N2 - AbstractBackground: As cancer becomes an increasingly pressing public health issue, care strategies to address the wellbeing of patients must continue developing and improving. Clinical hypnosis has so far proven to be an effective tool in addressing both psychological and physical concerns. Method: Two authors then independently screened for title and abstract, as well as full text. If disagreements arose, the authors discussed the issue until they reached an agreement. Mean difference was calculated, as well as the corresponding 95% confidence interval.Results: Two studies were included after full-text screening (n=36 participants). A clinical hypnosis intervention showed decreased levels of both anxiety (MD= 7.19, 95%CI= 5.39 to 8.99, n= 36) and depression (MD= 7.39, 95%CI= 5.70, 9.09, n=36).Conclusion: In conclusion, hypnosis is found to be useful in reducing anxiety and depression among cancer patients.
