In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Many clinical trials assessing the effectiveness of hypnosis have been conducted in recent years, some of which show that hypnosis reduces pain perception better than drug treatments administered to control groups, and that it is at least as effective as other complementary therapies (such as massage, acupuncture, yoga). However, their conclusions are limited by a significant risk of bias, and further studies with rigorous methodology remain necessary. The hypothesis of this study is that hypnosis support methods can reduce anxiety in patients requiring facial surgery under local anaesthesia, and thus improve their medical management. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of hypnosis support on the patient's state of anxiety before and after outpatient surgery under local anaesthesia in the Maxillofacial Surgery Department.
