Abstract

Resume Plusieurs etudes ont montre l’efficacite de l’utilisation de la mindfulness based cognitive therapy (MBCT) dans la prevention des rechutes depressives chez le patient non bipolaire (Segal et al. [2001]), puis d’autres travaux ont explore les effets de cette approche sur les ruminations du sujet depressif (Teasdale [2000] ; Watkins, Teasdale, 2001). Cette etude pilote est la premiere qui inclut exclusivement des patients bipolaires I repartis en trois groupes qui ont beneficie du programme MBCT en huit seances. Tous ces patients avaient suivi au prealable le programme de therapie comportementale et cognitive (TCC) de groupe pour bipolaires (modele de Lam). Cette etude clinique et psychologique montre la faisabilite du programme, sa bonne acceptation par les sujets, avec une tendance a l’augmentation de la capacite de pleine conscience relative a l’assiduite de la demarche.
