Abstract

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: group of inventions refers to clinical psychology, namely psychotherapy, and is applicable for prevention and predicted correction of psychosomatic disorders and conditions. It involves suggestive exposure on the patient's condition directed on formation of negative or positive memories, or positive intention in the patient. Psychophysical exposure on subconscious processes in the patient's mentality is ensured by stimulation of its visual perception canals to a visual imaginery consisting of at least four blocks of dynamic video images sequentially transmitted. Each block contains at least 5 film hosts of video images with each film host lasting for 8-12 s. The first, third and fourth blocks consist of rotating images of objects at rotary speed 30-60 degree/s having an externally closed round shape coloured against a dark background. Image elements in each host of the first block have alternating directions of rotation. The hosts of the second block contain the symbolic images providing subconscious exposure with enabled activation of the last patient's experience. The hosts of the third block contain the images elements of which rotates counter-clockwise, and of the fourth one - clockwise. The exposure to dynamic information blocks is controlled by blood pressure and pulse parameters with the process continued to normalise the patient's psychoemotional and psychosomatic condition. The declared method is implemented by means of a complex of visual correction of the patient's psychosomatic condition.

EFFECT: group of inventions enable more effective correction of the patient's psychosomatic condition ensured by implementing the directed exposure on the patient's subconscious processes.

Description

The group of inventions relates to the field of clinical psychology, namely psychotherapy, can be used for the prevention and predictable correction of psychosomatic disorders and conditions: mental hyper-excitability, unstable mental states, after a stressful event manifested at the level of the psyche in the form of panic attacks, phobias, fears , depression, anxiety, emotional decline, or vice versa overexcitation, at the level of physiology in the form of a hyperactive or vice versa inhibited nerve reaction system, high / low blood pressure, unstable heart rhythm, alone or in combination with other types of psychotherapeutic (including suggestive settings) or medication, in individual or group modes, both in inpatient and outpatient practice, in medical institutions a wide profile (psychiatric hospitals, neuropsychiatric dispensaries, psychotherapeutic rooms of somatic hospitals and clinics, in psychological rooms th discharge), for self-help.

The group of inventions can be used more widely, in any areas where it is necessary to maintain the psycho-emotional state of people in optimal condition, where there are activities associated with stress, extreme situations that require quick and adequate action, in other psycho-traumatic situations - operational services, veterans and combatants, operators of complex equipment or systems, drivers.

There are known methods of psychotherapy, which are based on the so-called "art therapy" or "art therapy" (Delfino-Bailey (Defino-Beighley S.)), which consists in healing the psyche of a sick person using passive and / or active perception of universally recognized instances human creativity, such as paintings by prominent artists, sculptures, architectural monuments, in a natural way or using technical means, such as cinema, television, photography, reproduction. This also includes literary works, poetry, and musical works. These methods of psychotherapy are developing in several directions. There are four main areas of art therapy or art therapy:

- the use in therapy of existing works of art through their analysis and interpretation by the patient (passive art therapy). It attracts musical and literary works, paintings;

- inducing patients to self-creation, while the creative act is considered as the main therapeutic / corrective factor (active art therapy);

- simultaneous use of the first and second principles;

- emphasizing the role of the psychotherapist himself, his relationship with the patient in the process of learning creativity.

The disadvantages of such methods of therapy include the lack of a special therapeutic agent in art therapy for the treatment and correction of psychosomatic disorders, created taking into account the level of psychosexual development and personality organization, taking into account the various symptoms of diseases of the psychosomatic series.

The concept of an audiovisual work is known as a work consisting of a fixed series of interconnected frames (with or without accompaniment of their sound), intended for visual and auditory perception using appropriate technical devices; Audiovisual works include cinematographic works and all works expressed by means similar to cinematographic (television and video films, filmstrips and slide films and the like), regardless of the way they are initially or subsequently recorded.

Known methods for visual correction of the psychosomatic state of the patient, which are based on suggestive action or hypnosis (Myshlyaev S.Yu. Hypnosis. - M .: Medical book. N. Novgorod. Publishing house of the NMF, 1999), which has a programming effect on the human psyche in a state of trance.

Currently, there are three main forms of hypnosis:

- Animal (body) hypnosis.

Animal hypnosis is currently of historical importance.

- Human (mental) hypnosis.

