Core Tip	Being successful in managing patients undergoing kidney transplantation goes beyond passing on best medical advice and performing operations with cutting edge technology. It requires building rapport and informing them about the procedures awaiting, like transplantation and arteriovenous fistula creation. However, having to go through these procedures may cause anxiety and feeling powerless. One of our important duty as a physician should be to keep our patients on task and help them manage their anxiety. This article conceptualizes music therapy as an effective tool to relieve patient anxiety during fistula creation surgery by providing randomized, single-blind clinical trial data.
