Abstract
Undergoing interventional radiology (IR) procedures with procedural sedation can be anxiety provoking. To understand more clearly if music can reduce anxiety, an integrative research review was conducted to compare music during invasive procedures or perioperatively without general anesthesia to standard care. This review reveals that music may be effective in lowering blood pressure and reducing medication requirements. Practice guidelines and suggestions for future research are offered to help IR nurses examine this intervention in more detail.
