ObjectiveTo explore the effects of "group + Dingding live" of mixed mindfulness-based stress reduction training on improving mental resilience and sleep quality of cancer patients.

MethodsForty-six cancer patients were randomly divided into the observation group and control group.The control group was nursed with conventional care, and the observation group was nursed with four-week of mindfulness decompression groups face-to-face training and four-week of Dingding live online nursing intervention.The intervention level of mindfulness before and after intervention, mental resilience and sleep quality were compared between two groups.

ResultsAfter intervention, the mindfulness score and mental resilience score in observation group were significantly higher than those before intervention, and the scores of mindfulness and mental resilience in observation group were significantly higher than those in control group(P < 0.01).After intervention, the total score of sleep quality and its factor scores(including the subjective sleep quality, sleep latency, sleep continuity, habitual sleep efficiency, use of sleep medicine and daytime dysfunction scores) in two groups decreased compared with before intervention, and the total score of sleep quality and its factor scores(including the subjective sleep quality, sleep latency, sleep continuity, habitual sleep efficiency, use of sleep medicine and daytime dysfunction scores) in observation group were lower than those in control group(P < 0.05 to P < 0.01).After intervention, the level of mindfulness was significantly positively correlated with mental resilience(P < 0.01), negatively correlated with sleep quality(P < 0.01), and the mental resilience was negatively correlated with sleep quality(P < 0.01).

ConclusionsThe mixed mindfulness stress reduction training can effectively improve the mental resilience and sleep quality of cancer patients.
