Pain and anxiety are closely associated with bone marrow aspirates and biopsies. To determine whether hypnosis administered concurrently with the procedure can ameliorate these morbidities, the authors randomly assigned 80 cancer patients undergoing bone marrow aspirates and biopsies to either hypnosis or standard of care. The hypnosis intervention reduced the anxiety associated with procedure, but the difference in pain scores between the two groups was not statistically significant. The authors conclude that brief hypnosis concurrently administered reduces patient anxiety during bone marrow aspirates and biopsies but may not adequately control pain. The authors explain this latter finding as indicating that the sensory component of a patient's pain experience may be of lesser importance than the affective component. The authors describe future studies to clarify their results and address the limitations of this study.
疼痛和焦虑与骨髓抽吸和活检密切相关。为了确定在进行该程序的同时进行催眠是否可以改善这些病态，作者随机将 80 名接受骨髓抽吸和活检的癌症患者分配到催眠组或常规护理组。催眠干预降低了与该程序相关的焦虑，但两组之间的疼痛评分差异没有统计学意义。作者得出结论，同时进行短暂的催眠可减轻骨髓抽吸和活检过程中患者的焦虑，但可能无法充分控制疼痛。作者解释说，这一发现表明患者疼痛体验的感觉成分可能不如情感成分重要。作者描述了未来的研究来阐明他们的结果，并解决该研究的局限性。
