Effect of music listening on delirium after hip fracture operations (MLDHFO) in a regional hospital in Taiwan: a randomised controlled trial protocol.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Postoperative delirium is a serious complication occurring in 10.09%-51.28% of geriatric patients undergoing surgery for hip fractures. Delirium has resulted in poorer functional recovery, increased readmission rates, repeat surgeries and elevated mortality. Perioperative music listening is a promising non-pharmacological intervention with beneficial effects on delirium. This trial aims to evaluate the effect of perioperative music listening on postoperative delirium in patients with femur fracture undergoing surgery.
