About this study

Official title: Effects of Music on Acute Postoperative Pain Intensity and Mobility After Fragility Hip Fracture: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Music has been proven to be beneficial in postoperative care by reducing pain. The effects of music listening to reduce pain postoperatively are well studied among cases undergoing elective orthopaedic surgery. No study has been conducted focusing on pain control among cases with fragility hip fractures in an acute ward setting with non-schedule non-elective orthopaedic operation.

In Queen Elizabeth Hospital a standardized analgesic protocol is used for all fragility hip fracture cases unless contraindicated, a suboptimal post-operative pain control is not uncommonly seen. Stepping up analgesics is usually a concern in the elderly with a higher rate of side effects, a safe and simple non-pharmacological intervention for pain control is therefore needed.

The aim of this study is to study the effectiveness of incorporating music on pain intensity and mobility with the standard postoperative rehabilitation care of fragility hip fracture in Queen Elizabeth Hospital.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Pain intensity measured by 11-point pain intensity numerical rating scale after music listening in postoperative Day 1 - 2 among subjects with fragility hip fracture

    Measured: postoperative day 1 and 2

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Modified functional ambulatory classification (MFAC) in postoperative Day 3 among subjects with fragility hip fracture

    Measured: postoperative day 3

  2. New mobility score (NMS) in postoperative Day 3 among subjects with fragility hip fracture

    Measured: postoperative day 3

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing music listening in people with Hip Fractures, run by Hospital Authority, Hong Kong at 1 site in Hong Kong.

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 8 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Feb 2024. 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 Hong Kong. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Kwan Yiu Jeffrey Lau (62017014, lky194a@ha.org.hk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Pain intensity measured by 11-point pain intensity numerical rating scale after music listening in postoperative Day 1 - 2 among subjects with fragility hip fracture (time frame: postoperative day 1 and 2). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 26 Feb 2024.
