HELP US implement Music Therapy in onco-hematological patients

Our goal is to implement music therapy during the hospitalization process in patients admitted to the Hematology Unit of the Hospital de la Santa Creu i Sant Pau. Music therapy relieves the emotional stress of the onco-hematological process in patients and their caregivers

Music therapy works!

Music therapy works! We already have the first results of our clinical study. Music therapy reduced anxiety, sadness, and physical discomfort in the first 20 patients admitted to our unit for intensive onco-hematological treatment. Therefore, a significant decrease in the scores obtained after participating in music therapy sessions (post-session) is observed compared to those at the beginning (pre-session).

Patients and music therapy

Quality of life is strongly affected in onco-hematological In our patients; this was involved in the physical sphere-functional, functional role, social, fatigue, nausea-vomiting, pain, and loss of appetite. The hospital admissions of our patients revolve around 3 weeks, and all that Help to improve your quality of life is always welcome.

Benefits

The benefits of music therapy do not end after hospital discharge; the participating patient can continue to enjoy it if  there has been a success integrating music and some musical self-care activity into day-to-day life.

Project satisfaction surveys support our work: SURVEY

Music therapy

Music therapy is an effective discipline in reducing pain, fatigue, and anxiety in cancer patients. It also improves mood, physical endurance, and relaxation, thus improving the quality of life of patients and their carers.

Targets

We will measure the impact of music therapy on onco-hematological patients and their carers. For this purpose, interviews will be conducted with validated quality of life (QOL) and mood (POMS-A) scales at baseline and post-intervention. Likewise, comparisons can be made with historical QOL records from our previous works.

Impact

Cancer patients have a high level of distress or emotional discomfort that is increased by the long admissions to our Unit and the isolation this entails. The patient goes through many changes in his state of mind, and this is where music therapy has shown its impact. It offers comprehensive positive support, especially in reducing anxiety, nausea and improving the ability to rest.

Donation

With your help, we can hire the most qualified staff and buy the necessary and appropriate material (individual musical instruments, tablets, speakers, etc.) that will allow the project to develop for at least 3 years.

We set ourselves this initial goal because it is the one that will allow us to evaluate the impact of the intervention in a reliable way.

Through this website, we will update the project’s results every six months and continue to give evidence of our experience.
