Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of music therapy on state anxiety and pain among patients undergoing burn dressing changes. Method: A convenience sample of 32 adult burn patients who were eligible and provided consent were included in the study which was a quasi-experimental study of a nonequivalent control group pretest-posttest design. Fifteen patients in the control group received the routine burn dressing changes but 17 patients in the experimental group listened to self-selected music through headphones connected to a CD player during burn dressing changes for three days. All subjects of the music group chose the type of music that would relax them. Before and after burn dressing changes, subjects completed the State Anxiety Inventory and self-report of pain scores. Result: There was a significant reduction in state anxiety before and after burn dressing changes in those who received music therapy in contrast to those who did not receive music therapy. The music group reported lower pain scores before and after burn dressing changes than did the non-music group. Conclusion: These findings indicate that music therapy composed of self-selected music is a valuable intervention for the treatment of pain and anxiety in patients undergoing burn dressing changes.

The case study for this research is a middle school music room located in Iksan City, Korea. Although the room is used for teaching music, indiscreet sound-absorbing materials were applied within the space. Accordingly, a number of difficulties have been experienced when using the room. During a music lesson, the sound-volume is inadequate for music appreciation, while the music performance has an arid sound due to an insufficient echo. In order to control the obstructive factors resulting from a short Reverberation Time, the acoustic factor is optimized in this study by using an Acoustic Simulation, following an arrangement of Acoustic Design. A Psycho-acoustics Experiment was conducted using the Auralizational Technique, whereby the Virtual Acoustic Field can be experienced at the design stage.

Methods: The subjects for this study were collected from 44 patients who were admitted in F hospital, located in D city from July 1 to July 31 in 2008. The subjects were divided into two groups: 23 experimental group members and 21 control members. While the control group was not received any additional intervention, the experimental group was received music therapy intervention. Data analysis were performed by the chi-square test, t-test and ANCOVA with SPSS/WIN 12.0 Program. Results: The 1st hypothesis is, "the experimental group who received music therapy would have less pain score than the control group who did not receive music therapy", was rejected (F=2.33, p=.14). The 2nd hypothesis is, "the experimental group who received music therapy would have less depression score than the control group who did not receive music therapy", was supported (F=11.616, p=.001). These results demonstrated that music therapy to terminally patients was an effective method in decreasing depression.

In case a middle school music room locating in Iksan City, this space had been finished its construction work with the indiscreet sound-absorbing materials despite the music lesson is taught thereat. Accordingly, when music lesson since it sounds aridly due to insufficiency of echo and sound-volume feeling in music appreciation or music performance sound, there is some difficulty in the music lesson. For the purpose to control the obstructive factors owing to such short Reverberation Time, it optimizes the acoustic factor using Acoustic Simulation after arrangement of Acoustic Design, it has conducted a Psycho-acoustics Experiment using the Auralizational Technique that can experience the Virtual Acoustic Field at its designing stage. As the result of investigation about the acoustic satisfaction on the relevant subject space and the satisfaction with regard to the pertinent each items, it was known that the valuation on acoustic performance was evidently improved at 'after-reformation' than 'before-reformation'. It is considered that such material could be utilized as the useful material that can improve the architectural acoustic factor when construction and renovation of any middle school music room in the future.
