To evaluate the effect of musical therapy before and after gynecological surgeries on pain relief following surgery. The hypothesis is that musical therapy is effective in pain relief following surgical procedures.
The intention with the study is to focus on the first postoperative phase in a case of pain upon gynecologic abdominal surgery. The literature search revealed studies reporting that participates who had pre-operative session of music intervention for relaxation experienced a greater level of reducing pain levels both pre and post their operation than in the participates in the control group. It is therefore a decision to include one pre operative session of intervention with music therapy in the design. The study will carry out at the Gynecologic Unit, in Rambam Hospital, Israel.
