Kecemasan praoperasi merupakan respons psikologis yang sering dialami pasien sebelum menjalani tindakan pembedahan dan dapat berdampak pada kondisi fisiologis, kesiapan pasien, serta proses pemulihan pascaoperasi. Perawat memiliki peran penting dalam memberikan edukasi keperawatan praoperasi sebagai upaya menurunkan tingkat kecemasan pasien. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui gambaran tingkat kecemasan pasien praoperasi sebelum dan sesudah diberikan edukasi keperawatan praoperasi serta menganalisis efektivitas edukasi keperawatan praoperasi terhadap penurunan tingkat kecemasan pasien berdasarkan studi literatur. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode studi literatur dengan pendekatan scoping review melalui pencarian artikel pada basis data PubMed dan Google Scholar dengan rentang tahun publikasi 20212025. Kata kunci yang digunakan meliputi preoperative nursing education, preoperative anxiety, edukasi keperawatan praoperasi, dan kecemasan praoperasi. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahwa sebagian besar pasien mengalami kecemasan sedang hingga berat sebelum diberikan edukasi keperawatan praoperasi dan mengalami penurunan tingkat kecemasan yang signifikan setelah intervensi edukasi. Berbagai bentuk edukasi, baik verbal, audiovisual, maupun edukasi terstruktur, terbukti efektif dalam menurunkan kecemasan pasien praoperasi, dengan edukasi audiovisual dan edukasi terstruktur menunjukkan hasil yang lebih optimal. Dapat disimpulkan bahwa edukasi keperawatan praoperasi efektif dalam menurunkan tingkat kecemasan pasien sebelum pembedahan sehingga perlu diintegrasikan secara sistematis dalam asuhan keperawatan perioperatif.

Preoperative anxiety is a common psychological response experienced by patients prior to undergoing surgical procedures and may negatively affect physiological conditions, patient readiness, and postoperative recovery. Nurses play a crucial role in providing preoperative nursing education as an effort to reduce patient anxiety. This study aimed to describe the level of preoperative anxiety before and after the provision of preoperative nursing education and to analyze the effectiveness of preoperative nursing education in reducing preoperative anxiety based on a literature study. This research employed a literature review method using a scoping review approach by searching articles from PubMed and Google Scholar databases published between 2021 and 2025. The keywords used included preoperative nursing education, preoperative anxiety, nursing education, and surgical patients. The results of the literature review indicated that most patients experienced moderate to severe anxiety prior to receiving preoperative nursing education and showed a significant reduction in anxiety levels after the educational intervention. Various forms of education, including verbal education, audiovisual media, and structured education programs, were found to be effective in reducing preoperative anxiety, with audiovisual and structured education demonstrating more optimal outcomes. It can be concluded that preoperative nursing education is effective in reducing anxiety levels in patients before surgery and should be systematically integrated into perioperative nursing care to improve patient preparedness and psychological well-being.
