Brief summary
The use of music as medical therapy for the treatment of mental health conditions like depression and anxiety is well established. Furthermore, music is sometimes played in operating rooms and several small single center studies done during cardiology and interventional radiology procedures have demonstrated that the use of music can decrease in the use of sedation medications, pain, and anxiety during the procedures. These past studies have only looked at the impact on the participants, as the music was delivered to the participants only through headphones. This means that the impact of music on the healthcare team was not studied. However, separate systematic literature reviews on the impact of playing music in operating rooms during surgical procedures have highlighted some positive effects music has on the surgeon and the surgical team. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of playing music during interventional radiology procedures on the participants and the healthcare team. One way of studying this is to compare the responses and experience of participants and healthcare team that hear ambient music during the procedure with those who did not.
