What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Compare anxiety of patients undergoing for a preoperative breast marking under ultrasound according two different procedures (standard care versus standard care with conversational hypnosis)

    The anxiety level will be assessed in each group by a visual analog scale from 0 to 10.

    Measured: Day 1

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Compare the pain felt by patients during a preoperative breast marking under ultrasound according two different procedures (standard care versus standard care with conversational hypnosis)

    The pain level will be assessed in each group by a visual analog scale from 0 to 10.

    Measured: Day 1

  2. Compare the manipulator's satisfaction during a preoperative breast marking under ultrasound according two different procedures (standard care versus standard care with conversational hypnosis)

    The manipulator's satisfaction will be assessed in each group by a numeric scale from 0 to 10.

    Measured: Day 1

  3. Evaluate the receptivity of women to conversational hypnosis

    Measured: Day 1

  4. Assess the impact of conversational hypnosis on completion of the examination

    The assessment will be evaluated in each group by the radiologist according to a visual analog scale from 0 to 10.

    Measured: Day 1
