Sponsor's own description
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if press needle acupuncture works to treat preoperative anxiety in Tympanoplasty and Mastoidectomy at RSUD Kabupaten Tangerang in adults. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does the press-needle acupuncture administered one day before tympanoplasty and mastoidectomy significantly reduce preoperative anxiety levels-measured using the Amsterdam Preoperative Anxiety and Information Scale (APAIS)-compared with the sham press-needle group at 30 minutes after the intervention and 60 minutes before anesthesia induction? Is there a difference in effectiveness between press-needle acupuncture and sham press-needle acupuncture in influencing Heart Rate Variability (HRV) among patients undergoing tympanoplasty and mastoidectomy at 30 minutes after the intervention, 60 minutes before anesthesia induction, 2 hours postoperatively, and 24 hours postoperatively? Are there any adverse events associated with the use of press-needle acupuncture and sham press-needle acupuncture in patients with preoperative anxiety undergoing tympanoplasty and mastoidectomy? Participants will: Receive press-needle acupuncture or sham press-needle acupuncture one day before surgery Have the press needles left in place for a total of 3 days Undergo removal of the needles before hospital discharge Complete preoperative anxiety assessments and routine monitoring according to the study schedule
