Research on music...

A research has been conducted by the University of Yale regarding the connection between music and anesthetics that are used during surgery.

Three groups were identified. One group didn't hear any sounds. One group heard operooting room sounds and another group heard good music.

It was found that the group who are exposed to music needed only 30% less IV sedatives, that is anesthetic drug. This is, in medical point of view, due to increased flow of endorphins which reduces the pain.
