Background and Objectives: The study aimed to determine the effects of music intervention applied before and during angiography on pain, anxiety, and vital signs. Materials and Methods: The study was carried out in the coronary angiography unit of a public hospital in the province of Türkiye. The study population consisted of participants who underwent elective coronary angiography between January and April 2021. The randomized controlled trial included three groups. Music intervention was used before angiography in the intervention-1 group (n=34) and during angiography in the intervention-2 group (n=34). Routine care was used for the control group (n=34). Results: According to the study, post-procedure state anxiety scores of all three groups were significantly lower than their pre-procedure scores. Post-procedure blood pressure values of the intervention-1 and control groups were significantly lower than before. The median heart rate scores of intervention-2 and the control groups were significantly lower post-procedure than before. There was a significant difference in body temperature scores before and after the procedure in the control group. Conclusions: Based on the study results, it is anticipated that incorporating music intervention into routine practices will be beneficial. However, more studies are needed on this subject.