Human hypnosis (this is a form of control or a form of programming when one person acts on another) is used in medicine and in psychological practice. Exposure in the classical form is performed after the patient is introduced into a trance state.

- Public hypnosis.

In the authors' opinion, public hypnosis is a technology of mental influence that is based on a logical belief and is aimed at correcting an individual. A good example is education in kindergartens, schools, higher educational institutions, lectures, rallies, religious rites, weddings, funerals, birthdays, as well as movies, television, radio, newspapers, magazines, books, arts, such as theater, and others storage media (including electronic or analog).

We can talk about social hypnosis quite arbitrarily, since the implied technologies use only elements of hypnosis without introducing a person into a trance, for example, relaxation, concentration, suggestion and repeated repetition. The means for carrying out public hypnosis aimed at creating a certain motivation for the actions of viewers / listeners can be audio-visual works in the form of clips, commercials, slide films, television and video films that reproduce frames with audio and video images on the screen in a predetermined sequence. The main goal is to provoke a certain act or action (purchase of goods, services, voting for candidates in elections).

When implementing these technologies, issues of social adaptation, issues of treatment or correction are not raised.

Closest to the claimed group of technical solutions are the tool and method for the treatment of mental disorders (Patent RU No. 2289434, IPC: A61M 21/00) related to the field of medicine, namely to psychotherapy. As a tool for the treatment of mental disorders, an audiovisual work is used, which includes a set of frames with scenes-symbols of a negative behavior strategy, symbolically conveying the patient's experiences, his interpersonal relationships and his actual interpersonal conflict. The work also includes frames with scenes-symbols of a positive strategy of behavior, giving clues to get out of a crisis situation. During treatment, the patient is presented with an audiovisual work first with a set of symbols of a negative strategy of behavior: a symbol of past well-being, a symbol of impending crisis, a symbol of crisis, a symbol of a source of fear, a symbol of a resource for solving a problem, a symbol of destructive use of a resource, a symbol of personal psychophysical disaster, and then with a complex characters of a positive strategy of behavior: a symbol of past well-being, a symbol of an impending crisis, a symbol of a crisis, a symbol of a source of fear, a symbol of res X-ray diffraction to solve the problem, a symbol of a constructive use of the resource, prosperous future symbol, a new level of mental and physical comfort. As the source material for frames with scenes-symbols of strategies in this invention, shots from feature films of P. Jackson based on the novel by J.P. P. Tolkien “The Lord of the Rings. The Brotherhood of the Ring ”,“ Lord of the Rings. Two fortresses "," Lord of the rings. The Return of the King ”with an official translation, as well as the first two films with a playful translation. In total, 28 scenes-characters with audio and video images are made out of a number of named films.

The disadvantages of this prototype is that the use of recognizable fragments of famous films (The Lord of the Rings) in the framework of the psychotherapeutic task may in some cases have no practical therapeutic effect, and in the worst case, have the exact opposite of the expected effect , since initially the patient’s internal attitude to specific films as a work, to the characters of the paintings, the author, as well as the creative composition of the actors remains unclear. The patient may have a prejudice about these points, which can reduce the effectiveness of the effect of the drug itself or even cause unwanted reactions from the patient's psyche. In the claimed technical solution for the correction of the psychosomatic state of the patient, sample scenes are used that are not directly related to the human factor, namely abstract images that are close to ideal, created using graphical computer simulation. The invention under consideration has limitations associated with individual assessments of a potential patient of stimulus material, which may create additional difficulties when using the tool as a universal psychotherapeutic tool. Moreover, it is obvious that after a short number of sessions the patient can get used to the proposed symbol frames, a kind of psychological adaptation, in other words, the patient will simply remember the sequence of frames or their contents, which if the patient is not motivated properly or impossible detect the proposed image will not be able to cause the necessary therapeutic or corrective effect in the patient’s psyche.

The objective of the invention is to develop a method and means of psychocorrection of psychosomatic conditions of a person, characterized by versatility, ease of use and effectiveness of psychocorrectional effects, which minimizes the patient’s counteraction factor due to its subjectivity of assessments and specific reactions.

