Effect of nature-based sound therapy on agitation and anxiety in coronary artery bypass graft patients during the weaning of mechanical ventilation: A randomised clinical trial

“…Nature sounds have also been found to decrease pulse rate, muscle tension, and stress in healthy volunteers (Largo‐Wight et al , ). Studies have found evidence to indicate that nature sounds reduce anxiety in patients undergoing sigmoidoscopy or mechanical ventilation and those being weaned from mechanical ventilation (Lembo et al , ; Saadatmand et al , ; Aghaie et al , ).…”

This study was conducted to determine and compare the effectiveness of nature sounds and relaxation exercises for reducing preoperative anxiety. A repeated measures randomized controlled trial design was used. We divided 159 preoperative patients into three groups: nature sounds (n = 53), relaxation exercises (n = 53), and control groups (n = 53). We evaluated anxiety using the visual analog scale and state anxiety inventory scores immediately before, immediately after, and 30 min after interventions in nature sounds and relaxation exercises groups, and silent rest in the control. We found no differences between the measurement values in the intervention groups, but we did observe a difference between the intervention and control groups. The two interventions were similarly effective in reducing preoperative anxiety. These simple and low-cost interventions can be used to reduce preoperative anxiety in surgical clinics.

Background: The use of nonpharmacological methods has been emphasized in the recent years. These methods are used to decrease the duration of weaning from mechanical ventilation after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery. Objectives: The present study aimed at determining the effect of family-centered care on the duration of weaning from mechanical ventilation in patients undergoing CABG. Methods: This clinical trial study was conducted in Jamaran Heart Subspecialty hospital in Tehran in 2016. Initially, convenient sampling method and random allocation were used by quaternary blocks to allocate patients into 2 groups of experimental and control, with 35 participants in each group. In the intervention group, the patients' family member chosen by the patient was entered into the ward during the weaning process. Patient's entrance time to the ward to extubation time was considered as the duration of weaning from mechanical ventilation in the 2 groups. Results: Duration of weaning in the experimental group was 97 minutes less than the control group; in other words, the weaning duration of those in the control group was 1.4 times greater than those in the experimental group. This difference was statistically significant between the 2 groups (P = 0.05). Conclusions: Family-centered care reduced the duration of weaning from mechanical ventilator in patients undergoing coronary artery surgery, which can remarkably decrease complications due to ventilation with positive pressure in these patients.
