The Effects Of Music In Retrograde Intrarenal Surgery

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
This study aimed to investigate the effect of music listening during the preoperative and postoperative stages in patients undergoing retrograde intrarenal surgery(RIRS) on basic life findings, anxiety, pain, and the amount of analgesic used. This is a randomized controlled experimental study. The study was conducted with two groups: the intervention group (n=30) and control group (n=30). The control group received standard care. In contrast, the intervention group, in addition to standard care, was listened to the music by the researchers for 15 minutes one hour before their surgery.

What is the study measuring?
-----------------
Primary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Visual Analog Scale for Anxiety (VAS-A) | VAS-A is a 10 cm long measuring instrument with the score range from 0 to 10 with 0 points showing no anxiety and 10 points showing I feel a lot of anxiety . | 2 days | 

Secondary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Visual Analog Scale for Pain (VAS) | VAS scale is a single-dimensional scale that is commonly used to evaluate pain severity. According to VAS, pain intensity is rated as no pain with 0 points, and the most severe pain imaginable with 10 points. Pain intensity ranges were determined by VAS as follows; mild pain below 3 points, as moderate pain between 3 and 6 points, and as severe pain above 6 points.The VAS pain scale was applied to the patients once on the first postoperative day, for the level of pain they felt. | 1 day |
