The Cochrane Library has produced a series of podcasts providing audio summaries of some of the systematic reviews that are available from one of its regularly updated collection of evidence-based medicine databases, the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews. Cochrane systematic reviews analyse what evidence is available from published research studies for or against the use of certain treatments and healthcare interventions and then provide recommendations on what is the most effective or appropriate. This podcast enables listeners to hear a short commentary about the evidence available for the use of music for the reduction of anxiety and stress in coronary heart disease patients. The Cochrane Library is made available by the Cochrane Collaboration, an international not-for-profit and independent body, making up-to-date, accurate information about the effects of healthcare freely available.
