“…The overall HRV has strong prognostic value in adverse cardiovascular events [23]. The finding of increase in overall HRV in the low-altitude area in this study is in accordance with the general notion of feeling relaxed and comfortable during low-altitude tourism, because the sensation of comfort and relaxation is often correlated with increased vagal modulation [7,13]. Thus, mountain tourism in low-altitude area within 1080 MASL may have good effect on human physiological fitness of the sea-level residents in terms of autonomic nervous modulation and blood pressure regulation.…”

“…Contrary to the possible illness at higher altitudes, most sea-level residents seem to experience more relaxation and comfort in their "low-altitude" mountain tourism [5]. The feeling of comfort and relaxation usually result from parasympathetic enhancement which is often associated with better physiological fitness [6] and better prognosis in disease [7].…”

“…Parasympathetic activities are related to relaxation 10) ; therefore, the present study used polysomnography (PSG) recordings to examine whether sleep-related cardiac parasympathetic activity is significantly lower during rotating-shift nurses' days off than their other shifts. In terms of cardiac autonomic effects, this result was to help evaluate whether two consecutive days off after working a rotating shift are sufficient to recover for rotating three-shift nurses.…”

This study was to evaluate whether sleep-related autonomic function in nurses recovers during their days off following a rapidly rotating, clockwise shift schedule. Ten rotating-shift nurses and ten regular morning-shift nurses were included. Nurses slept at home and were allowed to sleep and wake spontaneously. For the rotating-shift workers, ambulatory polysomnographic recordings were taken during nighttime sleep (after the second morning shift, afternoon shift, and on days off) and during daytime sleep (after the second night shift). No significant differences were found between regular-shift nurses and rotating-shift nurses in terms of sleep patterns and cardiac autonomic functions during day shift. When comparing sleep patterns within shift groups, the total sleep time of night shift was lower than their other shifts. Controlling for the variable of total sleep time allowed us to compare cardiac autonomic functions following different shifts (for the rotating shift nurses). During the non-rapid eye movement and rapid eye movement periods, the high frequency (HF) value on rotating shift nurses' days off was found to be significantly higher than their other shifts. However, the low to high frequency ratio (LF/HF) on days off was found to be obviously lower than that during shift work. Two consecutive days off may be sufficient for nurses to recover sleep-related autonomic functions after a rapidly rotating, clockwise three-shift schedule. Sleeprelated autonomic functions may be improved during days off to minimize health risks.

“…Há evidências de resultados positivos em relação ao uso de intervenções musicoterapêu-ticas na redução de ansiedade em pacientes terminais (Horne-Thompson, & Grocke, 2008) e na redução do nível de estresse de mulheres profissionais de saúde (Taets, Borba-Pinheiro, Figueiredo, & Dantas, 2013). Evidências preliminares também sugerem que a Musicoterapia pode ser clinicamente útil para promover a sensação de relaxamento e aumento da atividade do sistema nervoso parassimpático em pessoas que sobreviveram ao câncer (Chuang, Han, Li, & Young, 2010) e na promoção de relaxamento em pacientes transplantados (Madson, & Silverman, 2010). Intervenções utilizando música também têm contribuído para promoção de relaxamento e redução de ansiedade em pacientes com queimaduras (Najafi Ghezeljeh, Mohades Ardebili, Rafii, & Haghan, 2016;Tan, Yowler, Super, & Fratianne, 2010) e em idosos, com efeitos positivos sobre a depressão e a ansiedade (Klainin-Yobas, Oo, Suzanne Yew, & Lau, 2015).…”

Resumo: O presente estudo teve por objetivo avaliar as características das músicas compostas por dois diferentes compositores para a fase preparatória da Abordagem Direta do Inconsciente/Terapia de Integração Pessoa (ADI/TIP) e seus efeitos psicológicos, buscando verificar se elas contribuem para a indução de relaxamento. Para tanto, foi realizada inicialmente a análise teórica das músicas com o intuito de verificar se apresentavam características estruturais consideradas relaxantes, evidenciadas pelos estudos experimentais revisados. Posteriormente, as músicas foram avaliadas considerando os efeitos subjetivos eliciados pela sua audição. Participaram do estudo 72 voluntários, divididos em quatro condições: 1) Compositor A; 2) Compositor B; 3) Coletânea (músicas utilizadas em estudos prévios para promover o relaxamento); e 4) Sem audição musical. Os participantes responderam a um protocolo de avaliação da percepção subjetiva de sentimentos e emoções antes e depois de serem expostos à condição experimental. Os dados do protocolo foram comparados com os dados obtidos na análise teórica das músicas. Apesar de as músicas do compositor A apresentarem mais características estruturais relaxantes do que as do compositor B, todas as músicas analisadas foram consideradas como relaxantes e tiveram efeito para redução da pontuação da categoria de "Raiva/Medo" do protocolo utilizado. Isso indica que as músicas utilizadas na fase preparatória do método ADI/TIP possuem características relaxantes e contribuem para diminuição de sensações correspondentes a uma valência negativa e excitabilidade alta, favorecendo à promoção do estado de relaxamento necessário à eficácia deste método terapêutico. Palavras-chave: Música, Relaxamento, Efeitos psicológicos, ADI / TIP.
