Summary

This study aims to explore the effects of preoperative education combined with intraoperative music therapy on perioperative anxiety and pain in patients undergoing elective cesarean section. The study subjects were patients scheduled for cesarean section under combined spinal - epidural anesthesia. A prospective study design with random grouping was adopted. Through systematic preoperative education and intraoperative music intervention, multi - dimensional evaluations were carried out to analyze the effects of preoperative education combined with intraoperative music therapy on the relief of perioperative anxiety, pain and shivering in patients, as well as its impact on postoperative recovery and nursing satisfaction.

Interventions

OTHEReoperative Education + Intraoperative Music Therapy Arm

The experimental group implemented standardized preoperative education one day before the operation (covering knowledge such as the surgical procedure), headphone fitting one hour before the operation (with a volume of 45-55 decibels), and music therapy throughout the operation and for 30 minutes after the operation (parturients can choose personalized music). Full-time nurses were responsible for the preoperative education, and trained operating room nurses implemented the music therapy. Meanwhile, data such as anxiety scores, pain scores, shivering index, postoperative complications, postoperative recovery status, and satisfaction surveys were collected at multiple time points through standardized tools.

OTHERPreoperative Education Alone Arm

The control group received the same standardized preoperative education by full-time nurses one day before the operation, covering surgical procedures, precautions, anesthesia, and postoperative recovery. Data were collected at multiple time points using standardized tools, including anxiety scores (before and 6, 12, 24 h after surgery via GAD-7), pain scores (before and 6, 12, 24 h after via VAS), shivering index (before surgery, before wearing headphones, when leaving OR), postoperative complications (wound infection, urinary retention, etc.), postoperative recovery indicators (time to get out of bed, anal exhaust, breastfeeding start, hospital stay), and satisfaction surveys (24 h after surgery). Importantly, the control group had no music therapy intervention before, during, or after surgery.
