[A randomized controlled trial on light music therapy for preventing intensive care unit delirium in patients undergoing invasive mechanical ventilation].
摘要
OBJECTIVE: To explore the effect of light music therapy on delirium in intensive care unit (ICU) patients undergoing invasive mechanical ventilation, and provide evidence-based support for clinical prevention of delirium. METHODS: A prospective randomized controlled trial was conducted. 140 patients with invasive mechanical ventilation admitted to the department of respiratory and critical care medicine of First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University from January 2024 to January 2025 were enrolled. The patients were divided into intervention group and control group using a random number table method. The control group received routine treatment and nursing care, while the intervention group received light music therapy three times a day for 30 minutes each time for 7 consecutive days. The confusion assessment method-ICU (CAM-ICU) was used to evaluate delirium, and the incidence of delirium within 7 days was statistically analyzed. Richmond agitation-sedation score (RASS), critical care pain observation tool (CPOT) score, mechanical ventilation duration, the length of ICU stay, and ICU stay expenses were record. RESULTS: = 7.687, P = 0.006). There was no significantly difference in RASS score between the two groups before enrollment (P = 0.840). After intervention, the RASS score in the intervention group significantly decreased, from 2.00 points on the 1st day of enrollment to 0.00 points on the 7th day, while the control group only decreased from 2.00 points to 1.50 points. The decreasing trend of the intervention group was more pronounced, especially on the 3rd day (P = 0.047) and the 7th day (P =0.005), with significant differences between the groups. The time effect (F = 18.929, P < 0.001), group effect (F = 6.655, P = 0.011), and time group interaction effect (F = 7.372, P < 0.001) of the two groups of RASS score were significant, suggesting that light music therapy has better timeliness and sustainability in improving patients' sedation status.
