An interventional study of Music intervention and No music in Anxiety, sponsored by University of Alabama at Birmingham. Completed at 1 site in United States. Open to participants aged 19 Years and older, including healthy volunteers. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2019-06-14.

The purpose of this research study is to examine the effects of playing classical music in the waiting room on caregiver anxiety. People who enter the study will be asked a few identifier questions including age and relation to patient and then will be asked fill out a survey regarding anxiety.
The study investigators will initially screen for participants based on the patient's acuity level. If the patient meets the low acuity requirement and if they have a wait time greater than 20 minutes then the caregiver will be approached to obtain informed consent once they have been placed in a room. If they choose to be included in the study, the patient's medical record number will be recorded, a personal identification number will be assigned, and the patient's information will be entered into the personal identification number key and into our research database. A questionnaire asking participants age and relation to patient and the state-trait anxiety inventory will be administered to the caregiver. An additional question of perceived wait time will also be asked.
