Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Objectives: This study aimed to determine the effect of music on nursing students' skills, anxiety, self-confidence perception, and vital signs.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Other: music
N/A

Detailed Description

Design: Single-blinded study with parallel groups. Setting: Faculty of Nursing. Participants:

Sixty first-year students who took the Nursing Fundamentals course were randomly assigned to the intervention (n = 30) and control (n = 30) groups.

Methods: Data were collected using the Student Information Form, Subjective Self-Confidence Assessment Tool, and State Anxiety Scale from April 6 to 11, 2022. The students in the intervention group listened to music for 15 min before and during the peripheral intravenous catheter placement skill practice, while no intervention was applied in the control group.

Intervention Model Description:
Single-blinded study with parallel groups.Single-blinded study with parallel groups.
Masking:
Single (Participant)
Masking Description:
Participant blinding was performed in this study. Students did not interact with each other while practicing the PIVC placement in different laboratory rooms on the same day. Thus, students were prevented from knowing their group allocation. In addition, when the students received information about the study, they did not know which group they belonged to because they were not informed about the groups. Investigators could not be blinded, as they knew the group allocation of each student group.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: music

Support was received from the Turkish Music Research and Promotion Group (TÜMATA) in choosing the music. To increase attention before and during the PIVC catheter placement skill practice in the intervention group, "Acemaşiran" music was played, which increases the sense of concentration and creativity. To reduce anxiety, "Pentatonic melodies" were played, which gave self-confidence and determination. The music was played from a computer in the vocational skills laboratory using a loudspeaker. During the entire skill practice, the students continued to listen to the music in a light tone.

Other: music
The students in the intervention group listened to music for 15 min before and during the peripheral intravenous catheter placement skill practice.

No Intervention: control

The students in the control group were given standard skills laboratory training without any intervention

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Anxiety evaluated using the State Anxiety Scale [It was applied 10 minutes after the intervention.]

    Scores ranging from 20 to 80 points are obtained in the scale.In the total score obtained.

  2. The skill level of the students was evaluated using the "IV Catheter Insertion Skill Checklist" [It was applied 30 minutes after the intervention.]

    A minimum of 0 and a maximum of 68 points could be obtained from the checklist.

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Students' self-confidence perceptions were determined using a subjective assessment tool. [It was applied 10 minutes after the intervention.]

    A score of "0" indicated the lowest self-confidence, and a score of "10" indicated the highest self-confidence.

  2. Blood pressure was evaluated with a sphygmomanometer. [It was measured 10 minutes after the intervention.]

    Accepted normal values: Systolic blood pressure: 100-120 mmHg, Diastolic blood pressure: 60-80 mmHg.

  3. Pulse was evaluated with a pulse oximeter device. [It was measured 10 minutes after the intervention.]

    Accepted normal values: 60-100 pulse /min

  4. Respiration was evaluated by observation. [It was measured 10 minutes after the intervention.]

    Accepted normal values:12-20 respiration /min

  5. Oxygen saturation was evaluated with a pulse oximetry device. [It was measured 10 minutes after the intervention.]

    Accepted normal values:SpO2: 95-100%.
