Summary

This study aims to investigate the effect of music therapy on dyspnea severity and quality of life indicators in patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) admitted to the intensive care unit. The study will be conducted at Isparta City Hospital and Kumluca State Hospital in Antalya, Turkey, using an experimental design. Patients will be divided into experimental and control groups, selected using randomization. Patients in the experimental group will receive music therapy in the Hüseyni maqam, while those in the control group will not receive any music therapy. Life indicators and Modified Borg Scale (MBS) values of patients in the experimental group will be recorded before, immediately after, and 30 minutes post-application. Music therapy will be administered to patients for only one day, once in the morning. Data for patients in the control group will be collected at the same time intervals. The results of this study aim to contribute to the literature on the impact of music therapy on dyspnea severity and quality of life indicators in COPD patients.