The technical result that can be obtained by implementing the group of inventions is to increase the efficiency of correction of the psychosomatic condition of the patient by implementing a directed effect on the patient's subconscious processes. Such an impact includes the activation of a patient’s negative past experience with its subsequent transformation to the level of a normal, non-traumatic psyche, memory; the image of the future event, which is desirable for the patient, under the influence of the proposed stimulus material makes this image more vivid, emotionally saturated; the positive effect of the stimulus effect is expressed in bringing the patient's blood pressure and heart rate to normal levels, in general improvement in well-being, and a decrease in the level of depression. At the physiological level, it is assumed that the patient optimally activates the left, right hemisphere of the brain, and then there is a stable synchronized work of both hemispheres at once. Due to the fact that the patterns of the negative past gradually cease to have a subconscious effect on the motives and actions of the patient, he becomes more active, cheerful, balanced, effective, choosing the best ways to solve possible problems in the future.

The problem is solved in that the method of visual correction of the psychosomatic state of the patient includes suggestive action on the patient, aimed at forming a negative or positive memory or positive intention in the patient, and then the psychophysical effect on the subconscious processes in the patient's psyche by stimulating his visual channels of perception with a visual series consisting of at least four blocks of dynamic video images broadcast sequentially, each 3 blocks includes at least 5 assembly frames of video images with a duration of each assembly frame of 8-12 s, while the first, third and fourth blocks consist of rotating images of objects with an angular speed of 30-60 deg / s, having an externally closed rounded the shape made in color and located on a dark background, while the image elements in each frame of the first block have alternating directions of rotation, the rotation of the elements is a rotation of up to 200 °, the frames of the second block contain symbolic images In order to influence the subconscious with the possibility of activating the patient’s past experience, the frames of the third block include images whose elements are made rotating counterclockwise, and of the fourth — clockwise, the blocks of dynamic information are controlled by parameters of blood pressure and heart rate, In this process, they lead to the normalization of the psychoemotional and psychosomatic state of the patient.

The problem is also solved by the fact that the means of visual correction of the psychosomatic state of the patient consists of at least four blocks of dynamic images, each of the blocks consists of at least 5 montage frames of video images with a duration of each montage frame of 8-12 s, the first, third and fourth blocks consist of rotating elements that make up the image, with an angular velocity of 30-60 deg / s, having an externally closed rounded shape, made in color and located on a dark background, with this image elements in each frame of the first block have alternating directions of rotation, the rotation of the elements is a rotation of up to 200 °, the frames of the second block contain images of a symbolic series, providing an impact on the subconscious with the possibility of activating the patient’s past experience, frames of the third block include images rotating counterclockwise, and the fourth - clockwise.

Thus, the above technical result in the implementation of the group of inventions on the object-method of visual correction of psychosomatic conditions, including psychophysical effects, is achieved by presenting to the patient a video consisting of blocks of video frames created and selected taking into account the maximum and phased psychophysical effects on subconscious processes in the patient’s psyche, designed for adult patients without abnormalities in the development of the psyche, without disturbances, without affecting their personality structure, allowing to use the tool regardless of the genre, ethical, taste and other preferences and subjective psychological settings of the patient, as well as outside the level of criticality on the part of the patient both to the tool itself and to the specialist conducting the psychocorrection.

The indicated result when implementing a group of inventions on an object - a device is achieved by the fact that the means for visual correction of psychosomatic conditions in the form of a special visual stimulus - a video clip - includes the following set of blocks of video frames mounted in a single video: the first block of dynamic frames - “trance" - is designed to bring the patient has a light trance state, providing further successful psychocorrectional work; the second block - “activating” - frames of dynamic images of a symbolic series - is designed to activate the whole complex of subconscious psychosomatic connections and reactions of both positive and negative modalities (depending on the tasks before the session and the preset given by the therapist); the third block - “neutralizing” - frames of dynamic images that have counter-clockwise elements, removes the excessive emotional significance of negative memories of the past, re-transforming them into insignificant or neutral memories; the fourth block - “fixing” - frames of dynamic images, the elements of which rotate in a clockwise direction, leads to consolidation of the achieved result, strengthening the manifestation of positive moments from the “unloading” of negative in the past. In case of setting to a positive attitude, in this block there is an increase in a positive mood, vitality is activated.

The blocks of frames are mounted in a single video clip, which may or may not have (depending on goals and objectives) additional audio accompaniment. The sequence of blocks of frames and the very content of frames allows you to get the optimal psychocorrection effect for most people, reduce the manifestation of factors of the psychosomatic series (normalize blood pressure, heart rate), and improve overall well-being.

