NCT03453723

Brief Summary

The simplicity of the implementation and the effectiveness of hypno-analgesia (via the magic glove technique) has already been proven in some research work, during the installation of peripheral venous route. An unpublished preliminary study has shown that this method appears to be the most effective in preventing pain during pediatric propofol injection. The purpose is to compare the effectiveness of hypno-analgesia of the hand by the "magic glove technique" to lidocaine used in an extemporaneous mixture in the prevention of pain with injection of propofol during intravenous induction in children aged 7 to 14 years

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Pain Intensity Score: Cameron Type Scale

    The reactions of the child from the beginning of the injection are filmed by an outside observer. At the end of the 3 mg / kg, the observation is stopped. From a distance, a member of the Children's Hospital Pain Unit will blindly display, by viewing child-centered videos, a pain score, according to Cameron's score \[0 = No pain ( no reaction); 1 = slight pain (grimace); 2 = Moderate pain (grimaces + cries / moans); 3 = severe pain (crying / crying + hand removal).\]. A score greater than or equal to two represents a significant pain at induction.

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

extemporaneous mixture with lidocaine for propofol infusion

Drug: lidocaine

Interventions

Realization of the magic glove hypnosis technique by an expert physician trained in hypnosis, according to a classic discourse before : intravenous infusion with 1% propofol (3 mg/kg with 600 ml / h electric syringe pump). Use and dose in accordance with the SPC.
