What this trial studies

This study investigates how preoperative education combined with intraoperative music therapy can reduce anxiety and pain in patients undergoing elective cesarean sections. Patients will be randomly assigned to either receive both preoperative education and music therapy or just routine education. The intervention includes personalized music played during surgery and for a short period afterward, with evaluations conducted at various time points to assess anxiety, pain, and recovery outcomes. The goal is to determine if this combined approach can enhance patient comfort and satisfaction during the perioperative period.