The proposed group of inventions combines the possibilities of art therapy, as well as psychophysical effects in the form of activation of subconscious processes in the human psyche through stimulation of the visual channels of human perception with a visual stimulus, which is a special sequence of dynamic video images (corrective video), and the possibility of human (mental) hypnosis in the form preliminary program settings for the patient (depending on the necessary tasks of psychocorrection) through a light trance with patient condition.

The basic tool is a specially prepared and mounted video sequence consisting of specific dynamic 3D-video images following in a certain sequence (on the basis of blocks).

The fundamental difference between the group of inventions and the prototype under consideration is that the therapeutic, psychocorrection effect after watching the correction video is achieved without the use of previously broadcast, and therefore recognizable frames from works (feature films), which eliminates the undesirable effect of the patient's subjective assessments on the visual stimuli presented as a reaction recognizable footage.

The method of visual correction of psychosomatic consists of special effects on the patient in a certain sequence, while the effects are carried out, including and using an original tool - developed by computer 3D-modeling of animated frames of video graphics, mounted in blocks in a single video sequence. The frames are arranged in a strictly defined sequence that facilitates, even in the absence of a preliminary suggestive effect on the patient, his introduction into an easy controlled trance, in which the patient adequately responds to the commands and recommendations of the specialist conducting psychocorrection, and also does not lose the feeling of reality. The desired effect is achieved even without the use of an audio accompaniment channel. However, if necessary, music, narration, nature sounds, etc. can be placed on the audio track of the video. to enhance patient exposure or specific expected effect.

The present invention relates to a completely new direction in clinical psychology.

Based on official scientific data, as well as on the results of our own scientific research based on theories of psychophysical effects, functional asymmetry of the brain (including the theory of lateralization of certain types of mental processes and human mental activity), visual perception (including theory perception of color, form), visual perception of movement, the relationship of psycho-emotional states with physiology (psychosomatics), projection (a manifestation of the unconscious in human results activity), the authors developed a video sequence consisting of 3D graphics frames arranged in four specific psychocorrection blocks and arranged in a certain sequence. The video sequence exerts a psychophysical effect on the patient’s psyche (his subconscious) by visual stimulation of the human visual channels through triggering processes of extracting information (pattern) from the long-term memory into RAM, as well as symptoms associated with this manifestation of psychosomatic conditions, subconscious correction of the extracted information at a psychoemotional level by synchronized operation of both cerebral hemispheres, preservation of corrected information with updates psychoemotional data. The video series was created for use as an active visual stimulus, correcting the psychosomatic state of the patient, improving his overall psycho-emotional state, reducing the level of negative, traumatic memories impact on the patient's psyche, and increasing vitality while enhancing the effect of images from a positive future patient.

A detailed description of the method and technical means

The method of visual correction of the patient's psychosomatic conditions includes four main points:

- study and fixation of the patient’s psychosomatic state up to the moment of direct application of the visual correction tool for the psychosomatic conditions of a person, including visual observation of the patient’s external reactions (facial expressions, gestures, speech, breathing, eye movements, skin color, subjective complaints of the patient about pain or unusual sensations , fears, excitement, feelings of depression, agitation, etc.), as well as physiological parameters of the patient, such as blood pressure, including systolic heart rate (SYS, in mmHg), diastolic (DIA, in mmHg), heart rate in beats per minute, body temperature. Also, at this stage, the patient can be tested using a self-ranking questionnaire (assessment of well-being, activity, mood (SAN Questionnaire)); assessment of the level of depressiveness (Differential diagnosis of depressive states of V.A. Zhmurov) and the degree of perception of the traumatic situation or memory (“Questionnaire of brightness-clarity of ideas” by D. Marx or its modifications);

- preliminary verbal attitude to the patient, including suggestive, including self-determination of the patient, in a state of no trance or in a trance state that excludes inadequate mental states of the patient, as well as exposure to narcotic and psychotropic drugs and substances, designed to evoke the necessary memory, intent , an emotion of a negative or positive nature, depending on the assigned psychocorrectional task (in some cases, it is allowed to start using the technical medium Dstv without preliminary installation); preliminary statement of the problem to the patient - when activating a technical tool (psycho-corrective video), the patient should carefully look at the center of the screen / monitor (when using special video glasses, look at the image broadcast on their inner surface), tracking the proposed video images from the moment the broadcast starts to stop broadcasting;

