The Role of Traditional Music Therapy on Burnout Syndrome Among Healthcare Workers: Psycho-Neuro-Immuno-Endocrine Aspects

March 7, 2024 updated by: Yanuar Ardani, Indonesia University

The goal of this clinical trial study is to learn about the role of traditional music therapy on burnout syndrome among healthcare workers, based on psychology, neurology, immunology, and endocrinology aspects. The main questions it aims to answer are :

  1. How traditional music therapy can improve psychological aspects (emotional exhaustion, depersonalisation, and personal accomplishment) among healthcare workers with burnout syndrome?
  2. How traditional music therapy can improve neuroautonom aspects (heart rate variability) among healthcare workers with burnout syndrome?
  3. How traditional music therapy can improve immunology aspects (IgA and T cell regulator) among healthcare workers with burnout syndrome?
  4. How traditional music therapy can improve endocrinology aspects (cortisol and endorphine) among healthcare workers with burnout syndrome?

Detailed Description

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the role of traditional music therapy on burnout syndrome among healthcare workers. The investigators will collected about 80 participants, which eventually get divided into intervention (40 participants) and control (40 participants) group. Participants will get examined using Maslach Burnout Inventory-Human Service Survey for rating their burnout sydnrome. Before starting the intervention, both group will get assessed for their heart rate variability, IgA and T cell regulator level, and cortisol and endorphine level. After that, Intervention group will get traditional music therapy and educational video 3 session a week for about 4 weeks. And control group will only get educational video.

Both group will be assessed for their heart rate variability and their laboratory markers three times, 2 weeks after starting the intervention, right after finishing all intervention session on week 4, and 2 weeks after the intervention is done. Investigators will compare the results between control group (educational video only without any music therapy) and intervention group (traditional music therapy and educational video) to see if there are any role of traditional music therapy on burnout syndrome based on psychology-neuroautonom-immunology-endocrinology aspects.

Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Interventional Group
Participants who will be given both educational video and traditional music therapy 3 times a week for 4 weeks in a row. This group will get Maslach Burnout Inventory, Heart Rate Variability, IgA, T cell regulator, cortisol, and endorphine score evaluated before, in the middle, right after finishing intervention, and 2 weeks after intervention.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Heart Rate Variability
Time Frame: one month
Heart rate variability (HRV) is the fluctuation in the time intervals between adjacent heartbeats. HRV indexes neurocardiac function and is generated by heart-brain interactions and dynamic non-linear autonomic nervous system (ANS) processes.
one month
Immunoglobulin A level
Time Frame: one month
Evaluate Immunoglobulin A level using saliva
one month
T cell regulator
Time Frame: one month
Evaluate T cell regulator level using blood
one month
Cortisol
Time Frame: one month
Evaluate cortisol level on saliva
one month
Endorphine
Time Frame: one month
Evaluate endorphine level on saliva
one month
Maslach Burnout Inventory Human Services Survey
Time Frame: one month

an instrument developed to capture burnout for health professionals The Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) is a measuring tool that is generally used to assess whether you are at risk of burnout. To explain the risk of burnout, the MBI assesses three components, namely fatigue, depersonalization and self-achievement. Each statement shows a score that explains your response. Put a check mark (√) on each number that you think represents your opinion about the statement listed in the column below.

0 : never

  1. : Several times a year
  2. : Less than or once a month
  3. : Several times a month
  4. : Once a week 5: Several times a week

6 : Every day A participant can be categorized as burnout if he has an exhaustion score ≥ 24, a cynicism score ≥ 9, and a (reversed) accomplishment score ≥ 19.
