ypnosis is a normal phenomenon where an attentive focal concentration using suggestion and imagination both coupled to a
relative suspension of peripheral awareness. Well-prepared children do respond well to hypnosis based on positive and dissociate
communication. It is a safe technique which reduces children pain scores and anxiety during preoperative preparation, induction of
anaesthesia and can ease postoperative care by reducing post-traumatic stress syndromes. Hypnosis can also be associated to sedation
for minor surgical procedures done under local or regional anaesthesia.
