Anxiety is a common psychological response experienced by patients in the preoperative phase, especially those undergoing surgery under general anesthesia. Efforts to reduce anxiety can be done through non-pharmacological approaches, including guided imagery. This study aimed to determine the effect of guided imagery on reducing anxiety in preoperative patients undergoing general anesthesia at Bekasi Regency Hospital. The study employed a quantitative method with a pre-experimental design using a one-group pretest–posttest design. A total of 47 respondents were selected using a purposive sampling technique. The Amsterdam Preoperative Anxiety and Information Scale (APAIS) was used to evaluate respondents anxiety levels before and after the intervention. The guided imagery lasted for 10 minutes. Data evaluation included univariate and bivariate analyses, with the nonparametric Wilcoxon test used to test hypotheses. The study demonstrated a decrease in preoperative anxiety levels in patients after receiving guided imagery intervention. Based on the Wilcoxon test results, a p-value of 0.000 indicated that the intervention significantly reduced patient anxiety.

The results of this study indicate that guided imagery intervention has a significant effect on reducing anxiety levels in pre-operative patients with general anesthesia techniques.However, after the intervention, the majority (66.Statistical analysis showed a significant p-value of 0.000, indicating that guided imagery effectively reduced anxiety in pre-operative patients.

To further enhance the effectiveness of guided imagery in reducing pre-operative anxiety, future research could explore the following directions: First, incorporating guided imagery as an integral part of pre-operative nursing care in hospitals. By including this technique in the Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) of the Surgical Installation Unit, it can help reduce patient anxiety and improve overall healthcare quality. Second, for future researchers, it is suggested to employ more diverse research designs, such as using control groups, increasing the number of respondents, and incorporating other variables related to patients physiological and psychological responses. These efforts can strengthen the scientific evidence of guided imagerys effectiveness in reducing anxiety.
