BACKGROUND
Mindfulness meditation has gained momentum in medical circles for bolstering wellbeing and other facets of professionalism. This study evaluated the feasibility and benefits of a peer-led mindfulness meditation program (MMP) on medical student wellness and professionalism.
METHOD
Pre-clerkship students were recruited and randomized to the 8-week MMP or wait-list. Feasibility outcomes included ease of recruitment, program attendance and homework compliance. Other outcomes included self-reported psychological distress, empathy, self-compassion, mindfulness, altruism and program satisfaction.
RESULTS
The MMP decreased levels of stress and enhanced mindfulness, self-compassion and altruism from baseline to post-study. Changes were not significant for the wait-list condition. Although satisfaction with the MMP was high compliance was suboptimal.
CONCLUSIONS
A peer-led MMP is feasible and may be a promising approach to enhance medical student wellbeing. Further research is needed to explore strategies to improve program compliance in this student population.
背景
正念冥想在医学界因促进幸福感和职业素养的其他方面而受到越来越多的关注。本研究评估了由同伴主导的正念冥想项目（MMP）对医学生健康和职业素养的可行性及益处。
方法
招募临床前学生并将其随机分为8周的MMP组或等待名单组。可行性结果包括招募的难易程度、项目参与率和作业完成情况。其他结果包括自我报告的心理困扰、同理心、自我同情、正念、利他主义和项目满意度。
结果
从基线到研究结束，MMP降低了压力水平，提高了正念、自我同情和利他主义。等待名单组的变化不显著。尽管对MMP的满意度较高，但依从性不理想。
结论
由同伴主导的MMP是可行的，可能是提高医学生幸福感的一种有前景的方法。需要进一步研究探索提高该学生群体项目依从性的策略。
