The effect of progressive muscle relaxation (PMR) therapy on the anxiety levels of type 2 diabetes mellitus patients at Universitas Sebelas Maret Hospital
Abstract
Introduction: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is one of the most common chronic metabolic diseases. Diabetic patients suffer from anxiety almost twice as much as the general population. Progressive Muscle Relaxation (PMR) is a systematic technique that can be used to achieve a state of deep relaxation.
Objective: To determine the effect of PMR therapy on the anxiety levels of type 2 diabetes mellitus patients at Universitas Sebelas Maret Hospital.
Methods: A quasi-experimental group design study was conducted at the Internal Medicine Outpatient Clinic at Universitas Sebelas Maret Hospital in April 2022–May 2022. This study used a purposive sampling technique with a total sample of 19 subjects in the intervention group and 19 subjects in the control group. The instrument used to assess anxiety is the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HARS). The intervention uses PMR videos, which were carried out at least twice per week for a month.
Results: The parametric test showed a significant effect of PMR therapy on the anxiety levels of type 2 diabetes mellitus patients (Z = -3.675; p value (Asymp. sig. 2-tailed) = 0.001).
Conclusion: There was an effect of PMR on anxiety, and the intervention group experienced more reduction in anxiety levels than the control group in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients at Universitas Sebelas Maret Hospital.
