Evaluation of a Cardiac Coherence Session to Reducing Patients' Anxiety During a MRI Examination
Evaluating the Contribution of a Cardiac Coherence Session to Reducing Patients' Anxiety During a Medical Magnetic Resonance Imaging Examination
About This Trial
The present project aims at conducting a proof of concept study to explore the pertinence of a single session of cardiac coherence, carried out in patients prior to an MRI examination and presenting anxiety in relation to this examination, to reduce their level of anxiety and thus improve the course of the examination.
