Summary

This study tests whether adding hypnosis to standard care helps control pain and anxiety during a knee lavage procedure for people with knee osteoarthritis. About 100 participants will be randomly assigned to receive either usual care alone or usual care plus hypnosis. The main goal is to see if hypnosis leads to lower pain scores during the procedure.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
hypnosis (Ericksonian method)
What this could lead to
If effective, hypnosis could become a standard, drug-free option to ease pain and anxiety during knee lavage procedures.
What could go wrong
This is a small, single-center trial. Hypnosis may not work for everyone, and results may not apply to other procedures or settings.
