Interstitial Lung Disease
Conditions
Brief summary
This is uncontrolled, interventional feasibility study for determining the effects medical music on anxiety levels in subjects with ILD. Enrolled subjects will be asked to complete questionnaires and undergo physiologic measurements prior to listening to medical music. The music intervention will be for approximately 30 minutes. Post intervention questionnaires and physiologic measurements will be done.
Detailed description
The Medical Music intervention includes playlists that contains songs specifically designed, recorded, and optimized through the provisionally-patented methods, to treat their co-morbid anxiety. The duration of the medical music playlist is 30 minutes. Enrolled subjects will be asked to complete questionnaires to assess anxiety, a questionnaire related to their music preferences, and undergo physiological measurements (vital signs, galvanic skin response, and heart rate variability) before and after the intervention.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Feasibility of using a medical music intervention as a treatment for anxiety in subjects with ILD, as measured by descriptive evaluation. | Baseline to 30 minutes |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Change in State Anxiety Inventory scores before and after intervention | Baseline to 30 min | The State-Trait Anxiety Inventory Questionnaire is a psychological inventory based on a 4-point Likert scale and consists of 40 questions on a self-report basis. It measures two types of anxiety - state anxiety, or anxiety about an event, and trait anxiety, or anxiety level as a personal characteristic. |
| Change in Visual Analogue Scale scores for Anxiety and Distress (VAS-A) before and after intervention | Baseline to 30 min | The VAS-A is a psychometric response scale to measure respondents level of anxiety and stress by indicating a position along a continuous line between two end-points (not at all to extremely). |
| Change in Borg Dyspnea Scale scores before and after intervention | Baseline to 30 min | The Borg Dyspnea Scale measures perceived dyspnea on a scale from 0 to 10. |
| Change in heart rate variability before and after intervention | Baseline to 30 min | Heart rate variability will be measured before and after intervention |
| Change in galvanic skin response before and after intervention | Baseline to 30 min | Galvanic skin response will be measured before and after intervention |
