Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Adjunctive Music Therapy in Total Knee Replacement

In brief

The aim of the present study is to determine if the use of music as an intervention can be utilized, in conjunction with normal pharmacological treatment, in decreasing pain and increasing patient satisfaction, in male and female total knee replacement patients, from the age of 50 and 70, during the first 48 postoperative hours after surgery. It is the hope that this study can add to current research addressing the pain relief needs of orthopedic patients following total knee replacement surgery using music listening as an adjuvant therapy.
