a tertiary level teaching hospital in South India from September 2020 to March 2021. All women undergoing transvaginal oocyte retrieval were randomized to receive either music therapy along with conscious sedation (Group A) or conscious sedation alone (Group B). The primary outcome was postprocedure pain score assessed by the visual analog scale. Secondary outcomes included anxiety score. Results A total of 109 women were randomized into Group A (54 women) and Group B (55 women). The postprocedure pain score was comparable between the two study groups (6.0, interquartile range [IQR] 4 to 6 vs. 6.0, IQR 4 to 6; p = 0.69). However, anxiety levels were found to be significantly lower in women who were offered music therapy (3.0, IQR 1 to 5 vs. 4.0, IQR 3 to 6; p = 0.004). Conclusion The use of music therapy as an adjuvant to conscious sedation was found to have no significant benefit in pain relief during oocyte retrieval.

Extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy (ESWL) is a method recommended by guidelines for the noninvasive treatment of kidney stones and upper ureter stones. 1 The procedure had been increasingly performed since its initial use 40 years ago. 2,3 ESWL is the first-line treatment, especially in treating <2 cm kidney stones and <1 cm ureter stones. 4 It is a pretty successful treatment method and is available now in many urology clinics. One of the factors affecting its success is the compliance of the patients. Decreasing pain levels and anxiety sensations is important for patients to provide a good observation. Guidelines strongly recommend appropriate pain relief during the procedure in reference to related studies. 5,6 The main purpose of pain prevention is to avoid undesired movements and disrupted focus because of excessive respiratory activity. Inability to complete the procedure because of pain intolerance also decreases the procedure's success rate. 7 The use of music as a therapeutic method has existed since ancient times. Studies have shown that music can reduce stress and anxiety during medical procedures by distracting attention. 8 While music alone is not a means of treatment, it is often used as a supportive method. 9 Music has been indicated to suppress

“…Several studies have examined music's potential in reducing pain, particularly in urological procedures done in clinics that are not typically performed under anesthesia (10)(11)(12)(13)(14). However, many of these studies focused on either a single type of procedure (8,10,11) or specific genre of music, usually classical (12).…”

Background: Listening to preferred music can provide distraction and reduce the feeling of pain and negative emotions associated with an uncomfortable experience. Several studies have examined how music can reduce pain and anxiety related to urological procedures that are not typically performed under anesthesia, such as cystoscopy, cystoscopy with stent pull, and urodynamic studies. To our knowledge, no studies have been done to examine the effect of listening to preferred music generalized across a variety of these procedures. Therefore, we looked to combine multiple factors from prior studies to determine if listening to music of a patient's choice would decrease pain during various outpatient clinic urological procedures, and to examine differences between men and women.Methods: This was a single investigator series randomized controlled trial with 91 subjects in an academic outpatient urology clinic. After applying exclusion criteria, eligible patients were randomized to a music group or non-music group via coin flip. Fifty-three patients were in the music group (16 men, 37 women) and 38 patients were in the non-music group (16 men, 22 women). Subjects in the music group selected a song to play during the procedure, which was stopped at the conclusion of the procedure. Pre-and postprocedure Visual Analog Pain Scale were completed by the subjects of each group and subsequently analyzed.Where appropriate either Pearson's Chi-Square or Independent-Sample t-test were used to compare the groups as well as randomized-repeated analysis of variance (ANOVA).Results: For men, pain scores worsened in both groups, however the music group experienced a statistically significant increase in pain (mean change =1.0, P=0.05), while the non-music group only clinically worsened (mean change =0.38, P=0.459). For women, the music group noticed an improvement in the pain score (mean change =−0.14, P=0.590), while the non-music group significantly worsened (mean change =1.14, P=0.008).Conclusions: Women who listened to music of their choosing experienced significant improvement in overall perceived pain compared to women who did not listen to music. Women may benefit from music as a novel tool to alleviate pain during outpatient clinic urological procedures.
