Non-pharmacological interventions such as music are being increasingly used in clinical settings. Objective To assess the effects of music on patients undergoing total knee replacement (TKR) surgery under subarachnoid anesthesia. Methods This randomized controlled trial examined participants (45/group) in a music and non-music group. Anxiety was measured in both the groups using (1) the adapted hospital anxiety and depression scale (HADS), (2) Spielberger state trait anxiety inventory (STAI-S), (3) visual analog scale (VAS), (4) cortisol levels, and (5) blood pressure. Music was delivered using an MP3 player and headphones. Hemodynamic data was collected before, during, and after music therapy. Cortisol and stress levels were measured postoperatively. VAS was assessed 30 min before surgery, 30 min after the administration of anesthesia, and 30 min after the surgery ended in the recovery room to obtain comparative data on pain levels at 3 different phases using a numeric rating scale. Results Changes in the mean VAS scores from the pre-to postoperative phase were significantly different between the music and non-music groups (p = .001). The mean (+/- standard deviation SD]) HADS and STAI-S scores of the non-music group were higher than those in the music group (HADS:15.58 +/- 2.231 vs 11.91 +/- 3.218; STAI-S: 54.04 +/- 2.899 vs 48.87 +/- 4.595). There were significant differences in the mean systolic and diastolic blood pressure and mean heart rate between the groups based on time (both, p < .001). Correlation regression analysis for the cortisol level revealed a certain relationship between age and cortisol level (p < .05). Conclusions These results suggest that music can reduce patients' anxiety level in the operating room. Studies on music therapy for patients undergoing lower limb orthopedic surgery, especially under subarachnoid anesthesia, are extremely limited. Therefore, this study can serve as a reference regarding the application of music therapy in the medical field.
