Music Effect on the Self-Injection, Testing Fear and Pain

January 24, 2025 updated by: Hamdiye ARDA SÜRÜCÜ, Dicle University

Examination of Music's Demonstration to Self-Injection, Fear of Testing and Pain in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes

Diabetes is a chronic and broad-spectrum metabolic disorder characterized by hyperglycemia that occurs due to relative or absolute insulin deficiency or "insulin resistance" developed against insulin action in peripheral tissues, affecting many organs and causing multisystem involvement. Metabolic function continues to deteriorate after diagnosis, leading to worsening glycemic control and insulin therapy becoming necessary. However, patients may have difficulty adhering to insulin therapy. Fears about injections are common in both adults and children and, as research shows, are a major reason why people with diabetes avoid taking insulin. Addressing these fears is an important part of helping patients reduce their risk of diabetes-related complications. Helping patients manage their replacement pain may help reduce the effects of needle fear in the future. There are a number of strategies that can ease the pain.The use of music in pain management has advantages such as being reliable, cheap, and having no side effects, as well as reducing postoperative pain reports. Music distracts the individual from negative stimuli and allows them to focus on something they enjoy, thus reducing pain and anxiety. Music therapy has also been shown to have sedative-protective effects and reduce stress hormone levels. Listening to preferred music can distract and reduce the pain and negative emotions associated with an unpleasant experience.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Visual Analogue Scale
Time Frame: Before insulin administration on day, Time Frame: After two insulin administration on the second day
The scale is used to assess subjectively perceived pain. It is a 10 cm (100 mm) ruler with no pain on one end and the "most severe pain" on the other. The individuals participating in the study are asked to mark the intensity of pain they are currently feeling, explaining that the number "0" on the scale means "I feel no pain" and that the intensity of pain increases as the numbers increase, and the number "10" means "I feel the most severe pain". An increase in the score obtained from the scale in the assessment indicates that the pain is increasing. Each patient will be administrated three times.
Before insulin administration on day, Time Frame: After two insulin administration on the second day

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Diabetes Fear of Self Injecting and Self-testing Questionnaire
Time Frame: Before insulin administrated on day one, Time Frame: After two insulin administration on the second day.
Questionnaire measures fear of self-injection and testing in diabetic individuals who require insulin. Questionnaire, which contains 15 statements, consists of two sub-dimensions: fear of self-injecting (6 statements) and fear of self-testing (9 statements). Each statement has a four-point Likert-type scoring ranging from 0 to 3 (0= almost never, 1= sometimes, 2= often, 3= almost always). The evaluation of the questionnaire form can be done by taking the average or raw score for the two sub-dimensions and the entire form. When taken as raw score, self-injection fear score varies between 0-18, self-testing fear score between 0-27, and total fear score between 0-45. Increasing score indicates increasing fear. Each patient will be administrated three times.
Before insulin administrated on day one, Time Frame: After two insulin administration on the second day.
