Implementasi Terapi Zikir untuk Menurunkan Tingkat Kecemasan pada Pasien Preoperasi dengan Anestesi Spinal

Andika Juwita Plorentina — 2026-07-17

Latar belakang: Kecemasan merupakan respon psikologis yang sering dialami pasien sebelum menjalani tindakan operasi. Kecemasan dapat muncul akibat kurangnya informasi mengenai prosedur pembedahan maupun tindakan anestesi yang akan dilakukan. Jika kecemasan tidak ditangani dengan baik, kondisi ini dapat mempengaruhi kesiapan pasien sebelum operasi. Salah satu upaya nonfarmakologis yang dapat dilakukan untuk menurunkan kecemasan adalah terapi dzikir. Terapi dzikir merupakan intervensi spiritual yang dilakukan dengan mengucapkan kalimat-kalimat dzikir secara berulang sehingga dapat memberikan ketenangan dan membantu pasien lebih rileks sebelum tindakan operasi. Metode dalam kegiatan Pengabdian kepada Masyarakat (PkM) ini yaitu mengukur tingkat kecemasan pasien pre operasi dengan menggunakan instrumen Amsterdam Preoperative Anxiety and Information Scale (APAIS) sebelum dan sesudah diberikan implementasi terapi dzikir. Kegiatan dilaksanakan pada tanggal 30 September sampai 31 Oktober 2025 dengan jumlah peserta sebanyak 30 pasien pre operasi dengan spinal anestesi di RSI Fatimah Cilacap. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa tingkat kecemasan sebelum implementasi terapi dzikir sebagian besar berada pada kategori cemas berat sebesar (73,3%) dan cemas sangat berat/panik sebesar (26,7%). Setelah diberikan terapi dzikir terjadi penurunan tingkat kecemasan dimana kategori cemas ringan sebesar (63,3%) dan cemas sedang sebesar (36,7%), serta tidak ditemukan lagi pasien dengan kecemasan berat maupun panik. Hal ini menunjukkan bahwa implementasi terapi dzikir mampu menurunkan tingkat kecemasan pada pasien pre operasi dengan spinal anestesi. Luaran dari kegiatan Pengabdian kepada Masyarakat ini berupa publikasi jurnal ilmiah.

Zafhira Araza — 2026-07-29

Introduction: Surgical procedures performed under general anesthesia commonly cause preoperative anxiety in patients. Uncontrolled anxiety may interfere with patient readiness, affect physiological stability, and potentially delay surgery. Therefore, a complementary non-pharmacological intervention is needed, one of which is spiritual therapy through prayer.

Objective: The purpose of this service was to provide spiritual comfort and reduce preoperative anxiety in patients undergoing general anesthesia through the implementation of prayer therapy.

Method: This public service was conducted by implementing guided prayer therapy consisting of istighfar, remembrance (dzikir), and a tawakal prayer for approximately 5–10 minutes before surgery. The activity was carried out at RSUD dr. R. Goeteng Taroenadibrata Purbalingga involving 30 Muslim patients scheduled for surgery under general anesthesia. Anxiety levels were measured using the Amsterdam Preoperative Anxiety and Information Scale (APAIS) before and after the intervention.

Result: Prior to the intervention, most patients experienced moderate anxiety (56.7%) and severe anxiety (40.0%). After prayer therapy, anxiety levels decreased with the majority categorized as mild anxiety (80.0%), some moderate anxiety (16.7%), and a small proportion without anxiety (3.3%). Patients also appeared calmer, more cooperative, and mentally better prepared to undergo surgery.

Conclusion: Prayer therapy is effective as a non-pharmacological intervention to reduce preoperative anxiety in patients receiving general anesthesia and has the potential to be implemented as a complementary spiritual care approach in perioperative services.
