Selama pasien dirawat di ruang Intensive Cardiac Care Unit (ICCU), keluarga pasien mengalami kesulitan dan ketidakberdayaan. Bagi keluarga pasien, ruang rawat intensif merupakan tempat yang tidak menyenangkan. Keluarga masuk dalam kondisi yang tidak terduga dan dibutuhkan ketepatan keluarga dalam mengambil keputusan guna keberlangsungan hidup terkait kondisi pasien yang membutuhkan penanganan.Lama perawatan pasien di ruang ICCU sangat beragam. Lama rawat pasien ICCU berdampak langsung terhadap kualitas hidup pasien dan keluarga, risiko terjadinya di masa depan, dan besarnya pembiayaan dampak dari perawatan. Selama keluarga mendampingi perawatan pasien di ruang ICCU, keluarga akan mengalami berbagai reaksi emosional seperti kecemasan. Tujuan: Mengetahui hubungan lama hari rawat dengan tingkat kecemasan keluarga pasien di ruang ICCU. Metode: Korelasi dengan pendekatan cross sectional dengan sampel 42 responden di ruang ICCU, yang dipilih dengan menggunakan metode purposive sampling. Instrumen penelitian ini menggunakan kuesioner HARS. Data dianalisis dengan uji korelasi Spearman. Hasil: Lama hari rawat pasien rata-rata 3,14 hari. Kecemasan keluarga pasien ICCU paling banyak berada pada tingkat kecemasan berat (33,3%). Terdapat hubungan yang bermakna antara lama hari rawat dengan tingkat kecemasan keluarga pasien (p=0,0003) dengan keeratan hubungan yang sedang (r=0,532) di ruang ICCU. Diskusi: Semakin lama pasien dirawat di ruang ICCU maka semakin tinggi tingkat kecemasan yang dirasakan keluarga pasien karena kondisi pasien yang tidak stabil ataupun semakin parah. Kesimpulan: Keluarga pasien perlu diberikan informasi dan edukasi yang jelas terkait kondisi pasien dalam sehari atau saat ada perburukan kondisi.Kata kunci: kecemasan, keluarga, lama hari rawat, perawatan intensif, perawatan kritis. Correlation Between Length of Stay and Anxiety Levels of Patients’ Family in Intensive Cardiac Care Unit Room ABSTRACTWhile a patient is being treated in the Intensive Cardiac Care Unit (ICCU), the patient's family experiences difficulties and helplessness. For the patient's family, the intensive care unit is an unpleasant place. The family enters into unexpected conditions and is required to make proper decisions for survival related to patient conditions. The patient's length of stay in the ICCU room is very diverse. The length of stay of ICCU patients directly impacts patients' quality of life and their families, the risk of future incidence, and the extent of the treatment cost. While the family accompanies the patient treated in the ICCU room, the family will experience various emotional reactions such as anxiety. Objective: To reveal the correlation between length of stay and the anxiety levels of the patient’s family in the ICCU room. Methods: Correlation with cross-sectional approach with a sample of 42 respondents in the ICCU room, who were selected using a purposive sampling method. The research instrument used the HARS questionnaire. Data were analyzed using the Spearman correlation test. Results: The average length of the patient's stay was 3.14 days. Family anxiety of ICCU patients was mostly at the level of severe anxiety (33.3%). There was a significant correlation between length of stay and anxiety levels of the patient’s family (p=0.0003) with a moderate correlation coefficient (r=0.532) in the ICCU room. Discussion: The longer the patient is treated in the ICCU room, the higher the anxiety level felt by the patient’s family due to the patient's unstable or worsened condition. Conclusion: Clear information and education should be given to the patient's family regarding the patient's condition within one day or when the condition worsens.Keywords: anxiety, family, length of stay, intensive care, critical care
