Abstract

Family anxiety during intensive care treatment is a common psychological response arising from patients’ critical conditions and uncertainty in the care process. Unmanaged anxiety may negatively affect family well-being and interfere with clinical decision-making. This study aimed to identify factors associated with family anxiety among patients receiving intensive care at RSUD Raden Mattaher, Jambi Province. A quantitative cross-sectional design was employed involving 81 family members selected through consecutive sampling. Data were collected using a demographic characteristics questionnaire and the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HARS). Data analysis consisted of univariate and bivariate analyses using Spearman’s rank correlation and Chi-square tests. The results showed significant associations between family anxiety levels and age (p = 0.005), gender (p = 0.023), socioeconomic status (p < 0.001), and prior experience caring for a family member in the Intensive Care Unit (p = 0.036). In contrast, educational level (p = 0.667) and perceived nurses’ roles (p = 0.847) were not significantly associated with family anxiety. These findings highlight the importance of early psychosocial assessment and strengthening family-centered nursing approaches to reduce anxiety among families of patients receiving intensive care.

Keywords: family anxiety; Intensive Care Unit; determinant factors; family nursing.