- the beginning of the broadcast of a special psycho-correcting video with the video signal being sent to a computer monitor, a TV screen or a video goggle until the end of the broadcast;

- re-examination and fixing the psychosomatic state of the patient within the first 5-7 minutes immediately after applying the technical means of visual correction of the psychosomatic conditions of a person (viewing a psycho-corrective video), including visual observation of the patient's external reactions (facial expressions, gestures, speech, breathing, eye movements, complexion, subjective complaints of the patient about the presence of pain or unusual sensations, fears, excitement, feelings of depression, excitement, etc.), as well as physiological the patient’s clinical parameters, such as blood pressure, including systolic (SYS, in mmHg), diastolic (DIA, in mmHg), heart rate in beats per minute, body temperature. Also, at this stage, the patient can be tested using a self-ranking questionnaire (assessment of well-being, activity, mood (SAN Questionnaire)); assessment of the level of depressiveness (Differential diagnosis of depressive states of V.A. Zhmurov) and the degree of perception of the traumatic situation or memory (“Questionnaire of brightness-clarity of ideas” by D. Marx or its modifications). As an additional control of the effectiveness of the impact, it is possible to conduct an additional study and fixation of the patient's psychosomatic state as described above 30-40 minutes after the end of the session.

A special psychocorrection video should meet the following requirements:

- have a duration within 4 minutes;

- be repeatable;

- ease of perception, without complex visual images, according to the principle - one mounting frame - one self-sufficient action (for example, a star’s glow, rotation of figure elements, etc.);

- do not contain scenes from works (films, paintings), including images and images of real people, objects, landscapes;

- enter the patient into a controlled mild trance state with the cessation of this state after the end of viewing a special psychocorrective video;

- the psychocorrection video itself should not contain installations and programs for the human psyche, that is, it should not have a programming effect;

- do not contain scenes of violence, cruelty;

- the image must be made by computer 3D modeling technologies;

- the finished video allows support for playback technology with 3D quality (when using special devices such as 3D video glasses);

- It should consist of: at least four blocks of animated (dynamic) frames of computer 3D graphics, in each block at least 5 editing frames, with a duration of each editing frame of 8-12 s, representing dynamic full-color video images made in the center of the frame on a uniform static dark background.

In this case, as a mounting frame (installation plan), use a piece of film or a portion of a magnetic video tape, or a portion of digital video material that is an integral part of a movie (work) and contains a certain semantic segment (moment of action) (https://ru.wikipedia. org / wiki / Frame).

Each block has a certain place in the general video sequence, as well as a certain set of frames in content and purpose.

The list of blocks and their linear sequence in the video:

- first block: "trance";

- second block: “activating”;

- third block: “neutralizing”;

- fourth block: "fixing".

The purpose of the blocks in the video:

- “trance” block - removes psychological barriers between the patient and the process of exposure, and also removes increased excitability / activity, criticality of the individual, has a calming, trance effect, which tunes in the subsequent effect; the impact is on both hemispheres of the brain, their work is synchronized, which improves the exchange of information patterns between the hemispheres; the brain is tuned to internal work, entering a light trance state;

- “activating” block - helps to manifest, strengthen internal feelings, fears, worries about the past and the future, exacerbate the psychosomatic symptoms associated with characteristic, “resonant”, images of the symbolic series; the impact is more on the right hemisphere of the brain, operating with symbols, the expectation of negativity, negative patterns of past events;

- “neutralizing” block - reduces the level of anxiety, depression, brightness-clarity of negative ideas, allows you to remove the excess significance of negative memories or feelings; excess tension is removed in the right hemisphere of the brain due to partial re-transformation (reindexing) of patterns of negative information with distribution to the left hemisphere, which operates with more positive information (each event has its pros and cons);

- “fixing” block - consolidates the downward trend in the depressive state, increases the parameters of well-being, activity, mood, strengthens a positive attitude; the positive trend of the left hemisphere is enhanced by the fact that part of the positive emotions is also distributed in the right hemisphere, setting the person to a favorable vision of the situation in the future (which is the desired effect of psychocorrection), thereby reducing the manifestations of the psychosomatic order in the present.

