ABSTRAK Kecemasan merupakan respons psikologis yang umum dialami oleh pasien kanker payudara selama menjalani kemoterapi, yang dapat berdampak negatif terhadap kualitas hidup dan keberhasilan terapi. Salah satu intervensi non-farmakologis yang dapat digunakan untuk mengurangi kecemasan adalah relaksasi autogenik. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi efektivitas relaksasi autogenik terhadap tingkat kecemasan pada pasien kanker payudara yang menjalani kemoterapi di Rumah Sakit Murni Teguh Medan. Penelitian ini menggunakan desain quasi eksperimen dengan pendekatan pretest-posttest control group. Jumlah sampel sebanyak 64 responden yang dibagi ke dalam dua kelompok, yaitu kelompok intervensi dan kelompok kontrol, masing-masing terdiri dari 32 orang. Intervensi relaksasi autogenik diberikan selama 15–20 menit selama tiga hari berturut-turut. Pengukuran kecemasan dilakukan dengan menggunakan kuesioner Zung Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (ZSAS). Hasil analisis menunjukkan adanya penurunan signifikan tingkat kecemasan pada kelompok intervensi dibandingkan kelompok kontrol. Hasil ini menunjukkan bahwa relaksasi autogenik efektif digunakan sebagai intervensi keperawatan mandiri dalam mengurangi kecemasan pasien kanker payudara yang menjalani kemoterapi.

One non-pharmacological intervention that can reduce anxiety is autogenic relaxation. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of autogenic relaxation on the anxiety levels of breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy at Murni Teguh Hospital Medan. A quasi-experimental design with a pretest-posttest control group approach was used. A total of 64 respondents were selected using purposive sampling and divided equally into intervention and control groups. The autogenic relaxation intervention was administered for 15–20 minutes over three consecutive days. Anxiety levels were measured using the Zung Self-Rating Anxiety Scale (ZSAS). The results showed a significant decrease in anxiety levels in the intervention group compared to the control group. These findings suggest that autogenic relaxation is effective as an independent nursing intervention to reduce anxiety in breast cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy.
