Impact of Music Therapy on Intraoperative Patient Comfort During Cataract Surgery With Topic Anesthesia

March 24, 2021 updated by: Benjamin Javillier, University of Liege

Cataract surgery with topic anesthesia is anxiety provoking. This operative stress can increase pain perception and blood pressure. This discomfort can lead to non-compliance with immobility and potentially lead to intraoperative and postoperative complications.

Pharmacological means are limited to reduce anxiety. Only anxiolytics could be effective but at the cost of side effects not compatible with surgery.

Music Care is a "digital treatment" allowing the diffusion of music with a U-shaped sequence using the principles of hypnoanalgesia.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the MusicCare listening device on the anxiety of patients during cataract surgery with topic anesthesia

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Supportive Care
  • Allocation: Randomized
  • Interventional Model: Parallel Assignment
  • Masking: Single

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: MusicCare® device
The device is a touch tablet with a headset that allows noise reduction. The patient can choose the music they prefer. The selected U-shaped sequence uses the principles of hypnoanalgesia to accompany the patient into a state of deep relaxation.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Self-assessed anxiety score between the 2 groups
Time Frame: Baseline day, when entering the operating room
Self-assessed anxiety score on a visual analogue scale (VAS) from 0 to 10 (0 means no anxiety and 10 the maximum anxiety)
Baseline day, when entering the operating room

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Self-assessment of the duration of the surgery
Time Frame: Baseline day, when entering the operating room
Self-rated duration of surgery on a scale of 0 to 5 (0 means 5 to 10 minutes and 5 means 25 to 30 minutes)
Baseline day, when entering the operating room
