About this study

Official title: The Efficacy of Music Therapy Protocols for Decreasing Pain, Anxiety, and Muscle Tension Levels During Burn Debridement: A Prospective Randomized Crossover Trial

The purpose of this prospective, crossover randomized study is to explore the efficacy of two music therapy protocols on pain, anxiety, and muscle tension levels throughout the debridement process in individuals hospitalized with moderate to severe burns.

Read the detailed description

The study is a prospective, randomized crossover clinical trial conducted on a 14-bed inpatient comprehensive burn care center. The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy of Music-Based Imagery (MBI) and Music Alternate Engagement (MAE) for pain and anxiety management for burn patients throughout the debridement process.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Music-Based Imagery (MBI)Behavioural

    Also called Music & Imagery

    MBI is form of music-assisted relaxation with imagery. This protocol is used at the patients' bedside before and after the debridement process.

  • Music Alternate Engagement (MAE)Behavioural

    Also called Distraction Technique

    MAE consisted of a menu of music therapy interventions aimed at engaging the patients in music and diverting them away from the debridement process.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Music-Based Imagery (MBI) and Music Alternate Engagement (MAE) in people with Pain Management, run by MetroHealth Medical Center at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Jul 2010. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Pain, Anxiety, Muscle Tension levels (time frame: 7 data points before, during, after debridement). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00822497, which also lists 2 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 23 Jul 2010.
