Module 6: End of Life Care

Rasmussen College NUR2243:

Professional Nursing Skills I Instructor:


End of Life Care

The article I have chosen is on Music Therapy and the benefit it offers and that is has

been increasingly offered as a component of palliative or hospice care at the end-of-life. The

patient population is patients in hospice or end-of-life cares and their families. Some correlating

factors were found in a study conducted as following; Researchers conducted a random

controlled trial test to evaluate the physiologic effect of Music Therapy in terminally ill patients

receiving palliative care. The patients were assigned either to live music therapy sessions or to

prerecorded mindfulness-based relaxation sessions. Patients in the music therapy group

experienced more substantial vascular sympathetic tone reductions, which was used as a marker

for increased relaxation and decreased pain (Ittner, Woten, 2018). It was also noted that a single

session of music therapy was determined by researchers to dramatically reduce agitation in

hospice patients (Ittner, Woten, 2018). While conducting the study concerning any current

diagnosis or comorbidities, it was founded that music therapy may effectively reduce pain in

palliative and end-of-life care. Still, it doesn't improve the overall quality of life in patients

receiving palliative care (Ittner, Woten, 2018).

It is essential that when this type of therapy is conducted that a patients culture is

taken into account, but as far as music therapy goes, according to the American Music Therapy

Association (AMTA), music therapy (MT) is the therapeutic, evidence-based use of music

provided by a person who has completed an accredited music therapy. Music therapists must

adhere to the AMTA Standards of Clinical Practice, which require a referral, assessment,

treatment planning, program implementation, and documentation, and need the music therapist to

undergo regular supervision and participation in continuing education (Ittner, Woten, 2018).
