“…Music interventions in people with cancer can have positive effects on anxiety, pain, mood, and quality of life, but have little impact on heart rate, respiratory rate, and blood pressure [ 27 ]. Music therapy, in pediatric oncology, seems to have a good feasibility and positive effects on mental and physical health [ 6 ]. There are also positive effects of music therapy with female patients with breast cancer.…”

“…More than half of the respondents in a study reported serving in high acuity areas such as the pediatric intensive care, hematology/oncology, or neonatal intensive care units [ 5 ]. Music therapy has become a consolidated strategy to relieve stress in children during hospitalization, and previous research demonstrated its efficacy on individuals’ health [ 6 ]. Improvisational musical activity with therapeutic objectives and outcomes has been found to facilitate motivation, communication skills and social interaction, as well as sustaining and developing attention [ 7 ].…”

Background: Recent research found evidence supporting music therapy for hospitalized children with chronic diseases. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of music therapy on hospitalized children’s vital signs. Methods: In this prospective study, children with chronic gastroenterological and nephrological diseases received active or receptive music therapy two to four times a week until discharge from hospital at the pediatric special care unit (SCU) and pediatric intensive care unit (ICU). Baseline and post-therapy heart rate, oxygen saturation and blood pressure were recorded and analyzed as control values at three points on the same day when the children were alone in their patient room at rest. Results: A total of 83 children, median 3 age of years (range one month to eighteen years) received music therapy. In total, 377 music therapy sessions were treated: 200 receptive therapy (78 ICU, 122 SCU) and 177 with active therapy (0 ICU, 177 SCU). Music therapy interventions showed changes in vital signs during music therapy sessions. After music therapy, heart rates decreased by 18 beats per minute (95% confidence interval (CI), −19.4 to (−16.8)), oxygen saturation increased by 2.3% (95% CI, 2.2 to 2.5), systolic blood pressure decreased by 9.2 (95% CI, −10.6 to −7.7) and diastolic blood pressure decreased by 7.9 (95% CI, −9.6 to −6.3). When music therapy was applied at the SCU (ICU), heart rates significantly reduced by 17.9 (18.9) beats per min, oxygen saturation increased by 2.4% (2.1%) and blood pressure reduced by 9.2 (2.8) mmHg (systolic) and 7.9 (0.3) mmHg (diastolic). Almost all control values were better than directly before the intervention. However, after music therapy intervention, the children showed better values in vital signs compared to being alone in their patient room. Conclusion: Music therapy is an added value for children with kidney and liver/gastrointestinal diseases during their hospital stay.

“…Furthermore, applying engaging non -pharmacological distraction strategies, such as animated cartoons [38], virtual reality [39,40], music therapy [16], or the Buzzy device [41], seems like promising interventions that can be easily applied by nurses in a busy clinical setting to reduce children distress.…”

Background: Venous access port is commonly used during cancer treatment in children, yet little is known about how children experience such needle insertion procedures. Aim:To study distress before and pain after venous access port needle insertion among children and adolescents with cancer. A second aim was to explore associations between their self-report of procedure-related distress and pain with proxy reports by parents and nurses. Method:The sample included 43 children/adolescents, aged 1-16 years with cancer, treated at two Norwegian university hospitals. The patient, parent(s), and the nurse performing the procedure completed developmentally appropriate 11-point distress and pain scales before and immediately after the venous access port procedure. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics and non-parametric correlations. Ethical issues:The ethical code of conduct was followed and conformed to the ethical guidelines adopted by the Regional Committee for Medicine and Health Research and the data protector officer at the hospitals.Results: For the youngest children (1-5 years), the median distress proxy score was 8 (range 0-9) and pain proxy score 4 (range 0-10). Median distress and pain scores for children aged 6-12 years were 3 (range 0-9) and 1 (range 0-10), respectively, and for the adolescents (age 13-16) 0 (range 0-6) and 1 (range 0-5), respectively.Patients' self-reported distress and pain correlated highly with parents' (distress: rho = 0.83, p < 0.001, pain: rho = 0.92, p < 0.001) and with nurses' proxy ratings (distress: rho = 0.89, p < 0.001, pain: rho = 0.88, p < 0.001). Conclusion:There were individual age differences in experienced distress/pain associated with venous access port needle insertion, with a trend for younger children to experience higher levels of distress/ pain than the older children. Children's selfreport of distress/ pain concurred with both parental and nurse proxy reports.
