Méditation de pleine conscience pour les patients en oncologie : adapter la pratique en temps de pandémie
Mindfulness Meditation for Oncology Patients: Adapting Practice in Times of Pandemic
Abstract
Meditation workshops were offered to patients, and we observed their feasibility during their oncology care. They were adapted to Covid-19: one session face-to-face, the second by videoconference. Data were analyzed retrospectively. A mixed analysis was carried out: the quantitative part evaluated the participation in the workshops, the characteristics of the patients, and the impact of the workshops. The qualitative part focused on the appropriation of this tool by the patients. Concerning feasibility, 66.7% of patients completed the program without differences between face-to-face and videoconference groups. We find an improvement in mindfulness skills, a decrease in anxiety and physical pain, and an increase in nausea. Meditation seems to be an interesting tool for patients during their oncology care, both face-to-face and videoconference.
Résumé
Des ateliers de méditation ont été proposés aux patients, nous en avons étudié la faisabilité pendant les soins oncologiques. Ils ont été adaptés du fait de la Covid-19 : une session a eu lieu en présentiel, la suivante en distanciel. Les données ont été analysées de manière rétrospective. Une analyse mixte a été menée : le volet quantitatif a évalué la participation aux ateliers, les caractéristiques des patients et l’impact des ateliers, le volet qualitatif s’est concentré sur l’appropriation de cet outil par les patients. Concernant la faisabilité, 66,7 % des patients ont terminé le programme, il n’y avait pas de différence dans la participation en présentiel et en distanciel. Nous retrouvons une amélioration des compétences de pleine conscience, une diminution de l’anxiété et des douleurs physiques, une aggravation des nausées. La méditation semble être un outil intéressant pour les patients pendant leurs soins en oncologie, en présentiel et en distanciel.
