About this trial

Music therapy is a non-invasive method with no side effects and can be administered independently by a nurse. Nevertheless, it should be noted that music therapy can be discontinued if any adverse effects are experienced by patients during the research process. After completing the music listening session, eye masks and earplugs, which are effective in reducing sleep problems in patients, will be applied from 11:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m.

All patients will be asked to complete the DAÖ at 10:00 PM and 10:30 PM. The RCUÖ will be requested to be completed by all patients between 8:00 AM and 9:00 AM the following morning.

Participants' anxiety levels

In this study, the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) developed by Spielberger and colleagues will be used to measure feelings experienced at the moment. The adaptation of the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory into Turkish, as well as its validity and reliability studies, were conducted by Öner and Le Comte. The scale consists of the SSI, which determines how an individual feels at a particular moment and under specific conditions, and the State Anxiety Scale (SAS), which determines how an individual feels regardless of their current situation and conditions. State anxiety is the fear felt by an individual due to stressful situations they are in and is an indicator of the individual's feelings of tension and unease . The response options in the SSI are grouped into four classes: (1) Not at all, (2) A little, (3) Very much, and (4) Completely. There are two types of statements in the SAD. These are (1) direct or straightforward and (2) reverse statements.

Time frame
Within the State Anxiety Scale framework, the study group will receive 30 minutes of music at 22:00 on their first night in the Coronary Intensive Care Unit, alongside routine care, via wireless Bluetooth headphones under researcher supervision.

Sleep Quality

In this study, the RCUÖ , developed by Richards in 1987, will be used to measure the sleep quality of patients during their first night in the coronary care unit. The scale consists of 6 items that assess the depth of nighttime sleep, the time it takes to fall asleep, the frequency of waking up, the time spent awake after waking up, the quality of sleep, and the noise level in the environment. Each item is evaluated using the visual analog scale technique, on a scale from 0 to 100. On the scale, scores between "0-25" indicate very poor sleep, while scores between "76-100" indicate very good sleep. The sixth item on the scale, which assesses environmental noise, is excluded from the total score assessment, and the total scale score is calculated based on the five items. As the scale score increases, patients' sleep quality improves. The Cronbach α value of the original scale was found to be 0.82, and the Turkish validity and reliability study was conducted by Karaman

Time frame
The Richard-Campbell Sleep Questionnaire will be administered to all patients between 08:00 and 09:00 on the morning following their first night of hospitalization.
