Official title

A Randomized Controlled Trial of Hypnosis for Pain and Itch Following Burn Injuries

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether hypnosis will decrease the intensity of either pain or itch in patients who have sustained a burn injury. Primary hypothesis: Hypnosis will provide more effective relief from post-burn itch and pain than a control intervention at 1-month, 3-months, 6-months and 1-year post-burn injury. Secondary hypothesis 1: Subjects treated with hypnosis will report better sleep quality and fewer symptoms of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Secondary Hypothesis 2: Subjects treated with hypnosis will require less escalation of the gabapentin doses and have lower average pain scores than those in the control group. Exploratory Hypothesis: Subjects who will randomize to the hypnosis treatment group early after injury will report lower rates of neuropathic pain and itch than subjects who will be enrolled in the study and receive hypnosis later in the healing process.
