Improving the Quality of Anesthesia Induction by Reducing Preoperative Anxiety in the Operating Room

Within the two weeks prior to surgery, in addition to the standard preoperative care currently in place, the patient will receive a 30-minute visit from a nurse anesthetist trained in hypnosis. This is an added procedure complementing the anesthesia consultation. The visit is divided into two parts: 10 minutes to review and clarify the explanations given by the anesthesiologist and surgeon, and 20 minutes of a formal hypnosis session. A personalized liaison form will be completed to facilitate communication between the consultation and the operating room.
