Association between Operating Room Noise and Physiological and Psychological Status of Patients Undergoing Spinal Surgery.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
aimThe study aims to investigate the effects of operating room (OR) noise on physiological and psychological parameters in patients undergoing spinal surgery and evaluate the effectiveness of targeted nursing care.
methodsIn this retrospective clinical study, 200 patients scheduled for elective spinal surgery were enrolled and divided into standard nursing ( n = 94) and noise control ( n = 106) groups based on the nursing methods received. The standard nursing group received routine perioperative care, whereas the noise control group received additional noise control care. Physiological parameters [blood pressure, heart rate (HR), and salivary cortisol] were measured at five time points. Psychological status was assessed preoperatively and postoperatively using the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) and the Visual Analog Scale for Stress (VAS-S). Patient satisfaction was evaluated using a modified Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems Surgical Care Survey (S-CAHPS). Continuous variables were compared using independent t -tests, and categorical variables were compared using chi-square tests.
resultsOR noise levels showed no statistical differences between groups ( P > 0.05). However, the noise control group experienced significantly less time with noise exceeding 70 dBA ( P < 0.001). During the main operative and closure phases, the noise control group demonstrated significantly lower systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial pressure, and HR than the standard nursing group (all P < 0.05). The noise control group displayed significantly lower intraoperative and postoperative salivary cortisol levels ( P < 0.001). Postoperatively, this group showed greater reductions in STAI and VAS-S scores ( P < 0.001) and perceived stress levels ( P < 0.001), as well as significantly higher S-CAHPS scores ( P < 0.001).
conclusionTargeted nursing care aimed at mitigating OR noise is associated with improved physiological stability, reduced psychological stress, and higher patients satisfaction in individuals undergoing spinal surgery.