The impact of this method is carried out under the independent control of the patient and / or the control of the attending physician / psychologist or psychotherapist, the parameters of the patient’s blood pressure and heart rate (as well as additional parameters such as, for example, heart attacks, pain), the process is conducted until the normalization of his psychoemotional state and the reduction / cessation of symptoms of the psychosomatic series.

Frames of the first block - “trance” - constitute dynamic video images, which are a stylized starfish, making repeating cycles of half-turns left and right with rotation of the figure elements by an angle of up to 200 °, the elements have an externally closed rounded shape, made in color in the center of the frame on a uniform black background, the assembly junction between the frames is an “influx” effect (the final part of the image of the previous editing frame gradually goes out with the smooth appearance of the initial image the subsequent editing frame), the effect speed is 1-2 s.

The frames of the second block - “activating” - constitute dynamic video images of a symbolic series, which are stylized flashes of light in the night sky; calm radiant radiance; high-speed passage in starry space; dark, funnel absorbing inward; approaching sun disc; eruption; flowing streams of water. Images are made in the center of the frame, in full color, on a black static background. The sequence of frames within a given block may vary. The block consists of up to 10 mounting frames. The editing junction between the frames is an “influx” effect (the final part of the image of the previous editing frame gradually fades with the smooth appearance of the initial image of the next editing frame), the effect speed is 1-2 s.

The frames of the third block - “neutralizing” - comprise dynamic video images, the elements of which rotate counterclockwise at an angular speed of 30-60 degrees / s, and represent full-color ornamental formations in the form of flowers and spirals with externally closed and rounded shapes in the center of the frame on a uniform black background. The editing junction between the frames is an “influx” effect (the final part of the image of the previous editing frame gradually fades with the smooth appearance of the initial image of the next editing frame), the effect speed is 1-2 s.

The frames of the fourth block - “fixing” - comprise dynamic video images, the elements of which rotate clockwise at an angular speed of 30-60 degrees / s, and represent full-color ornamental formations in the form of flowers and spirals with externally closed and rounded shapes in the center of the frame on a uniform black background. The editing junction between the frames is an “influx” effect (the final part of the image of the previous editing frame gradually fades with the smooth appearance of the initial image of the next editing frame), the effect speed is 1-2 s.

The predominant colors in all images in the blocks are the colors of red, blue and yellow spectra.

After the completion of the first block through the effect of "influx", the second block immediately begins, then through the effect of "influx" of the third block and finally through the effect of "influx" the fourth block. The effect of "influx" between the blocks is carried out in a similar way: the final part of the last mounting frame of the image in the previous block gradually fades with the smooth appearance of the initial image of the first mounting frame of the next block, the effect speed is 1-2 s.

The inventive method using the proposed means of psychocorrection has a prolonged cumulative effect.

The use of a group of inventions is expected in the following cases:

- after the patient’s direct contact with a stressful situation (extreme situations that threaten life or health — accidents, catastrophes, terrorist acts and unlawful acts, natural disasters, accidents, military operations, injuries) or adverse circumstances (for example, divorce, loss of breadwinner, loss of loved ones person, loss of work, disability, loss of business, loss of material values, etc.) in everyday life, in interpersonal relationships, in professional activities, in case of intrapersonal conflicts;

- after recollection of the fact or any particular moments of the traumatic situation or circumstances that took place in the patient’s past (flashbacks);

- after the occurrence of symptoms of a psychosomatic order (allergies, disturbances in blood pressure and heart rate, skin reactions, involuntary fever in the absence of infectious diseases, sudden tics, nervousness);

- in case of occurrence or exacerbation of diseases of a psychosomatic order;

- in cases of overt or covert patient depression, loss of strength, confidence in one’s future; negative attitude to the past; suicidal moods; increased irritability, excitability; sleep disturbances and the process of falling asleep;

- to improve the general well-being of the patient (for example, after an illness), raising vitality;

- to increase the effectiveness of psychotherapeutic, medical and other types of treatment;

- during psychological preparation for stressful situations (operations, quick response situations, exams, etc.);

- for targeted improvement of mental processes and brain activity, increase the physiological capabilities of the body, increase psychological stability; for the purposes of self-knowledge and self-improvement;

- it is allowed to use a combination of these cases.

The use of a group of inventions is possible in the following forms:

- collective impact on a compact group of patients with similar problems (10-15 people) under the supervision of a specialist;

- individual exposure to the patient under the supervision of a specialist;

- individual effects on the patient under the control of the patient (independent use);

- a combination of the listed forms is allowed.

