Hospitalized COVID-19 patients are vulnerable to different degrees of stress disorders as well as depression, anxiety and fear. The aim of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of introducing Music therapy on site with Covid-19 patients and investigating the immediate effects a single session has on anxiety, heart rate (HR), oxygen saturation (O2Sat) and satisfaction compared to standard care. A randomized controlled trial of 40 patients was conducted. Participants were assigned to control group (CG) or the treatment group (MG). MG received an individual single session of music therapy in presence. CG received standard care. MG and CG were subjected to identical measurements (pre-during-post) of the parameters STAI-Y, HR and O2Sat. Participants in MG were asked to fill in an optional open-ended question concerning their experience with music therapy. Significant difference in anxiety levels between scores in MG and CG (34.50 (23.25-40.00) vs 45.00(38, 25-54.00); p = 0.000) was observed. MG compared to CG had statistically significantly higher values of O2Sat (97.50 (96.25-99.00) versus 96.00 (96.00-98.00); p = 0.026). Results show the feasibility of introducing music therapy as a supporting complementary/non-pharmacological intervention on site in Covid-19 patients. A single session of music therapy improves O2Sat and can significantly reduce anxiety.Trial registration: 14/10/2021 No. NCT05077306. https://www.clinicaltrials.cov .
住院的 COVID-19 患者易受到不同程度的压力障碍以及抑郁、焦虑和恐惧的影响。本研究旨在评估在 COVID-19 患者中现场引入音乐疗法的可行性，并调查单次治疗对焦虑、心率 (HR)、血氧饱和度 (O2Sat) 和满意度的即时影响，与标准护理相比。对 40 名患者进行了随机对照试验。参与者被分配到对照组 (CG) 或治疗组 (MG)。MG 接受现场的单次个体音乐治疗，CG 接受标准护理。MG 和 CG 接受相同的参数 (预、中、后) 的 STAI-Y、HR 和 O2Sat 测量。MG 组的参与者被要求填写一份关于他们对音乐治疗体验的可选开放式问题。MG 和 CG 之间的焦虑水平评分存在显著差异 (34.50(23.25-40.00) 与 45.00(38,25-54.00);p=0.000)。与 CG 相比，MG 的 O2Sat 具有统计学意义的更高值 (97.50(96.25-99.00) 与 96.00(96.00-98.00);p=0.026)。结果表明，在 COVID-19 患者中引入音乐疗法作为一种支持性的补充/非药物干预是可行的。单次音乐治疗可提高 O2Sat，并可显著降低焦虑。试验注册：2021 年 10 月 14 日。编号 NCT05077306。https://www.clinicaltrials.gov 。
