Comparison of Five-finger Relaxation Technique Therapy and Al Qur'an Murotal Therapy on Patient Anxiety Breast Cancer At Sayang Cianjur Hospital

Introduction: Breast cancer is the number one cause of death in women. Breast cancer patients will undergo various treatments such as chemotherapy, which will cause psychological problems in the form of anxiety. Excessive anxiety can have an impact on the healing process by reducing the effectiveness of the immune system and slowing recovery. It is very important to overcome anxiety through complementary therapy in the form of five-finger relaxation and Qur'anic murottal therapy. This study aims to determine the comparison of five-finger relaxation technique therapy and Qur'anic murottal therapy on the anxiety of breast cancer patients at Sayang Cianjur Hospital. Materials and methods: Quasi-experimental study with pretest and posttest control group design. The study population of breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy was 54 people who were divided into three groups, namely 18 respondents each using purposive sampling technique with inclusion criteria include Muslim patients, undergoing chemotherapy, willing to become respondents. While the exclusion criteria are patients with hearing loss, in unconscious condition, and patients with complications. The sampling technique was purposive sampling. Standardized instrument Zung Self-rating Anxiety Scale. Data analysis using paired sample t-test and analysis variance. Results: There is an effect of the five-finger relaxation technique, Qur'anic murottal, and control on anxiety reduction (p=0.000), and the results of analysis of variance show that the five-finger relaxation technique, Qur'anic murottal, and control using analysis of variance obtained a p-value of 0.013. Conclusion: There is an effect of the five-finger relaxation technique, Qur'anic murottal, and control on reducing anxiety in breast cancer patients.

Abstract

Introduction: Breast cancer is the number one cause of death in women. Breast cancer patients will undergo various treatments such as chemotherapy, which will cause psychological problems in the form of anxiety. Excessive anxiety can have an impact on the healing process by reducing the effectiveness of the immune system and slowing recovery. It is very important to overcome anxiety through complementary therapy in the form of five-finger relaxation and Qur'anic murottal therapy. This study aims to determine the comparison of five-finger relaxation technique therapy and Qur'anic murottal therapy on the anxiety of breast cancer patients at Sayang Cianjur Hospital. Materials and methods: Quasi-experimental study with pretest and posttest control group design. The study population of breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy was 54 people who were divided into three groups, namely 18 respondents each using purposive sampling technique with inclusion criteria include Muslim patients, undergoing chemotherapy, willing to become respondents. While the exclusion criteria are patients with hearing loss, in unconscious condition, and patients with complications. The sampling technique was purposive sampling. Standardized instrument Zung Self-rating Anxiety Scale. Data analysis using paired sample t-test and analysis variance. Results: There is an effect of the five-finger relaxation technique, Qur'anic murottal, and control on anxiety reduction (p=0.000), and the results of analysis of variance show that the five-finger relaxation technique, Qur'anic murottal, and control using analysis of variance obtained a p-value of 0.013. Conclusion: There is an effect of the five-finger relaxation technique, Qur'anic murottal, and control on reducing anxiety in breast cancer patients.
