DEFINITION OF PAIN
Pain is an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with actual or potential tissue damage or described in terms of such pain.

• Taken together, the convergence of neuroimaging findings on pain processing is remarkable, given the diversity of experimental noxious stimulation and experimental conditions used in these studies, and despite minor discrepancies.!!• This combined evidence suggests that the concurrent activation of this network of brain structures constitutes the Signature of Pain in the brain, and may reflect the multidimensional complexity of the subjective experience of pain. !

HYPNOSIS Growing Evidence and Clinical Impact More than 150 papers on hypnosis published yearly in peered scientific journals (Larkin, 1999; De Benedittis, 2004). ! The American Medical Association (AMA) and other medical institutions formally recognize hypnosis as a viable and effective tool for medical treatment. ! Since 1994, IASP (International Association for the Study of Pain) has included hypnosis in the Core Curriculum for professional training of pain therapists. !

• Meta-analysis of 18 RCT studies (n= 933)
• Substantial pain relief in 75% of the population
• Positive correlation with hypnotic susceptibility
• Hypnotically-suggested pain reduction can be classified as “well-established treatment”.

• Meta-analysis of 20 RCT studies (n= 1624)
• Better outcomes than 89% of patients in control groups.
• Patients in hypnosis group reported significantly more satisfaction than those in control groups.

• Meta-analysis of 5 RCT studies (n= 224)
• Fewer parturients having hypnosis required analgesia as compared with controls.
• Women using hypnosis rated their labour pain less severe than controls (<.01).
• Hypnosis reduced opioid (meperidine) requirements and increased the incidence of not requiring pharmacological analgesia in labour (<.001).

Slide 34
It involves both sensory pain and distress, the latter being reduced significantly more than pain. (De Benedittis et al., 1989; Hilgard & Hilgard, 1994)!
The dissociative effect seems positively correlated with hypnotic susceptibility. (De Benedittis et al., 1989; Dahlgren et al., 1995; Rainville et al., 2000)!
The differential modulation of components of pain is dependent upon the structure of hypnotic suggestions. (Barabasz et al., 1999; Rainville et al., 1999; Faymonville et al., 2000)!!
CHARACTERISTICS OF HYPNOTIC ANALGESIA
![Page 35: Challenge of Pain - Emergences · THE CHALLENGE OF PAIN : CAN THE HYPNOTIC BRAIN CONTROL YOUR PAIN ? GIUSEPPE DE BENEDITTIS Interdepartmental Center for Pain Research & Treatment](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022022610/5b97083809d3f2501c8be97d/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Slide 35
Highly Hypnotizables demonstrate greater cognitive flexibility than Lows, as they possess stronger filter abilities. (Crawford & Gruzelier, 1992; Crawford, 1994)!
These attentional skills seem to be associated with inhibitory functions of the frontal lobe and limbic system. (Crawford, 1994; 1998)!
Consequently, hypnotic analgesia can be seen as an active process of enhanced attention/disattention that requires an inhibitory effort, dissociated from conscious awareness, where the far frontal cortex participates as a Supervisory Attentional System (SAS). (Shallice, 1988; Crawford, 1994) !

Hypnotic analgesia is not dependent upon opioid and ACTH modulation. (De Benedittis et al., 1989) ! Highly hypnotizable subjects are associated with high levels of CSF HVA (Vanilmandelic Acid), major catabolite of dopamine (Spiegel & King, 1992) and of COMT (Co-Methyl-Transferase), enzyme involved in dopamine metabolism (Lichtenberg et al., 2004). Dopamine is the neurotransmitter more involved in attentional mechanisms. !

HYPNOTIC ANALGESIA : WHERE ARE WE NOW ?
Taken together, the degree of consistency across all these studies is remarkable. ! This combined evidence suggests that the concurrent activation of this network of central and peripheral neural structures might constitute the NEUROSIGNATURE of Hypnotic Analgesia.! However, the dynamics of these complex, functional patterns need to be further elucidated.

A COPERNICAN REVOLUTION ?
Hypnosis is no longer a disputed and controversial issue for the scientific community.! Hypnosis has not only been established as a viable, valid and reliable intervention for controlling both acute and chronic pain, but it has been eventually recognized as a real psychobiological state and process that deserves increased scientific interest and attention.!
Mostly important, neuroscience research has beginning to consider and use hypnosis as a physiologically effective tool for studying the normal, human brain. !!
