Music Therapy During NIV Implantation in Pediatric Intensive Care Units

Non-invasive ventilation makes it possible to avoid intubation and improve patients' quality of life. However, pain is associated with discomfort and could lead to failure of this technique.

The aim of this study is to measure the effectiveness of music therapy on pain levels during non-invasive ventilation in critically ill children.

To this end, a pain score (Face Legs Activity Cry Consolability FLACC) will be assessed by raters blinded to the randomization arm during NIV initiation.

The FLACC score will be compared before and during implementation of NIV between two groups: a control group (without music therapy) and an experimental group (with music therapy).

Patient admitted to a Pediatric Intensive Care Unit are exposed to moderate to severe pain due to disease severity and invasive treatment or procedures.

Non invasive ventilation is an essential support in the treatment of infants and children with acute respiratory failure. Acceptance and tolerance are the keys to its success.

Comfort management, including pain management, is most often achieved through the administration of analgesic and/or sedative drugs (analgesics, anti-inflammatories, anxiolytics, hypnotics). However, these therapies, although effective, are not without risks, including potentially serious adverse effects (excessive sedation, prolonged hospitalization and ventilation, tolerance phenomena, withdrawal syndrome, delirium, constipation, etc.). These undesirable effects and their deleterious consequences prompt a more comprehensive approach to patient management, optimizing therapeutic strategies with the common aim of improving patient comfort and pain relief. One specific program, "Music Care" is based on a "U sequence" which use tempo and rhythm variations following the U scheme, to relax patients.

This program will be evaluated in the pediatric intensive care department and the investigators will study the effects on the pain level during a non invasive ventilation setting for children with respiratory failure.

the investigators will compare the variation of the FLACC scores (before and during nopn invasive ventilation setting) to show a difference between both methods. The order (with or without) will be randomized.
