Abstract

Aims and objectives To assess the impact of a short hypnotic session on postoperative anxiety and pain in major orthopaedic surgery. Background Despite specific information given before a scheduled paediatric surgery, perioperative anxiety can become important. Design Randomised Clinical Study. Methods The study is an open single‐centre randomised clinical study comparing a “control” group versus a “hypnosis” group receiving a short hypnosis pre‐induction session as additional experimental analgesic procedure. The primary endpoint was the postoperative anxiety, blindly assessed using a visual analogue scale. Results The study involved 120 children (age 10–18 years). The results showed no difference between control group versus hypnosis group. Twenty‐four hours after surgery (Day+1), the patient's anxiety score was not different between control and hypnosis groups (median [Q1–Q3]: 1 [0; 3] vs. 0 [0; 3], respectively, p = .17). Each group experienced a significant decrease in anxiety level between the day before surgery (Day−1) and the day after surgery (Day+1) (median ([Q1–Q3]) difference of the anxiety score: 2 [4; 0] and 2 [4; 0], respectively, p
