NCT ID NCT07770204
First seen Aug 18, 2026 · Last updated Aug 18, 2026
Summary
This trial tests whether listening to meditation music before and after elective surgery can help adults with type 2 diabetes control their blood sugar, feel less anxious, and sleep better. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either routine care plus self-selected meditation music or routine care alone. The study measures blood glucose levels, anxiety scores, and sleep quality to see if this simple, safe intervention makes a difference in surgical recovery.
