À propos de ce contenu audio

Scientific evidence suggests that music in the operating room significantly enhances surgical performance, mood, and stress reduction, though it requires careful management to avoid communication risks. While classical music is objectively linked to higher task accuracy and speed, most surgeons actually prefer rock or pop, highlighting that personal familiarity is a vital factor in maintaining a calm "flow state." The provided text emphasizes that the benefits of an improved soundscape are best realized when volume remains below 60 dB and teams use protocols to silence music during critical surgical moments. Interestingly, music acts as a non-pharmacologic intervention capable of suppressing stress hormones like cortisol in both doctors and patients. However, a "communication paradox" exists where music may help an individual surgeon’s focus while simultaneously making it five times more likely that staff will misunderstand or miss verbal instructions. Ultimately, the sources advocate for treating music like a strategic tool that must be balanced with the safety needs of the entire medical team.
