Mechanisms Within the Autonomic Nervous SysTEm undeRlying MusIc Therapy's aNalgesic Effects in Sickle Cell Disease (MASTERMIND)
Sickle cell disease causes very painful episodes that can happen without warning. Pain is one of the biggest problems for people with SCD. Medicines like opioids can help, but they have serious side effects. Doctors are looking for other ways to treat pain.
Investigators have already found that music therapy - breathing exercises guided by a trained music therapist - can lower pain in adults with SCD. But investigators don't know exactly how it works yet inside the body.
This study will look at two possible reasons why music therapy helps:
- It may calm the body's "fight-or-flight" (sympathetic) nervous system, which can make pain worse when it is too active.
- It may boost the "calming" (parasympathetic) nervous system, which may ease pain and reduce inflammation.
- It may lower swelling and inflammation in the body, which also drives pain.

Experimental: Music Therapy
The MT-BC will engage the participant in a 20-minute deep breathing exercise with live music beating at a defined tempo. Participants will repeat this session on their own. |
Participants will undergo a 20-minute music therapy session with a board certified music therapist, then will repeat this on their own once daily for 2 weeks. |

Medidas de resultado primarias
Medidas de resultado primarias
Medida de resultado |
Medida Descripción |
Periodo de tiempo |
|---|---|---|
|
Change in electrodermal activity (EDA) as measured by change in electrical potential at the surface of the skin
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline and after 2 weeks
|
Lower EDA reflects less sympathetic tone |
Baseline and after 2 weeks
|
|
Change in Quantitative Sudomotor Axon Reflex Test (QSART) as measured by sweat output values
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline and after 2 weeks
|
Lower QSART values reflect less sympathetic activity |
Baseline and after 2 weeks
|
|
Changes in Pupillometry parameters as measured by constriction velocity
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline and after 2 weeks
|
Faster constriction velocity indicates a higher pupillary vagal tone. |
Baseline and after 2 weeks
|
|
Changes in Pupillometry parameters as measured by percent reflex amplitude
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline and after 2 weeks
|
Larger percentage of reflex amplitude indicates higher pupillary vagal tone. |
Baseline and after 2 weeks
|
|
Changes in Pupillometry parameters as measured by dilation velocity.
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline and after 2 weeks.
|
Slower dilation velocity indicates lower pupillary sympathetic tone. |
Baseline and after 2 weeks.
|
|
Change in Heart Rate Response to deep breathing
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline and after 2 weeks
|
Increased heart rate response to deep breathing denotes increased cardiovagal tone. |
Baseline and after 2 weeks
|
|
Measurement of average supine resting Blood Pressure (BP)
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline and after 2 weeks
|
Lower average resting BP denote lower cardiac sympathetic tone |
Baseline and after 2 weeks
|
|
Measurement of average supine resting Heart Rate (HR)
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline and after 2 weeks
|
Lower average resting HR denote lower cardiac sympathetic tone |
Baseline and after 2 weeks
|
|
Change in supine resting respiratory rate
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline and after 2 weeks
|
A lower resting respiratory rate reflects a shift of autonomic balance toward parasympathetic (vagal) dominance with reduced central sympathetic outflow. |
Baseline and after 2 weeks
|
|
Change in the maximum heart rate during the Valsalva maneuver
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline and after 2 weeks
|
An increased Valsalva Ratio (maximum heart rate to the minimum heart rate) reflects an increase in cardiac parasympathetic tone. |
Baseline and after 2 weeks
|
|
Change in the minimum heart rate shortly after the Valsalva maneuver
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline and after 2 weeks
|
An increased Valsalva Ratio (maximum heart rate to the minimum heart rate) reflects an increase in cardiac parasympathetic tone. |
Baseline and after 2 weeks
|

|
Pain intensity changes as measured by the Visual Analog Scale (VAS)
Periodo de tiempo: Baseline and after 2 weeks of daily music therapy
|
The VAS is a straight 100 mm line-usually horizontal-with descriptive word anchors at each end representing opposite extremes of a subjective experience, such as 0 being "no pain" and 10 being "worst possible pain". |

|
|
