Recorded summary
Among 112 bronchoscopy patients, the binaural-music arm showed a larger numerical reduction in state anxiety than plain music or no music, with reductions in blood pressure.
Recorded limitations
The abstract mainly reports within-group changes, so those numbers alone do not establish superiority over plain music. The trial was retrospectively registered.
Evidence and provenance
Chapter Trust Factor uses a minimum of three distinct qualifying studies. Publication records retain their own evidence and assessment.
