Effectiveness and reliability of hypnosis in stereotaxy: a randomized study.
Sabina Catalano ChiuvéShahan MomjianAdriana WolffMarco Vincenzo CorniolaPublished in: Acta neurochirurgica (2024)
In this unblinded, randomized study, hypnosis does not influence pain, anxiety, and distress during awake SF fixation but modulates pain memory over time and may prevent the integration of awake painful procedures as a bad experience into the autobiographical memory of patients suffering from PD. A randomized controlled study with more data is necessary to confirm our findings.
