Anxiety, irritation and unrest of many women in connection with the decision for a vacuum aspiration is very great – also the anxiety concerning the operation itself.

Due to the enormous mental stress the psycho-emotional profile of many women often documents nearly psychopathic states. In such a state an effective release of stress and a psycho-emotional harmonization is helpful. By the help of the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory the investigation wanted to document in how far the Medical Resonance Therapy Music^® could achieve this.

Under investigation were 32 women in two groups: an experimental group of 19 patients at the age of 20-37, who listened to Medical Resonance Therapy Music^® before, during and after the operation and did not receive any medication and a control group of 13 women who did not listen to MRT-Music^® but were treated with spasmolytica and narcotics instead.

After the treatment complete normalization of the mental functions was again re-established in 22,2% of the women, in 44,4% a clear improvement could be documented, no change took place in 11,1% and 22,3% of the women experienced a certain aggravation. This means that 66,6% of the women experienced a release or clear reduction of psychic manifestations of stress. Before the operation the state of two patients was near to an acute psychopathic and schizophrenia-like state. After the treatment with Medical Resonance Therapy Music^® nearly all disturbances disappeared.

Already after one treatment with Medical Resonance Therapy Music^® a normalization could be observed: depressive moods started to vanish, hysterical traits began to disappear and aggression reduced remarkably. The aggravations concerned a growth in hypochondria as well as the appearance of an auto-agressive tendency.

In this group no woman experienced complete normalization, 23% experienced a certain improvement, in 15,45% no change occurred and in 61,55% a certain aggravation was registered. Improvements concerned the schizophrenia-like symptoms, but much more often the deterioration of these symptoms was registered. More than half of the women in this group suffered from depression, sometimes in their covered form.
