Preoperative Hypnosis versus Mindfulness for Reducing Postoperative Symptoms in Breast Surgery: A Randomized Clinical Trial
Overview
This randomized clinical trial compares the efficacy of a single preoperative hypnosis session against mindfulness for reducing postoperative symptoms in 203 women undergoing breast cancer surgery. The study reports that patients receiving hypnosis experienced significantly lower levels of fatigue, emotional distress, and fentanyl use compared to those receiving mindfulness. It also notes that preoperative anxiety moderated the effect on emotional distress, with greater benefits observed in individuals with higher baseline anxiety.
