“…In this study, increase in resilience independently significantly associated with decrease in diabetes distress after controlling other psychosocial factors. The result is consistent with a previous study involving renal transplant recipients (Tian et al 2016). Findings of Karlsen and Bru (2014) also indicated that social support was a weak predictor of diabetes distress in patients with T2DM.…”

“…Resilient people tend to use positive coping strategies to cope with negative emotional experiences and this may improve psychological adjustment when encountering chronic stressors (Simpson & Jones 2013). Cross-sectional studies have reported an association between high level of resilience and low level of psychological distress in patients with cancer and those who have received renal transplantation (Min et al 2013, Tian et al 2016. Accordingly, change in resilience may associate with change in diabetes distress in patients with T2DM.…”

“…On the other hand, transplant recipients with measures of higher resilience were associated with low psychological distress . Currently, pretransplant patients are screened for psychiatric and substance use disorders, and mental/behavioral health services may be offered based on this screening; however, those recipients with little to no psychopathology or impairment may not be offered any additional services.…”

Solid organ and stem cell transplant patients and their caregivers report a substantial level of distress. Mindfulness-based stress reduction has been shown to alleviate distress associated with transplant, but there is limited experience in this population with other mindfulness-based interventions, or with combined transplant patient and caregiver interventions. We evaluated a novel, 6-week mindfulness-based resilience training (MBRT) class for transplant patients and their caregivers that incorporates mindfulness practice, yoga, and neuroscience of stress and resilience. Thirty-one heart, liver, kidney/pancreas, and stem cell transplant patients and 18 caregivers at Mayo Clinic in Arizona participated. Measures of stress, resilience, depression, anxiety, health-related quality of life, positive and negative affect, and sleep were completed at baseline, 6 weeks, and 3 months postintervention. At 6 weeks and 3 months, patients demonstrated significant (P<.005) improvements from baseline in measures of perceived stress, depression, anxiety, and negative affect. Quality-of-life mental component (P=.006) and positive affect (P=.02) also improved at follow-up. Most participants adhered to the program, were satisfied with class length and frequency, and reported improved well-being as a result of the class. MBRT holds promise as an intervention to enhance resilience and manage stress for transplant patients and their caregivers.

Without a transplant, end-stage liver disease is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Transplant candidates endure physical and psychological stress while awaiting surgery, yet little is known about the relationship between physical health and psychological resilience during the wait-list period. This study examined predictors of psychological resilience and mediators of the relationship between physical health and psychological resilience in liver transplant candidates. Wait-listed candidates (N = 120) from a single Northeast transplant center completed assessments of physical functioning, coping, perceived social support, and resilience. Findings revealed that physical functioning, active coping, and perceived social support were positively associated with resilience; maladaptive coping was negatively associated with resilience. Perceived social support and active coping partially mediated the relationship between physical functioning and resilience. Transplant center care providers should promote active coping skills and reinforce the importance of effective social support networks. These interventions could increase psychological resilience among liver transplant candidates.
