Official title

The Power of Healing Statements on Post Operative Pain Control: A Randomized Controlled Trial

Brief summary

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

This is a randomized clinical trial comparing the severity of post-operative pain and use of pain medication in women who are and are not exposed to healing statements before undergoing vaginal hysterectomy with minimally invasive sacrocolpopexy. The investigators' hypothesis is that those who are read healing statements before surgery will require less post-operative pain medications and experience less severe pain than those who do not hear the statements.
