Conversational Hypnosis for Peripherical Veinous Access (HYPNACESS)

Not Applicable
Conditions
Vascular Access Site Pain
Interventions
Other: Conversational hypnosis script
Other: Standard script
Registration Number
NCT04358094
Lead Sponsor
Central Hospital, Nancy, France
Brief Summary

The peripherical veinous catheterization is required for anesthesia. However, it's a painful procedure and causes stress or even phobia.

Hypnosis can be seen as an interesting tool. Conversational hypnosis needs no training. It is used by script, which makes it easier.

The working hypothesis for study is that the conversational hypnosia script reduces pain during the set up of peripherical veinous access.

The main objective is the analgesia assessment of conversational hypnosis script for peripherical veinous catheter set up versus standard script in operating room. A nurse anesthetist is reading the conversational script or standard script during the procedure. The nurse anesthetist is untrained for hypnosis.

The secondary objective are the level of anxiety, patient satisfaction within the perioperative period (EVAN G questionnaire), the heart rate and the evaluation how nurse anesthetist feels about using the script after each use.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Analgesia assessment by digital pain scaleimmediately after applying the peripherical veinous catheter dressing

Digital pain scale: it describes the severity of the pain On this scale, "0" represents "no pain" and "10" represents "the worst possible pain"

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Heart rateduring the procedure

maximum heart rate

Nurse anesthetist feeling about using the script after each use by digital scaleimmediately after procedure

Evaluate how nurse anesthetist feels about using the script after each use by digital scale ranging from 0 to 10.

On this scale, "0" represents " uncomfortable" and "10" represents " very comfortable "

Level of anxiety by numerical scalebefore randomization and immediately after peripherical veinous catheter set up

Digital scale: it describes the severity of the pain On this scale, "0" represents "no anxiety" and "10" represents "the worst possible anxiety"

patient satisfaction within the perioperative period (EVAN G questionnaire)between 4 and 48 hours after the procedure

EVAN G questionnaire: Score from 0 to 100

The higher the score, the higher the level of patient satisfaction
