焦虑在乳腺癌幸存者中很常见。这项分析测试了一种催眠放松疗法对乳腺癌女性幸存者焦虑水平的影响，这种疗法是为了减少潮热。使用数字模拟量表和医院焦虑和抑郁量表-焦虑子量表评估焦虑。从干预前到干预后，每周一次的焦虑显著减少，并预示着从基线到最后一次干预后焦虑的总体减少。在这项分析中，催眠能力并不能显著预测每一次治疗前后或从基线到退出的焦虑降低。这些数据为使用催眠放松疗法来减少乳腺癌幸存者的焦虑提供了初步支持。
Anxiety is common among breast-cancer survivors. This analysis examined the effect of a hypnotic relaxation therapy, developed to reduce hot flashes, on anxiety levels of female breast-cancer survivors. Anxiety was assessed using a numeric analog scale and the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale-Anxiety subscale. Significant reductions in anxiety were found from pre- to postintervention for each weekly session and were predictive of overall reductions in anxiety from baseline to after the last intervention. In this analysis, hypnotizability did not significantly predict for anxiety reductions measured before and after each session or from baseline to exit. These data provide initial support for the use of hypnotic relaxation therapy to reduce anxiety among breast-cancer survivors.
