Download or read book THE USE OF HYPNOSIS IN SURGERY AND ANESTHESIOLOGY written by Lillian E. Fredricks and published by Charles C Thomas Publisher. This book was released on 2001-01-01 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of hypnosis in surgery and anesthesia does not seem to have any influence on operative mortality. However, hypnosis and hypnotic techniques teach patients a way to alter their body's reaction to the insult of surgery and all the poisons used to create unconsciousness. The use of hypnosis alters the psychological state of the patient which, in turn, influences the psychological reaction to the insult. This book describes in detail how to teach patients, in just a few minutes, what they can do to accomplish this. It also provides the vast amount of research that has been done to document these physiological changes that seem to be the result of the use of hypnosis. The author and her contributors have made it their goal to alleviate, prevent, and control both pain and suffering. They use hypnosis as an integral part of this effort and describe how it enhances all aspects of pain control. There are chapters on hypnosis as the sole anesthetic, as an adjunct to chemical anesthesia, and in conjunction with regional anesthesia. Additional topics include hypnosis in the intensive care unit and in the emergency room and hypnosis in obstetrics, gynecology, and pediatric surgery. The book concludes with several case studies from physician-patients. This excellent resource is intended to stimulate physicians to explore the vast capabilities of the human mind, when it is working together with the body, and with the help of unconsciousness, to accept hypnotic suggestion.
Download or read book Hypnosis in Anaesthesiology written by Jean Lassner and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-13 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the First European Congress of Anesthesiology, held in Vienna, Austria, in September, 1962, panel discussions on nineteen different subjects were held, each lasting approxi mately three hours. One, concerning Controversial Aspects of Resuscitation, was later edited by its chairman, PETER SAFAR, and published in 1963. At the request of the publisher, the discussion on hypnosis has been edited in a similar manner. The participants in the discussion on Hypnosis in Anes thesiology had agreed, prior to the meeting, on a list of questions to be debated, and Dr. STOKVIS' introductory statement on the nature of hypnosis was circulated among them in appropriate translations in order to give the debate a starting point. It had also been agreed that no formal papers should be read after this introduction, and that the participants should use at will the German, English or French language. Following each contribution it was the chairman's task to give a brief summary in the two other languages. Discussion was therefore somewhat slowed down and occasionally rendered difficult by misunderstandings or the omission of details. Drs. GUEGUEN, MOSCONI, and VOLGYESI, who were not able. to attend, had sent written contributions which the chairman presented briefly during the discussion. The present text has been worked out of the tape recording of the discussion and the chairman's correspondence with the panelists some time after the meeting. Whenever the original contributions were in French or German, the English translation has been the chairman's.

Download or read book Surgery in Hypnosis written by Mirjam Borsboom and published by Hypnosementor. This book was released on 2018-10-14 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Mirjam is confronted with a fibroadenoma - a connective and glandular tissue lump - in her chest, she asks Ina to accompany her to undergo the operation with hypnosis. This is the starting point of a special adventure in which Ina and Mirjam work towards the operation. The authors of Hypnosis in Surgery are Ina Oostrom, an internationally recognized teacher of hypnosis and hypnotherapy, and Mirjam Borsboom, an experienced hypnotherapist. The book Surgery in Hypnosis is a personal report of an operation performed with hypnosis as natural anesthesia. This event demonstrates the exceptional power of hypnosis. One of the most sensational applications of hypnosis is the removal of pain. This book takes the reader along in the complex preparation process, in which Ina delves into what the best hypnosis techniques are for Mirjam. Together they prepare Mirjam's subconscious as much as possible for the circumstances in the operating room. This thorough preparation seems to work well. An inserted trip to Nairobi results in the code words that Mirjam uses to get to the different hypnotic stages: acacia and simba. The operation itself is described from both Mirjam's and Ina's point of view, which gives a very complete picture of the special experience.Quote from the book Surgery in Hypnosis: "if you consider that Mirjam only used her own mind as a barrier against pain for 9 minutes, the powerful effect of hypnosis is undeniable." With this book, the authors convincingly demonstrate the power of hypnosis. The evaluation with the surgeon, the recommendations for subsequent operations and the numerous references to scientific research complete it.The use of hypnosis for pain relief in medical practice is not new. It was used before the advent of ether and chloroform in the era of the Scottish surgeon James Esdaile (1808-1859) who said about his experience with hypnosis: "In the last six years I have performed more than 300 major operations, most of them particularly serious cases. I did this without causing any