Abstract

A placebo is used to fight pain, insomnia or anxiety. The placebo effect is said to be this one produced by this 'fake' medication. However, could it not chiefly be the effect produced by the trust relationship established between a patient and a caregiver at a given moment? This article reflects on the results of a survey carried out in the hospital sector.

Keywords: complaint; confiance; douleur; effet placebo; experiment; expérience; pain; placebo; placebo effect; plainte; trust.
