Abstract
Background: High Blood Pressure is ranked as the third most important risk factor for attributable burden of diseases in South Asia. Research from several countries have consistently shown that the treatment of risk factors such as hypertension has a higher impact on CVD than the treatment of established CVD Studies have reported the benefits of music therapy on blood pressure in hypertensive patients. Methods: The present study is an evaluatory quasi experimental study to find out the effect of music therapy on hypertensive patients. Selected 80 primary hypertensive clients 40 for control and experimental group. Results: The findings imply that there is a significant difference in pretest and post-test – 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 days between the experimental and control group which shows that music therapy helps to maintain the systolic blood pressure. The obtained “t” value on pretest 0.17 shows that homogeneity was maintained between the groups. The “t” values on posttest were 3.46, 5.02, 7.90, 11.98, 16.12, 21.93 and 22.24 significant at 0.01 level. The findings imply that there is a significant difference in pretest and posttest – 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7days between the experimental and control group which shows that music therapy helps to maintain the diastolic blood pressure. Conclusion: Music may improve systolic blood pressure and should be considered to be component of care of hypertensive patients.
