The Effect of Autogenic Relaxation Technique Combined with Classical Music on Reducing Anxiety Levels in Preoperative Patients
Main Article Content
Abstract
Background: Data obtained from the World Health Organization (WHO) show that the number of patients undergoing surgical procedures has increased significantly from year to year. One of the non-pharmacological interventions to reduce anxiety is the autogenic relaxation technique combined with classical music therapy. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the autogenic relaxation technique combined with classical music on reducing anxiety levels in preoperative patients at Pelabuhan Hospital Palembang.
Methods: This study employed a pre-experimental design, namely a one-group pre-post test design. The population consisted of patients scheduled for surgery in February–March 2024, with a total of 35 respondents. Sampling was conducted using accidental sampling, resulting in 35 respondents. Data were collected using questionnaires. Data analysis was carried out using univariate and bivariate analysis with the paired sample t-test.
Results: Univariate analysis showed that the average anxiety level of respondents before the intervention was 21.80, and after being given the autogenic relaxation technique combined with classical music, the average score decreased to 17.51. The results of the paired sample t-test showed that there was a significant effect of the autogenic relaxation technique combined with classical music on reducing anxiety levels in preoperative patients at Pelabuhan Hospital Palembang in 2024 (p-value = 0.000).
Conclusion: It is expected that the hospital can implement non-pharmacological interventions such as the autogenic relaxation technique combined with classical music to support pharmacological treatment for anxiety, particularly in patients undergoing surgery, so that anxiety can be reduced optimally.
