Music versus midazolam during preoperative nerve block placements: a prospective randomized controlled study.
Music medicine is a non-pharmacologic intervention that is virtually harm-free, relatively inexpensive and has been shown to significantly decrease preoperative anxiety. In this study we aim to compare the use of music to midazolam as a preoperative anxiolytic prior to the administration of an ultrasound-guided single-injection peripheral nerve block. ⋯ Clinicaltrials.gov #NCT03069677.
