RESULTS OF CLINICAL TRIAL PUBLISHED BY
THEÂ UNITED STATESÂ NATIONAL LIBRARY OF MEDICINE
“In the music group, levels of oxytocin increased significantly in contrast to the control group for which the trend over time was negative i.e., decreasing values. Subjective relaxation levels increased significantly more and there were also a significant higher levels of PaO2 in the music group compared to the control group. There was no difference in mean arterial blood pressure, heart rate and SaO2 between the groups.”¹
