通过36例头颈癌手术患者的样本,探讨了短暂的术前催眠体验的价值。15例患者自愿接受实验性催眠干预。对21例接受常规护理(无催眠)的患者进行住院病历追踪,并作为对照组。在相关人口统计学变量方面,催眠干预组和常规护理组具有可比性。催眠干预组的术后住院时间明显短于常规护理组。在催眠干预组中,催眠力与手术并发症呈负相关,与术中失血量呈负相关趋势。研究结果表明,想象催眠可能是预防性的,通过减少术后并发症的可能性使患者受益,从而将住院时间保持在预期范围内。建议进行具有足够大样本的受控、随机、临床试验,以提供适当力量进行统计分析的机会。
The value of a brief, preoperative hypnosis experience was explored with a sample of 36 head and neck cancer surgery patients. 15 patients volunteered for the experimental hypnosis intervention. 21 patients who received usual care (no hypnosis) were followed through their hospital charts and were used as a comparison group. Hypnotic intervention and usual care groups were comparable in terms of relevant demographic variables. Postoperative hospitalizations for the hypnotic intervention group were significantly shorter than for the usual care group. Within the hypnotic intervention group, hypnotizability was negatively correlated with surgical complications and there was a trend toward a negative correlation between hypnotizability and blood loss during surgery. Findings suggest that imagery-hypnosis may be prophylactic, benefitting patients by reducing the probability of postoperative complications and thereby keeping hospital stay within the expected range. Recommendations are presented for a controlled, randomized, clinical trial with a sufficiently large sample to provide the opportunity for statistical analysis with appropriate power.
