“…The response depended on the resting activity of the sympathetic ANS, with excessive activity causing a diminished response to the stimulus. Cheng et al [5] were noted a decrease in the HF component of HRV in response to exposure to loud metal music. Similar changes were observed in our study.…”

“…In previous studies of acoustic stimuli (music, noise), such stimuli caused responses in autonomic nervous system and cardiovascular system activity, e.g. increased heart rate (HR), diastolic blood pressure (dBP), low frequency (LF), and decreased high frequency (HF) parameters of heart rate variability (HRV) [2][3][4][5][6].…”

“…This mechanism allows for the maintenance of homeostasis and ensures the appropriate functioning of the cardiovascular system. Measuring the frequency domain analysis of HRV and blood pressure variability (BPV) allows us to capture short and rapid changes in balance between sympathetic and parasympathetic part of ANS [5,[7][8][9][10].…”

B a c k g r o u n d: Stress is a major risk factor for cardiovascular (CV) disease. We hypothesized that past strong experiences might modulate acute CV autonomic responses to an unexpected acoustic stimulus.A i m: The study's aim was to compare acute CV autonomic responses to acoustic stress between students with and without a past strong experience associated with the acoustic stimulus. M a t e r i a l s a n d M e t h o d s: Twenty five healthy young volunteers -medical and non-medical students -were included in the study. CV hemodynamic parameters, heart rate (HR), and blood pressure (BP) variability were assessed for 10 min at rest and for 10 min after two different acoustic stimuli: a standard sound signal and a specific sound signal used during a practical anatomy exam (so-called "pins"). R e s u l t s: Both sounds stimulated the autonomic nervous system. The "pins" signal caused a stronger increase in HR in medical students (69 ± 10 vs. 73 ± 13 bpm, p = 0.004) when compared to non-medical students (69 ± 6 vs. 70 ± 10, p = 0.695). Rises in diastolic BP, observed 15 seconds after sound stressors, were more pronounced after the "pins" sound than after the standard sound signal only in medical students (3.1% and 1.4% vs. 3% and 4.4%), which was also reflected by low-frequency diastolic BP variability (medical students: 6.2 ± 1.6 vs. 4.1 ± 0.8 ms 2 , p = 0.04; non-medical students: 6.0 ± 4.3 vs. 4.1 ± 2.6 ms 2 , p = 0.06). C o n c l u s i o n s: The "pins" sound, which medical students remembered from their anatomy practical exam, provoked greater sympathetic activity in the medical student group than in their non-medical peers. Thus, past strong experiences modulate CV autonomic responses to acute acoustic stress.

“…The literature shows that MM affects HRV in predictable ways. It is not surprising that several studies have established that music affects HRV both in healthy individuals (169)(170)(171)(204)(205)(206)(207)(208)(209)(210) and patients (211)(212)(213)(214)(215)(216)(217)(218)(219)(220)(221)(222)(223)(224). It is also not surprising that the relationship between music and HRV is a complex one; for example, exciting music has the effect of decreasing HF HRV power, which is associated with PNS activation (49) as compared to tranquilizing music (225).…”

Review of Perioperative Music Medicine: Mechanisms of Pain and Stress Reduction Around Surgery

et al. 2022

Clinical-experimental considerations and an approach to understanding the autonomic basis of improved surgical outcomes using Perioperative Music Medicine (PMM) are reviewed. Combined surgical, psycho-physiological, and experimental perspectives on Music Medicine (MM) and its relationship to autonomic nervous system (ANS) function are discussed. Considerations are given to the inter-related perioperative effects of MM on ANS, pain, and underlying vagal and other neural circuits involved in emotional regulation and dysregulation. Many surgical procedures are associated with significant pain, which is routinely treated with post-operative opioid medications, which cause detrimental side effects and delay recovery. Surgical trauma shifts the sympathetic ANS to a sustained activation impairing physiological homeostasis and causing psychological stress, as well as metabolic and immune dysfunction that contribute to postoperative mortality and morbidity. In this article, we propose a plan to operationalize the study of mechanisms mediating the effects of MM in perioperative settings of orthopedic surgery. These studies will be critical for the implementation of PMM as a routine clinical practice and to determine the potential limitations of MM in specific cohorts of patients and how to improve the treatment.

“…33 Soothing music enhances parasympathetic activities that results in a reduction in the respiration rate and heart rate, while exciting music stimulates the sympathetic nervous system with an increase in the heart rate and respiration rate. 34 A review of literature revealed that music therapy is effective for patients with painful muscle cramps induced by hemodialysis 35 , cancer pain 36 , breast biopsy pain 37 , musculoskeletal pain 38 and postoperative pain following open heart surgery. 39 To the best of our knowledge, no published study has explored the effect of self-selected soothing music on pain following needle insertion into a fistula in hemodialysis patients.…”
