“…Our results are consistent with the previous studies related to the effects of music intervention on lower anxiety in participants during labor (Chuang et al, 2018). Nevertheless, the analysis of anxiety level by Chuang et al (2018) only involved one study that evaluated the anxiety level using VAS-A and one study that used the Zung SAS on primiparous women expected to undergo NSD. In our analysis, we pooled six studies that evaluated the anxiety level with VAS-A, two studies with SAS, two studies with STAI, and included pregnant women prepared to deliver via either NSD or CS.…”

“…We used strict inclusion criteria (only RCTs in the meta-analysis) and recent studies rather than the old ones. Chuang et al (2018) did not execute subgroup analysis as per the method of delivery. In the current study, music intervention successfully lowered the anxiety score in women who delivered via NSD as well as those who underwent CS (Fig.…”

Background Anxiety is commonly experienced during the delivery process and has shown to have adverse effects on maternal and infant health outcomes. Music interventions tend to reduce the effects of anxiety in diverse populations, are low cost, are easily accessible, and have high acceptability. The aim of this review and meta-analysis was to assess the effectiveness of music interventions in reducing anxiety levels among women during labor. Methods Seven databases from inception to the end of December, 2018, without any language or time restriction including Embase, PubMed, the Cochrane Library, the Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health, PsycINFO, Airiti Library, and PerioPath: Index to Taiwan Periodical Literature were searched using key terms related to pregnancy, anxiety, and music. Randomized controlled trials that assessed the effect of music during labor and measured anxiety levels as an outcome were included. Meta-analyses were conducted to assess anxiety reduction following a music intervention compared to that after placebo treatment. Results A total of 14 studies that investigated a total of 1,310 participants were included in this review. The meta-analyses indicated that those in the intervention group had a significant decrease in anxiety scores (standardized mean difference = −2.40, 95% confidence interval (CI) [−3.29 to −1.52], p < 0.001; I2 = 97.66%), heart rate (HR) (difference in means = −3.04 beats/min, 95% CI [−4.79 to −1.29] beats/min, p = 0.001; I2 = 0.00%), systolic blood pressure (SBP) (difference in means = −3.71 mmHg, 95% CI [−7.07 to −0.35] mmHg, p = 0.031; I2 = 58.47%), and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) (difference in means = −3.54 mmHg, 95% CI [−5.27 to −1.81] mmHg, p < 0.001; I2 = 0.00%) as compared to the women in the control group. Conclusions Music interventions may decrease anxiety scores and physiological indexes related to anxiety (HR, SBP, and DBP). Music interventions may be a good non-pharmacological approach for decreasing anxiety levels during labor.

Background: Acute severe migraine requiring Emergency Room (ER) visit is managed by giving analgesics for pain relief. Since music medicine has been beneficial in other pain syndromes, the study of its effect as a noninvasive add-on to current management is worth pursuing. Objective: To identify if music medicine in addition to medical therapy will reduce the severity and duration of an acute attack of moderate to severe migraine compared to medical management alone. Methods: An open label randomized controlled trial was conducted at the ER of a tertiary hospital in the Philippines from July 2017 to June 2018. Patients who presented at the ER with acute moderate to severe headache fulfilling the ICH-3 criteria for migraine were included. They were randomized to medical therapy or to medical therapy with music medicine. A decrease in the severity of the headache after one hour of medical treatment was the primary outcome. Results: One hundred eighty-three adult migraneurs were included without difference between group in age, gender, and occupation. There was a statistically significant reduction (p=0.037) in pain severity after one hour in 82 of 87 patients given medical treatment with music medicine (94%) compared to 73 of 86 in the medical therapy alone (85%). There were more headache-free patients at one hour in the music group (55% versus 42%, p=0.05). Conclusion: There is decreased duration and severity of pain when music medicine is added to conventional medical therapy in treating patients with an acute migraine. This is the first randomized trial done in the acute ER setting.
