MANFAAT VECOV-19 DALAM PENANGANAN KECEMASAN PEDAGANG TERHADAP PENULARAN COVID-19

Covid-19 adalah penyakit menular yang dapat menular secara cepat dari manusia ke manusia melalui kontak langsung. Rasa kecemasan yang dirasakan karena takut akan tertular covid-19 salah satunya disebabkan oleh informasi yang tidak valid tentang penyakit covid-19. Berdasarkan hasil survey dari pemerintah Jawa Tengah di pasar Karangayu ditemukan 3 orang pedagang positif covid-19. Kemudian pasar Karangayu ditutup selama 3 hari untuk dilakukan desinfektan dan pengaturan jarak antara pedagang. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui manfaat VECOV-19 dalam menurunkan kecemasan pedagang terhadap penularan covid-19. Penelitian ini menggunakan rancangan penelitian quasy experiment with control group pre test post test design. Kelompok intervensi akan dilakukan pengukuran kecemasan sebelum dan sesudah diberikan edukasi menggunakan media video edukasi kesehatan. Sedangkan kelompok kontrol akan dilakukan pengukuran kecemasan sebelum dan sesudah diberikan brosur. Penelitian dilakukan dengan total sampel 184 responden dengan menggunakan teknik simple random sampling. Hasil penelitian mayoritas responden berusia 50-51 tahun, lama kerja 24-25 tahun, jenis kelamin perempuan, pendidikan SD dan SMA, mayoritas sudah menikah, mayoritas tidak ada penyakit penyerta. Hasil penellitian terdapat perbedaan kecemasan pre test dan post test kelompok intervensi dan kontrol, tetapi tidak ada perbedaan kecemasan pedagang yang diberikan VECOV-19 atau leaflet. Penelitian ini dapat disimpulkan bahwa mayoritas tingkat kecemasan pedagang dalam kategori tidak cemas dan pemberian VECOV-19 atau leaflet dapat menurunkan skor kecemasan pedagang. Penelitian ini direkomendasikan untuk perawat dalam penanganan kecemasan.Covid-19 is an infectious disease that can be transmitted quickly from human to human through direct contact. One of the reasons for the anxiety that is felt because of the fear of contracting COVID-19 is due to invalid information about the COVID-19 disease. Based on the results of a survey from the Central Java government at the Karangayu market, it was found that 3 traders were positive for COVID-19. Then the Karangayu market was closed for 3 days to be disinfected and distanced between traders. This study aims to determine the benefits of VECOV-19 in reducing traders' anxiety about the transmission of covid-19. This study uses a quasi-experimental research design with control group pre-test post-test design. The intervention group will measure anxiety before and after being given education using health education video media. While the control group will measure anxiety before and after being given a brochure. The study was conducted with a total sample of 184 respondents using simple random sampling technique. The results of the study were the majority of respondents aged 50-51 years, working length of 24-25 years, female gender, elementary and high school education, the majority were married, the majority had no comorbidities. The results of the study showed that there were differences in pre-test and post-test anxiety in the intervention and control groups, but there was no difference in the anxiety of traders who were given VECOV-19 or leaflets. It can be concluded that the majority of traders' anxiety levels are in the non-anxious category and giving VECOV-19 or leaflets can reduce traders' anxiety scores. This research is recommended for nurses in handling anxiety
