Summary

This study tests whether listening to ASMR or white noise before bed can improve sleep quality for adults recovering from elective lower leg surgery. Participants are randomly assigned to listen to a 30-minute ASMR recording, white noise, or receive routine care. Sleep quality is measured using a standard questionnaire on the first two nights after surgery. The goal is to find a simple, non-drug way to help patients rest better during recovery.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
ASMR audio and white noise audio
What this could lead to
If effective, this could offer a simple, drug-free way to help people sleep better after surgery.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial. The effect may be small or no better than routine care, and results may not apply to other types of surgery.
