Results of Plan to Prepare for Patients Receiving Anesthesia to Anxiety and Satisfaction for Kamalasai Hospital

Abstract

This study aimed to study the pattern of preparation for care of patients receiving anesthesia on anxiety and satisfaction. It was a quasi-experimental research with a two groups pre-post test design. The study was conducted during May 2024 - July 2024. The sample consisted of 52 pregnant women who underwent cesarean section and received anesthesia. They were divided into an experimental group of 26 and a control group of 26. The simple random sampling method was used. The experimental group received the pattern of preparation for care of patients undergoing surgery and receiving general anesthesia. The control group received normal preparation. The research instruments included the pattern of preparation for care of patients undergoing surgery and receiving anesthesia, an anxiety assessment form, and a satisfaction assessment form. Data were analyzed for mean, percentage, and standard deviation. The comparison of anxiety scores during confrontation and the mean satisfaction scores between groups was done using the Independent t-test and within groups using the Paired t-test. Results 1) The anxiety in the experimental group receiving the pattern of preparation program showed that the mean before the experiment was 49.31 and after the experiment was 33.85. When compared within the groups There was a statistically significant difference at the 0.05 level. 2) The anxiety in the control group was found to be the mean before the experiment equal to 45.69 and after the experiment equal to 41.20. When comparing within the groups, there was no difference. 3) Comparing the difference in anxiety between the experimental and control groups after the experiment, it was found that the mean anxiety was different at the 0.05 level of significance. 4) The mean satisfaction of the experimental group that received the preparation program after the experiment was equal to 80.10 and the mean satisfaction of the control group was equal to 60.29. When comparing between the groups, there was a statistically significant difference at the 0.05 level.

This study shows that this preparation program for patients receiving anesthesia can help reduce anxiety and create satisfaction in first-time pregnant women who came for a cesarean section and received anesthesia.