The use of a group of inventions is possible in the following forms:

- with preliminary suggestive installation from the outside to the patient (that is, the installation of a specialist conducting psychocorrection);

- with a hidden suggestive installation in the process of psychocorrection for the patient (in cases, for example, additional use of the audio channel of the psychocorrection video or an external sound source; verbal settings are hidden against the background of musical or noise accompaniment; additional superimposition of effects of the 25th frame on the video sequence of the psychocorrection video);

- with an independent psychological installation of the patient;

- without installations and suggestive impact;

- a combination of the listed species is allowed.

Mode of application:

- courses;

- once according to the situation (depending on the general well-being of the patient and specific tasks);

- according to a special scheme (according to the individual recommendation of a specialist), including as an adjuvant for other methods of exposure or treatment.

Standard mode: courses from 10-14 days for 2-3 sessions per day up to 30 days. Repeatability of the courses: in 20-30 days until a stable positive result.

To increase the effectiveness of the impact during one session, a 2-, 3-fold viewing of a special psychocorrective video can be assigned.

The effect of using the group of inventions:

- increase indicators of well-being, activity, mood (SAN technique);

- decrease in the level of depression, anxiety, expectation of negative events;

- reduction of symptoms of the psychosomatic series: normalization of blood pressure, pulse, body temperature;

- increase the level of psychological comfort, tolerance, adequacy of assessments;

- a decrease in the level of irritability, fatigue;

- reduction of pain and discomfort in the body;

- a positive attitude towards the future;

- improving the patient's ability to communicate;

- cold-blooded and optimal assessment of the situation when making a decision;

- An accelerated exit from traumatic memories, as well as quick adaptation after a stressful situation;

- improving the digestibility of new material, improving memory;

- Improving adaptation to expected stressful situations;

- Improving the process of falling asleep and sleeping.

When implementing the claimed inventions, a patient with symptoms of a negative psychosomatic state (high / low blood pressure, rapid / weak pulse) or with diseases of the psychosomatic series (such as, for example, hypertension) at different stages of the disease is placed in front of a computer monitor or a TV screen paired with a video player (or with the output of a PC video card) so that the patient can see the broadcast image well, or special video glasses are put on the patient (for example, l Saibex 3D640 or equivalent) connected to a video source. The patient carefully looks at the visual stimulus presented to him - a special video, trying to look at the center of the screen / monitor. Physiological parameters, such as blood pressure and heart rate, are measured before watching the video and immediately after watching. The greatest psychocorrection effect can be achieved in approximately 30-40 minutes after watching the video. In one session, the video can be shown up to 3 times. During the day, up to 3 sessions of viewing the corrective video are possible. Psychocorrection is carried out by the patient either independently or under the guidance of a specialist until a steady improvement in the psychosomatic state. With the participation of a specialist psychologist or psychotherapist in the correction procedure, it is recommended that the patient be introduced into the subconscious with the help of suggestion of the necessary settings and action programs that improve his well-being and increase its effectiveness. To work out psycho-traumatic memories, the patient may be asked to recall this event before the start of the session, and then the video begins to be watched. At the end of the viewing, the patient may be asked to think about some pleasant and desirable moment (from his possible future), after which the psycho-correcting video is restarted. Before the viewing procedure and after the indicators of the patient’s blood pressure, his pulse, body temperature are recorded, they provide visual control of his well-being and external reactions, taking into account the subjective sensations of the patient.

The method and means of the present invention were tested on the basis of the professional pathology department of the clinic of professional pathology and hematology of the Saratov State Medical University in the summer of 2009. The study was conducted on 20 volunteer patients aged 58 to 73 years. All observed patients were prescribed a course of psychocorrection using the method and means of visual correction of psychosomatic conditions: viewing a psychocorrection video 1 time × 1 viewing a video per day × 14 days under the supervision of a specialist (according to a simplified scheme), with fixing the results before the session and after. Psychocorrection was carried out individually with each patient.

Example 1. Patient B. at the age of 62 years, hypertension 2 stages. Before viewing, a moderate level of depression, SYS pressure of 139 mm Hg, DIA 93 mm Hg was detected. After a single viewing with a positive installation, the patient's subjective well-being within 30 minutes improved, the SYS pressure was 130 mm Hg, DIA 84 mm Hg.
