Summary

Perioperative stress is associated with various influences before and after surgery. Instead of benzodiazepines, patients can be calmed by non-pharmacological methods. One of these is perioperative medical hypnosis, which has also other beneficial effects such as lower opioid consumption, better wound healing, shorter hospital stays.

Acupuncture is used for analgesia. Is is effective for preventing and treating nausea and vomiting.

Hypothesis of the study is that perioperative acupuncture reduces the consumption of analgesics and anaesthetics during surgery. The investigators will also study the impact of acupuncture on postoperative nausea and vomiting and analgesic consumption in the postoperative recovery unit and the occurrence of postoperative delirium.
