INTISARI
Latar belakang : Kecemasan adalah perasaan tidak nyaman atau ketakutan yang
tidak jelas dan gelisah disertai respon otonom. Kecemasan pra operasi adalah masalah
umum yang dialami pasien yang akan menjalani operasi. Prosedur pembedahan
terlepas dari kesulitan intervensi dapat menyebabkan ketakutan bagi pasien. Sebagian
ketakutan utama adalah menjadi tidak sadar, operasi itu sendiri dan rasa sakit saat
pulih dari anestesi. Salah satu faktor yang dapat mengurangi kecemasan pre operasi
adalah dengan pemberian aromaterapi lavender. Minyak lavender mempunyai banyak
potensi karena memiliki beberapa kandungan seperti monoterpenehidrokarbon,
camphene, limonene, geraniol lavandulol, nerol dan sebagian besar mengandung
linalool dan linalool asetat dengan jumlah sekitar 30-60% dari total berat minyak,
dimana linalool adalah kandungan aktif utama sebagai relaksasi untuk mengurangi
kecemasan.
Tujuan : Diketahuinya pengaruh pemberian aromaterapi lavender terhadap
kecemasan pada pasien pre operasi dengan general anestesi.
Metode : Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kuantitatif dengan desain pre
eksperimental dan rancangan one group pretest and posttest design, dilakukan di RS
PKU Muhammadiyah Yogyakarta. Sampel terdiri dari 35 pasien yang diberi
aromaterapi lavender dipilih menggunakan teknik consecutive sampling.
Pengumpulan data menggunakan kuesioner The Amsterdam Preoperative Anxiety
and Information Scale (APAIS), dengan analisis uji wilcoxon.
Hasil : Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terdapat perbedaan rata-rata kecemasan
sebelum dan sesudah pemberian aromaterapi lavender p value = 0,000(< 0,05),
dengan demikian aromaterapi lavender berpengaruh menurunkan kecemasan pada
pasien pre operasi dengan general anestesi.
