Patient Requiring Scheduled Conventional Orthopedic Surgical Intervention of the Upper or Lower Limb
Conditions
Brief summary
The need for a surgical procedure may cause a patient to experience reactive anxiety. This reaction is appropriate if it is of low to moderate intensity. On the other hand, various studies have shown that postoperative awakening is more complicated if the patient experiences major preoperative anxiety. Thus, reducing anxiety could be a tool for preventing chronic pain. For several years now, the investigator's facility has been implementing Energy Resonance through Cutaneous Stimulation (ERCS), a method based on listening to the body's vibrations through the fingers on points based on the mapping of meridians in Chinese medicine. ERCS practitioners have noted the benefits of this method, particularly in soothing patients. It therefore seems necessary to detect and manage this anxiety beforehand and ERCS seems appropriate in this situation.
Interventions
OTHEREnergy Resonance through Cutaneous Stimulation
The ERCS method involves listening to the body by applying fingers to the acupuncture skin points, developed according to the energy imbalance caused by illness, pain and emotional disorders.
