“…As a result of GEMS-9, bossa nova, jazz, and classical piano were selected as suitable genres. Our results that bossa nova music is related to relaxation are similar to those of previous studies [24,25]. Using the Geneva Emotional Music Scales results can provide evidence-based results to artificially synthesize music suitable for patients in the hospital setting.…”

Before a patient undergoes surgery, they are likely to complain of anxiety to various degrees. To address this issue, we designed and implemented a composition program using TensorFlow Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) to select music for learning. The nurses’ preferences and needs were assessed using the Geneva Emotional Music Scales-9 (GEMS-9) tool and focus group interview (FGI) methods for currently used sound sources and nurses at the operating room entrance. An FGI and GEMS-9 for preference analysis were conducted by nurses who currently work in the operating room, had experience with managing the operating room’s background music, and wished to participate voluntarily in this study on 31 January 2019 in an operating room simulation center. Interviews were held with a total of three nurse. The data were analyzed using a qualitative thematic analysis. Using GEMS-9 to evaluate 16 sample sources, the average of the sad–happy values was highest at four points, with a lower tension of 1.48. Happy, Joy, and Peaceful were classified as appropriate for background music in the operating room. Additionally, the top six songs were selected as suitable songs by calculating the difference in values among Sad, Tension, Tender, Nostalgia, and Trance, which were judged to be inappropriate along with Power and Wonder. The songs selected were two jazz songs, three bossa nova songs, and two piano classical songs. The results of this study show that music used in the operating room should contain a slow tempo such as slow classical, piano, strings, natural acoustics, and new age music. Music consisting of only musical instruments (preferably containing smaller arrangements of less than five instruments) is preferred over music containing human vocals. Based on the study findings, the conditions of the sound source to be used for learning were suggested after consulting with a music expert.

“…The effects of Dannis Bois’s method of fascia therapy, reflexology and hypnosis, and music therapy were seen in patients dealing with daily life stress and anxiety. Fascia therapy, reflexology, and hypnosis therapy significantly reduced anxiety and stress levels and could be used as a non-pharmacological treatment intervention protocol [ 34 ].…”

Background Neck pain is among the common musculoskeletal problem that hinders a person’s daily activities. Fascial tightness is a familiar cause of chronic neck pain that is often neglected and can further cause neck disability and a limited range of motion. Objective The purpose was to compare the effects of fascia therapy and fascial manipulation on pain, range of motion and function in patients with chronic neck pain. Methods A randomized clinical trial was conducted from February to August 2022 in the Riphah Rehabilitation Centre, Lahore, Pakistan. Fifty-two participants of both genders, aged 18–40 years with chronic neck pain of at least 3–6 months were included. Group A (n = 26) received fascia therapy along with a conventional physical therapy protocol of hot pack, strengthening and stretching, while group B (n = 26) received the fascial manipulation treatment with conventional physical therapy. All the participants were assessed at baseline and after 3 weeks (3 sessions per week). Numeric Pain Rating Scale (NPRS), Neck Disability Index (NDI) and Goniometer (range of motions) were the outcome measures. SPSS 25 was used for the data analysis and normality of the data through the Shaphiro-Wilk test (p > 0.05), and parametric tests were applied. Results The mean age of group A was 24.82 ± 2.64 years, and group B was 24.17 ± 2.20 years. The independent t-test result showed no significant difference (p ≥ 0.05) in all parameters except in cervical extension and right-side bending (p < 0.05). At the same time, the pair-wise comparison showed significant results (p < 0.05) for all outcome measures in both groups. Conclusion DBM fascia therapy improved cervical extension and side bending (right) more than the fascial manipulation group.It is concluded that DBM fascia therapy shows more improvement as compared to other group. Trial registration number This study was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05272111 on 09/03/2022.

“…Since the publication of the aforementioned review, our research group has conducted a multicenter randomized controlled trial offering group hypnosis for stress reduction and improved stress coping, which showed a reduction in perceived stress in the hypnosis group compared to the control group at both 5 and 12 weeks (Fisch et al, 2020a). Other studies have also shown that hypnosis leads to a lower perception of stress (Payrau et al, 2017;Olendzki et al, 2020;Slonena and Elkins, 2021;Vahdat et al, 2022).…”

BackgroundThere is evidence that patients’ positive outcome expectations prior to study interventions are associated with better treatment outcomes. Nevertheless, to date, only few studies have investigated whether individual outcome expectations affect treatment outcomes in hypnosis.ObjectiveTo examine whether outcome expectations to hypnosis prior to starting treatment were able to predict perceived stress, as measured on a visual analog scale (VAS), after 5 weeks.MethodsWe performed a secondary data analysis of a multicenter randomized controlled trial of intervention group participants only. Study participants with stress symptoms were randomized to 5 weekly sessions of a group hypnosis program for stress reduction and improved stress coping, plus 5 hypnosis audio recordings for further individual practice at home, as well as an educational booklet on coping with stress. Perceived stress for the following week was measured at baseline and after 5 weeks using a visual analog scale (0–100 mm; VAS). Hypnosis outcome expectations were assessed at baseline only with the Expectations for Treatment Scale (ETS). Unadjusted and adjusted linear regressions were performed to examine the association between baseline expectations and perceived stress at 5 weeks.ResultsData from 47 participants (M = 45.02, SD = 13.40 years; 85.1% female) were analyzed. Unadjusted (B = 0.326, t = 0.239, p = 0.812, R2 = 0.001) and adjusted (B = 0.639, t = 0.470, p = 0.641, R2 = 0.168) linear regressions found that outcome expectations to hypnosis were not associated with a change in perceived stress between baseline and after 5 weeks in the intervention group.ConclusionOur findings suggest that the beneficial effect of group hypnosis in distressed participants were not associated with outcome expectations. Other mechanisms of action may be more important for the effect of hypnosis, which should be explored in future research.Clinical trial registration: ClinicalTrials.gov, identifier NCT03525093.
