dc.description.abstract | Handling anxiety can be done pharmacologically or non-pharmacologically. Several
non-pharmacological therapies that can be used to reduce anxiety levels include
relaxation therapy, sound therapy, and aromatherapy. Some examples of sound
therapy are classical music therapy and murottal Al-Qur'an. The Aim of this research
is to determine the effect of classical music therapy and Al-Qur'an murottal therapy
on the patient's anxiety level before tooth extraction by observing changes in blood
pressure before and after listening to classical music and Al-Qur'an murottal. This type
of research is quasi-experimental with a pretest-posttest design. The research sample
consisted of 30 patients with indications for tooth extraction divided into 2 groups: the
group that was given classical music therapy Sonata in D major for two pianos, and
the group that was given murottal therapy Al-Qur'an Al-Insyirah Surah and its
translation and then assessed blood pressure before and after giving classical music
therapy and murottal Al-Qur'an therapy. The distribution of patient anxiety which is
known through the MDAS-Modification questionnaire shows that anxiety is in the
moderate category. The Paired T-test results on blood pressure values of each pre and
post intervention treatment group showed a p-value for classical music systole was
0.132, classical music diastole was 0.148, Qur'an murottal systole was 0.000, and AlQur'an murottal diastolic was 0.000. The results of the Independent T-test on blood
pressure values between the two pre and post-intervention treatment groups were pvalue systole of classical music and murottal Al-Qur'an was 0.000, and diastolic
classical music and murottal Al-Qur'an was 0.000. The conclusion is listening to
classical music and murottal Al-Qur'an can reduce patients' anxiety before tooth
extraction. Murottal Al-Qur'an reduces patient anxiety before tooth extraction better
than classical music | en_US |