pain and in all cases the insensitivity to pain was performed in this way."Who is this book for?This book is highly recommended for medical professionals who want to learn more about the power of hypnosis and its broad applicability in dealing with their patients. It is also a recommendation for patients who want to know how the power of their own subconscious can help them to undergo a medical procedure with less or no fear and pain. Learning self-hypnosis can be a perfect tool for this. For hypnotherapists and other professionals it is an instructive book about the many possibilities of hypnosis, supported by scientific research.Advance praise- I hope that the content will be an opportunity for the interested reader to delve into this new world of thought. This requires at least the necessary curiosity and the will to let go of old convictions. Hypnosis is the means par excellence.Franklin Sluijters, MD, CH National Guild of Hypnotists- The book by Ina and Mirjam lets you experience from close up how they, as pioneers with a centuries-old method, are taking a new step in the Dutch medical world of the 21st century. It is written clearly and recognizably, making it easy to read. You will be taken along in a special hypnosis adventure which I give to everyone who needs surgery.Monique van de Ven, hypnotherapist and certified surgery assistant
Download or read book The Practical Application of Medical and Dental Hypnosis written by Milton H. Erickson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-01-14 with total page 405 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "During the past several years there have been ever-increasing numbers of physicians, dentists, and psychologists interested in hypnosis, both therapeutic and investigative. Reliable sources of clinical information and instruction were practically non-existent except for a few scattered individuals. To meet this need, to interest universities, and to stimulate medical and dental schools to an awareness of the importance of teaching clinical hypnosis, a group of experienced clinicians competent in teaching were formed. Throughout the United States, under the auspices of various professional societies and universities, this group conducted seminars on hypnosis. "This book is compiled from the tape recordings of dozens of those seminars, and thus it contains the material as it was presented, with all the simplicity, directness, and effectiveness of the classroom presentation. "It is no more, no less, than a comprehensive presentation of the material upon which thousands of clinicians throughout the United States have based the initiation and development of their successful clinical use of hypnosis." -Milton H. Erickson, M.D. (1961)
Download or read book Consciousness Awareness and Anesthesia written by George A. Mashour and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2010-01-25 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hypnosis, amnesia, and immobility are three major therapeutic endpoints of general anesthesia. In one to two cases out of a thousand, hypnosis and amnesia are not achieved – often leaving a patient immobile but capable of experiencing and remembering intraoperative events. Awareness during general anesthesia is one of the most dreaded complications of surgery and is feared by patients and clinicians alike. Despite many advances in the field, there are also a number of unresolved questions that persist. Some of the difficulties in the detection and prevention of awareness during anesthesia relate to the underlying complexities of the neuroscientific basis of consciousness. Consciousness, Awareness, and Anesthesia is a multidisciplinary approach to both the scientific problem of consciousness and the clinical problem of awareness during general anesthesia. An international cadre of authors with expertise in anesthesiology, neurobiology, and philosophy provides a cutting-edge perspective. No other book on the subject has drawn from such a breadth of scholarship.

Download or read book Hypnosis in Therapy written by H. B. Gibson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-09-30 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1991, this book covers a comprehensive range of the applications of hypnotic techniques in therapy for psychological disorders, and medical conditions where such techniques are a valuable adjunct. In the years before publication psychologists, medical doctors, dentists and allied professional workers had come to make increasing use of hypnosis in their work, and there was a considerable amount of relevant research literature available in journals. Such literature is reviewed, and served as a practical guide for professionals at the time. The book begins by explaining what is meant by hypnosis today, and traces its historical background. Some fundamental questions such as individual differences in susceptibility to hypnosis are discussed in relation to therapy. Separate chapters are devoted to the key topics of behaviour therapy, different forms of psychotherapy, psychosomatic medicine, the treatment of pain, and applications in medical and surgical procedures. The modern status of hypnotic techniques in obstetrics and in dentistry is reviewed, and a separate chapter on the use of hypnosis with children will be of special interest to educational and clinical psychologists. A final chapter reviews the use of hypnosis by various professions and para-medical disciplines, and discusses the possible abuses that may arise both through unqualified people seeking to practise "hypnotherapy", and by professionals acting outside their proper range of competence.
