To investigate whether listening to music at the time of embryo transfer reduces anxiety levels in women undergoing assisted conception treatment.
An assessor-blinded randomized case control study in an IVF center, England UK will randomise women into 'music' (listened to self-selected music during embryo transfer) or 'control' (no music) groups. Participants will complete the Spielberger State-Trait Anxiety Inventory prior to, and immediately following a post-treatment observation period. Total scores will be compared.
