description PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to test effects of music therapy on stress due to preterm labor and uterine contraction in pregnant women with preterm labor. METHODS: An experimental research design was used. Participants were 35 pregnant women with preterm labor who were between 20 to 37 weeks of pregnancy: control group (n=18) received only tocolytic drugs, while experimental group (n=17) received additional music therapy. In the experimental group, Traumerei was applied before Non-Stress Test (NST) from the second day to fifth day after admission as music therapy. RESULTS: There was a statistically significant difference in stress due to preterm labor (z=-3.368, p<.001) between the two groups. CONCLUSION: The music therapy is an effective method for reducing the stress of pregnant women with preterm labor.
