About this study

Official title: Evaluation of the Benefit Provided by Sessions of Sophrology on the Intraoperative Management of Parkinsonian Patients in the Context of Deep Brain Stimulation Surgery.

Deep brain stimulation surgery, which consists of intracerebral implantation of electrodes, is considered one of the most effective techniques for controlling the motor fluctuations of Parkinson's disease. The particularity of this surgery is the necessity of the awakening of the patient for the correct positioning of the electrodes, it is therefore a difficult test for the patient.

Medical sophrology is an ideal strategy to optimize the comfort of the patient during the operation thanks to its anxiolytic and analgesic virtues while guaranteeing the maintenance of a good patient vigilance favoring the cooperation with the operating room team. Indeed, sophrology is a body-mediated set of techniques, at the crossroads between hypnosis and yoga, which makes it possible to find a balance between emotions, thoughts and behaviors. It has already been applied in other fields such as oncology, pain management, preparation for childbirth, and for 5 years at the CHU of Rennes for preparation for the intervention of deep brain stimulation.

What is being measured

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

  1. Patient anxiety

    patient anxiety evaluated by the STAI-YA (State Trait Anxiety Inventory), retranscribed by a caregiver of the block, the patient being unable in practice to fill in a questionnaire at that time

    Measured: at one hour after the beginning of the intervention

Secondary outcomes (16)
  1. Per operative pain

    Per operative pain judged by a visual scale analogous

    Measured: intraoperative (at the beginning of the intervention)

  2. Per operative pain

    Per operative pain judged by a visual scale analogous

    Measured: at one hour after the begginnig of the intervention

  3. Per operative pain

    Per operative pain judged by a visual scale analogous

    Measured: Intraoperative (At the end of the first electrode placement)

  4. Evaluation of the anxiety

    Evaluation of the anxiety measured by the STAI YA

    Measured: At one hour before the procedure

  5. Evaluation of the anxiety

    Evaluation of the anxiety measured by the STAI YA

    Measured: Intraoperative (At the end of the first electrode placement)

  6. Interaction between the patient and the surgical team during the procedure

    interaction is judged by a visual analogue scale to be completed by the neurologist and the neurosurgeon

    Measured: At Day 0

  7. The duration of the intervention in minutes

    The duration of the intervention in minutes

    Measured: intraoperative

  8. Heart rate

    Heart rate in beat per minute

    Measured: At one hour after the beginning of the intervention

  9. Blood pressure

    Blood pressure in mmHg

    Measured: At one hour after the beginning of the intervention

  10. Experience of the surgical intervention

    experience of the surgical intervention by the patient evaluated on a visual analog scale

    Measured: At 24 hours after surgery

  11. Experience of the surgical intervention

    experience of the surgical intervention by the patient evaluated on a visual analog scale

    Measured: one week after surgery

  12. Experience of the perioperative period by the patient

    Qualitative analysis

    Measured: one week after surgery

  13. Occurrence adverse event

    Occurrence of hematoma

    Measured: Through study completion (Day 0 to Week 1)

  14. Occurrence adverse event

    Occurrence of infection

    Measured: Through study completion (Day 0 to Week 1)

  15. Occurrence adverse event

    Occurrence of dysfunction of material

    Measured: Through study completion (Day 0 to Week 1)

  16. Inter-group comparison of the evolution of anxiety

    Inter-group comparison of the evolution of anxiety by the STAI-YA

    Measured: between the inclusion (Month -3) and the beginning of the intervention (Hour O)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing sessions of sophrology in people with Parkinson Disease and Deep Brain Stimulation, run by Rennes University Hospital at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Feb 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: insufficient recruitment rate). Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Patient anxiety (time frame: at one hour after the beginning of the intervention). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Feb 2023.
