Background: Particularly among first-time surgical patients, anxiety is still a common issue among those
having preparatory procedures. The mental and physical health of the patient might be impacted by anxiety
levels before to surgery. One of the many elements that affects the mental health of patients before surgery
is the level of support they get from loved ones. This research to finding out how patients' anxiety levels
correlated with the amount of support they received from family members was the driving force behind this
research at Regional General Hospital 45 Kuningan.

who participated in this research were all first-time surgical patients. Purposive sampling was used in the
sampling process. This study's tools included the Amsterdam Preoperative Anxiety and Information Scale
(APAIS) and a family support questionnaire.
Results: Anxiety levels are positively correlated with family support, with a correlation value of -0.370
showing a negative or unidirectional link
Conclusions: Based on the results of the Spearman Rank test analysis, which included 136 participants,
with a resulting P value of 0.000 <0.05, it can be inferred that patients whose first surgery was at 45 Kuningan
Regional General Hospital had a significant correlation between anxiety levels and family support..
