Background: To assess the effectiveness and harms of music to reduce anxiety and pain in cystoscopy. Methods: We searched MEDLINE (OVID), EMBASE, LILACS and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) from inception to nowadays. We included clinical trials, involving the assessment of the effect of music in cystoscopy. The primary outcomes were pain and anxiety measured by any scale and the secondary outcomes were length of stay, physiological parameters (blood pressure or heart rate) and adverse effects. Cochrane Collaboration tool was used to assess the risk of bias. We performed the statistical analysis in R and reported information about mean difference (MD) with 95% CI. Heterogeneity was evaluated using the I2 test. Results: We included six studies in our qualitative and quantitative analysis. Five studies used a flexible cystoscope and the other one performed the procedure with a rigid cystoscope. Music was played during the procedure in five studies, while the other was before it. All studies compared music vs. no intervention. Almost all items were assessed as low risk of bias; however, the allocation concealment was unclear in all the studies. We found a MD of −1.33 (95% CI −2.45 to −0.21) (I2=97.2%) favoring music for pain and a MD of −8.42 (95% CI −15.02, −1.82) (I2=99.6%) was found, favoring music for anxiety. Conclusions: Playing music might be an effective intervention that lowers pain and anxiety in patients who undergo cystoscopy.
