The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of relaxing music on pain intensity in patients with neuropathic pain. A quasi-experimental study, repeated measures design was used. Thirty patients, aged 18-70 years, with neuropathic pain and hospitalized in an Algology clinic were identified as a convenience sample. Participants received 60 minutes of music therapy. Classical Turkish music was played to patients using a media player (MP3) and headphones. Participants had pain scores taken immediately before the intervention and at the 30th and 60th minutes of the intervention. Data were collected over a 6-month period in 2012. The patients' mean pain intensity scores were reduced by music, and that decrease was progressive over the 30th and 60th minutes of the intervention, indicating a cumulative dose effect. The results of this study implied that the inclusion of music therapy in the routine care of patients with neuropathic pain could provide nurses with an effective practice for reducing patients' pain intensity.
本研究的目的是调查舒缓音乐对神经性疼痛患者疼痛强度的影响。采用了一项准实验研究，重复测量设计。30名年龄在18至70岁之间、患有神经性疼痛且在疼痛科住院的患者被确定为便利样本。参与者接受了60分钟的音乐疗法。使用媒体播放器（MP3）和耳机向患者播放经典土耳其音乐。在干预前、干预第30分钟和第60分钟时对参与者进行疼痛评分。数据于2012年的6个月期间收集。音乐使患者的平均疼痛强度评分降低，且在干预的第30分钟和第60分钟时这种降低呈渐进性，表明存在累积剂量效应。本研究结果表明，将音乐疗法纳入神经性疼痛患者的常规护理中可为护士提供一种减轻患者疼痛强度的有效方法。
