Analysis of GA-VAS Anxiety Scores and Propofol Required to Reach 70 on BIS Monitor

Amount/Score LM Group n = 67 RM Group n = 65 UC Group n = 62
Propofol
    Amount to reach BIS 70, mg
        Mean (SD) 67.2 (53.7) 61.9 (34.1) 70.5 (35.2)
    Difference in means compared with UC group
        Estimate (95% CI) −3.3 (−19.0 to 12.4) −8.6 (−20.8 to 3.5)
        Effect size* −0.09 −0.24

Abbreviations: BIS, Bispectral Index; GA-VAS, Global Anxiety-Visual Analog Scale; LM, live music; RM, recorded music; SD, standard deviation; UC, usual care.

*

Effect size is defined as the difference in means divided by the standard deviation of the UC group.

Differs from the usual care group (P < .001, Wilcoxon rank sum test).

Adjusted for pretest GA-VAS. Estimates the mean change in GA-VAS when baseline GA-VAS equals 64.7 (the pretest mean GA-VAS for all groups combined).

§

Difference in group means, adjusted for pretest GA-VAS.

Effect size is defined as the difference in adjusted means, divided by standard deviation of the post-test measurement for the usual care group.
