Pre- and perioperative suggestion in maxillofacial surgery: effects on blood loss and recovery

Hemodynamics following real and hypnosis-simulated phlebotomy

Blood pressure, blood flow and resistance curves were obtained in healthy blood donors during phlebotomy. Highly hypnotizable matched subjects were then hypnotized and donation was simulated by suggestion; the same hemodynamic changes were observed.

3084393 RCT

The effects of a comprehensive self-hypnosis training program on the use of factor VIII in severe hemophilia

Hemophiliac patients taught relaxation and self-hypnosis were able to significantly reduce their amount of factor concentrate used vs. a control group. The program was very cost effective.

Hypnosis for hemophiliacs: methodologic problems and risks

Discusses a single case of hemophilia and use of self-hypnosis, with inconsistencies in results. Also points out that when this highly suggestible patient was administered a standardized scale of hypnotic susceptibility that included re-experiencing a pleasant scene, the patient instead recalled an experience when his father had become angry with him and he subsequently developed a spontaneous intra-abdominal bleed. A few hours after the test was administered, the patient developed a spontaneous bleed in the same location.
