- Abstract
The potency of background music on the psyche and consciousness of a human being is important. However, it is not explored in a detailed way. In our research we tried to examine whether appropriately selected and applied background music in one-day surgery has the positive potency to soothe the negative emotions of the selected healthcare professionals. We aimed to determine how it affects the emotions of medical staff and healthcare professionals in the operating room. The research sample consisted of three surgeons and two scrub nurses who worked in the operating theatres of JZS Hospital Bánovce nad Bebravou. The research method was an unstructured interview with healthcare professionals. The analysis of interviews shows that the background music minimized stress, improved wellbeing and atmosphere in the workplace in the four of five respondents. However, the music selection was very important.
