Nurse-led hypnosis to reduce opioid pain meds for breast surgery
Part of Cancer, Skin clinical trials.
This trial tests whether nurse-delivered hypnosis during breast cancer surgery can help you need less opioid pain medicine after surgery. It may make recovery more comfortable while aiming to lower opioid use.

This study tests whether a pain-control approach without opioids (strong pain medicines) can lower persistent pain after mastectomy. It may help people avoid long-term pain and opioid side effects.
This trial tests if combining an ultrasound-guided nerve block with a low-dose ketamine drip can reduce long-term pain after breast cancer surgery. It may help prevent chronic pain from developing.
This trial compares opioid-free anesthesia with opioid-based anesthesia during breast free-flap reconstruction surgery. It aims to see whether avoiding opioids can improve safety and comfort around the time of surgery.
This trial studies whether a pain-control technique called regional anesthesia during certain breast surgeries can lower chronic (long-lasting) pain after surgery. It may help improve comfort and quality of life for people at risk of ongoing pain after their breast operation.
This trial studies whether a hypnosis-based approach can help reduce a selected set of troubling symptoms in people who have finished treatment for certain early-stage (non-metastatic) cancers. It aims to understand which symptom patterns improve and how well the intervention works.
