THE EFFECT OF PROGRESSIVE MUSCLE RELAXATION THERAPY IN REDUCING ANXIETY IN PREOPERATIVE MAXILLA TUMOR PATIENTS

Abstract

Maxillary tumors are new tissue growths that occur due to several factors, one of which is neoplasms involving tooth development tissue that occur in the maxillary sinus and tend to invade the tissue and metastasize to distant sites. The preoperative nursing diagnosis that is the main focus is anxiety. One of the non-pharmacological actions that can overcome anxiety problems is progressive muscle relaxation therapy with the aim of obtaining an overview of nursing care for preoperative patients in the implementation of Progressive Muscle Relaxation Therapy by reducing the patient's level of anxiety. This Scientific Writing Method uses a descriptive method. The results of the implementation of Progressive Muscle Relaxation Therapy are that it can reduce anxiety from moderate (3) to mild (2) anxiety in patients with Maxilla bone tumor preoperative. This shows that progressive muscle relaxation therapy can overcome anxiety problems in preoperative patients. It is hoped that the results of this case study can be applied and benefit the wider community and the development of science, especially nursing.
