NCT ID NCT07560384
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether listening to music can help lower anxiety in adults who have been on a breathing machine for more than 21 days. Two hundred participants will either get standard care or also listen to calming music through headphones for 30 minutes, twice a day, for two weeks. The goal is to see if music therapy improves anxiety, pain, sleep, and helps patients get off the ventilator faster.
