Role of Music Therapy In Fournier's Gangrene

Fournier's gangrene (FG) is an acute, rapidly progressive, and potentially fatal, infective necrotizing fasciitis affecting the external genitalia, perineal or a perianal region, which commonly affects men, but can also occur in women and children.[1] Prompt surgical debridement and use of suitable broad-spectrum antibiotics is the corner stone for treatment of Fournier's gangrene. If early intervention is not done, Fournier's gangrene may lead to high mortality (20-30%).[2] Music therapy has been attempted as one of the adjuvant therapy in medicine, but on internet (google) we didn't find any study utilizing music therapy in Fournier's gangrene. This study highlights of role of music therapy as an adjuvant therapy in the management of Fournier's gangrene. Aim:This is a preliminary study to find the role of music therapy as an adjunct treatment in the management of Fournier's gangrene.
