Abstract

Shock therapy is one of the treatment methods for psychiatric patients, which is associated with a low risk and in financial terms it also benefits the patient and the health system. Mild Electroconvulsive device, which only affects the skin (and not the nervous system), operates on the basis of classical conditioning. EST device has some morphological features including the size and much weight that causes anxiety in the patient. It also has a mechanism that can be fed with 220V. Consequently, the concentration of physician is considerably reduced and also, it causes negative effects on the patient. In behavioral therapy, reducing the patient’s anxiety is a very important point that should be taken into consideration. Studying the effect of electroshock therapy on the cognitive state of patients hospitalized in the psychiatric ward showed that shortage and lack of knowledge cause fear and confusion and this, intensifies the cognitive effects that appear after the electroconvulsive therapy. Therefore, it is necessary for the nurses to provide their patients with appropriate and enough information before the implementation of this therapy. In this paper we offer a new device that consists of mild Electroconvulsive system, warning lights, warning voice, and small size and shape which has been designed on the basis of golden rate. Management system of the device is done via remote control and consequently, the patient doesn’t experience any anxiety in the course of treatment, rather it increases the performance of attending physician and facilitates the treatment.
