Abstract
With a growing acceptance of clinical hypnosis in medicine, new fields of application are being explored. Data from recent studies support the use of hypnosis for pain management during procedures, such as ablation of arrhythmias and implantation of subcutaneous implantable cardioverter defibrillators, management of preoperative anxiety and reduction of postoperative atrial fibrillation. The aim of this review article is to summarize the findings of investigations showing the application of hypnosis in the field of cardiac electrophysiology, to review the rationale for the efficacy of hypnosis in management of cardiac arrhythmias and to highlight possible future directions in clinical applications and scientific perspectives.
