Abstracts of 2021 poster session from the American Society of Clinical Hypnosis 2021 annual meeting

Abstract

In an ongoing effort to create a culture of research within the American Society of Clinical Hypnosis (ASCH), the Society has encouraged the development of an active Poster Session at the Annual Scientific Meeting and Workshops. In support of this, arrangements were made with the American Journal of Clinical Hypnosis to publish the abstracts from the Posters, which were selected for presentation at the 63 rd Annual Meeting and Workshops. This was a fully on-line event due to COVID-19. Following a Call for Posters, a committee comprised of Eric Willmarth, Ph.D., Louis Damis, Ph.D. and David Reid, Psy.D. selected the Posters to be displayed on the ASCH Website both during and after the Scientific Meeting and Workshops. Presented here are the Titles, Authors, and Abstracts from the selected Posters. active body movement, with eyes open. It has been demonstrated and verified that suggest-ibility within AAH is comparable to that achieved by TH. Certain advantages of AAH are explored, as well as cautions. Educational objectives can be categorized by their domain of learning. These domains include affective, cognitive, and psychomotor. This work examines what percentage of the current Standards of Training in Clinical Hypnosis (SOTCH) used by the American Society of Clinical Hypnosis (ASCH) belongs to each of these three categories. The utility of such an examination is to aid and inform future curricular revision. The findings of this work are that the current curriculum strongly favors the cognitive domain, utilizes the psychomotor domain, and all but ignores the affective domain. The review of the literature was conducted in order to investigate the use of hypnosis as an intervention in treating health care professionals experiencing burnout syndrome or symp-toms of burnout from exposure to different elements in their work duties, the population they are serving or the environment in which they are conducting their work. A limited body of literature investigates hypnosis as an effective treatment for burnout. Caregivers are particularly at risk of compassion fatigue and burnout. Hypnosis with its emphasis on mobilizing positive resources and positive psychology is helpful at different levels of intervention. A review of existing literature was undertaken in order to evaluate the efficacy of hypnotic intervention on patients with chronic migraine headaches. While somewhat limited, several recent research studies have revealed a consensus on the improvement of head pain after several sessions of hypnosis, including both case studies and larger group studies. This Almost one fifth of women in the United States suffer from pelvic pain and urinary incon-tinence following childbirth (Leijonhufvud 2011). Surgery and medications are typically the go-to treatments prescribed by medical professionals. Unfortunately, these approaches struggle with positive outcomes in the long-term. Hypnosis is a mind-body modality that has been used as an intervention to address many behavioral/psychosomatic concerns. This poster addresses hypnosis as an intervention to treat Pelvic Floor Dysfunction as it relates to pain. Specifically, pelvic floor dysfunction due to pregnancy will be addressed. This poster reviews the literature on hypnosis and its utility in substance use disorders. Substance use disorders are rampant in the United States have resulted in over 67,300 deaths in 2018, which is an increase from 38,329 in 2010 Institute on Drug Use, Research-based substance use treatment modalities frequently utilized are behavioral therapies and motivational interviewing. Hypnosis is not a common intervention and has a paucity of articles supporting it as an evidence-based modality in substance use treatment. chiropractic within-scope Hypometabolism elicited by altered states of consciousness, including meditation and hypnosis span a spectrum extending from meditation to cryptobiosis including zombification. Dose-response spectral model has been formulated and its core hypothesis, which is as follows will be tested by a series of experiments: The physiological effects of altered states when combined due to meditation, hypnosis, flotation restrictive environmental techni-ques, and cryprobiosis or zombification will elicit a synergistic physiological outcome or mind body therapeutic synergism, measured by cerebral glucose metabolic rate, hepatic glucose metabolic rate, cardiac glucose metabolic rate, and DNA microarray of transcrip-tomic activity of peripheral blood cells. The hybrid medical imaging instrumentation consisting of magnetic resonance scanning and positron emission trans-axial tomography will be used to fluorine 18-glucose as the tracer for glucose metabolism. A feasibility analysis indicated a 93% rating for the investigation.
