CAROS ANTONIO D

The allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT Alo) is a therapeutic medical treatment for various neoplastic hematologic, congenital, genetic or acquired disorders. In this procedure which combines high-dose chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy and has a high degree of cytotoxicity, the patient experiences solitary confinement, which causes psychological distress, pain, anxiety, mood disorders and can lead him/her to depression. Music therapy was applied with the purpose of decreasing this social confinement. This is a randomized controlled trial. Method: n=100 patients were selected randomly. n=50 were selected for the Experimental Music Therapy Group (EMG) and n=50 for the Control Group (CG) who received the standard treatment. The intervention of live music was applied using music therapy methods and techniques. Assessment and quantification were made using the visual analog scale (VAS).
