This study was designed to investigate the effects of music medicine on anxiety, pain, and vital signs in women undergoing embryo transfer. The study followed a randomized controlled design and was conducted at the IVF unit of a university hospital. The sample consisted of women who met the specified inclusion criteria, and participants were assigned to the intervention and control groups using randomization. Data collection tools included a socio-demographic characteristics form, a vital signs recording form (blood pressure, pulse, respiratory rate, and oxygen saturation), the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI-I and II), and the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). The intervention group listened to patient-selected music during the embryo transfer process, while the control group received standard care. Measurements were taken before, during, and after the embryo transfer. The obtained data were analyzed using appropriate statistical methods to evaluate the effects of music on anxiety, pain levels, and vital signs. This study aims to improve women's embryo transfer experiences by contributing to nursing care and reproductive health practices.

State Anxiety Score
Timeframe: Measured at two time points: baseline (pre-test, upon admission to the room) and 15 minutes after the embryo transfer procedure (post-test).
