Abstract

Introduction: Hospitalization for dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) may generate parental anxiety because the child's condition can change and requires monitoring. The purpose of this study is to describe the anxiety experienced by parents of children with dengue hemorrhagic fever. Methods: This study employs an observational quantitative, descriptive design. The sample for this study consisted of 48 parents of children suffering from DHF in the inpatient wards of a public hospital in Gresik District, selected using purposive sampling based on inclusion criteria. The variable in this study is the anxiety experienced by parents whose children have DHF. The instrument used was the Indonesian-language Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAM-A). Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics: frequency distributions and percentages. Results: The results showed that nearly half of the children (40%, or 19 respondents) had Grade II DHF, and the majority (60%, or 29 respondents) were in the first three days of the illness; regarding parental anxiety, the majority (60%, or 29 respondents) experienced moderate anxiety. Conclusions: Stress management and nurses' provision of information help parents manage the stress associated with their child's hospitalization. should explore culturally tailored interventions to enhance resilience in this vulnerable population
