This article explores the evolving landscape of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) delivery within cancer care, highlighting key innovations aimed at enhancing accessibility, engagement, and relevance for patients. Traditional delivery methods of MBSR face challenges related to mobility, geography, and time constraints, which can limit patient participation. In response, integrating digital platforms, such as online programs and mobile apps, has emerged as a crucial development, making mindfulness training more accessible to a wider audience of cancer patients. Exploration into varied group formats is another innovation reshaping MBSR delivery. By adjusting the scale and intimacy of group settings, these formats aim to provide tailored community support and individual attention, enriching the participant experience. Hybrid models that combine in-person and digital sessions are gaining traction, offering the flexibility to meet diverse patient needs and preferences. Additionally, the development of tailored MBSR programs designed specifically for different types of cancer, stages of disease, and treatment phases addresses the need for more personalized mindfulness training. These adaptations ensure that MBSR remains a relevant and powerful tool in the comprehensive care of cancer patients. The future of MBSR in cancer care is marked by significant innovation and expanded integration into standard oncology practices, promising to enhance the holistic well-being of patients through evidence-based, compassionate care. These advancements signal a shift towards more adaptable, patient-centered approaches to mindfulness training in oncology settings.

“…See Table 1. Primary researchers used 7 different depressive instruments including: (1) Beck Depression Inventory (BDI; s = 2), (2) Psychology Health Questionnaire (PHQ, s=1), (3) Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS; s =5) (4) Profile Mood States (POMS; s =1) (5) the Depression Anxiety and Stress Scales (DASS-21, s=3), (6) the Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression (CES-D, s=6), (7) Personality Assessment Inventory (PAI; s =1). Higher scores indicate higher levels of depression.…”

“…Mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) have been growing in popularity as a complementary therapy for symptom management among cancer survivors. [6][7][8][9] As such, there have been increasing efforts to study the effects of interventions incorporating mindfulness. Originating in the Buddhist tradition, the practice of mindfulness has been adapted as a complementary therapy in several patient populations.…”

Objective: We examined the effects of Mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) on depressive symptoms in women with breast cancer and examined the moderating effects of participant characteristics, research methodologies, and features of interventions. Methods: We systematically searched 12 databases through November 2022 without date restrictions using the following search terms: (mindful* or meditation) AND (cancer OR neoplasm) AND (depress*). Studies included were primary studies evaluating MBIs in women with breast cancer who also had depression. Studies were included if they used a control group and were written in English. We used a random-effects model to compute effect sizes (ESs) using Hedges’ g, forest plot, and Q and I2 statistics as measure of heterogeneity. We also requested moderator analyses. Results: We found 19 studies with 2139 participants (49.4 ± 8.3 years old) that met inclusion criteria for this meta-analysis and systematic review. Overall, women in MBI groups demonstrated significantly lower levels of depression ( g = 0.48, 95% CI:0.159, 0.792, P < .001) compared to women in control groups. Regarding moderators, providing MBIs with a home assignment component showed a significantly greater effect on decreasing depressive symptoms ( g = 1.75) compared to MBIs without a home assignment component ( g = 0.20). When researchers used concealed allocation technique, the interventions demonstrated lower effects on depression than when concealed allocation ( g = 0.11vs g = 1.33, P ≤ .001) was not reported. Additionally, when researchers reported high rates of sample attrition, they found a lower effect size on depression (β = −.019, Q = 3.97, P = .046) indicating that attrition moderates the effect. Conclusion: MBIs are moderately effective interventions to reduce depressive symptoms among women with breast cancer. Clinicians might consider encouraging MBIs as adjunct/alternative treatments for women with breast cancer to manage symptoms of depression. Interventions that incorporat home assignments for practicing mindfulness are likely to have a greater effect on reducing depressive symptoms. Additionally, methods including concealed allocation and attrition rate were moderators of the effects of MBIs on depression in women with breast cancer.

“…It can also improve the depressive symptoms of patients with different clinical diseases (such as cancer, maintenance hemodialysis, etc.) (Yang et al, 2020(Yang et al, , 2022. Meta-analysis has shown that the intervention effect of MBSR on depressive symptoms in patients with clinical diseases is better than that in non-clinical individuals (Zoogman et al, 2015).…”

Mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) is becoming more and more popular in treating depressive symptoms, but previous studies have come to different conclusions. This meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of MBSR in alleviating depressive symptoms. A systematic search was conducted across seven electronic databases: Scopus, Web of Science, Embase, the Cochrane Library, PubMed, PsycINFO, and Google Scholar. Meta-analytic methods were applied by using random-effect models. The quality was assessed with the Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions. Thirty-two randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and 37 independent effect sizes were eligible for the meta-analysis. The meta-analysis revealed that MBSR showed significant improvements on depressive symptoms compared to the control group, and the intervention effects were more significant for people with major depression disorder. However, neither cultural background nor sample origin had significant effects on the results of intervention. In addition, there was no publication bias in the meta-analysis, and the sensitivity analysis results indicated that the result was reliable. Findings suggests that MBSR can improve depressive symptoms, and future studies should consider the effects of different levels of depression to improve the intervention benefits of MBSR.
