Childbirth, whether through vaginal delivery or Cesarean section (CS), is a significant event often accompanied by psychological challenges such as anxiety, particularly among women undergoing CS. This quantitative study aimed to explore the correlation between spousal support and anxiety levels in 40 first-time CS candidates. Using purposive sampling, this research employed the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HARS) and the Spousal Support Questionnaire as measurement tools. The majority of respondents were aged 26-35 years (80%), in their third trimester of pregnancy (100%), primigravida (80%), and presented with indications for CS (65%). All respondents reported receiving supportive spousal support during their pregnancy. The study revealed that 70% of mothers experienced mild anxiety, with only 5% reporting moderate anxiety. Statistical analysis using the Spearman rank test demonstrated a significant relationship between spousal support and anxiety levels among first-time CS candidates (p = 0.034, p < 0.05). This suggests that higher levels of spousal support correlate with lower anxiety levels in expectant mothers undergoing CS. The findings underscore the importance of spousal support during pregnancy and childbirth, highlighting the need for partners to accompany and provide emotional support to mitigate anxiety. Future research should explore additional factors influencing anxiety and consider interventions to enhance support mechanisms for expectant mothers undergoing CS.

Breast cancer is a cancer with a high mortality rate that primarily affects women. This disease can affect self-efficacy and quality of life. This study aims to determine the relationship between self-efficacy and the quality of life of breast cancer patients at SMC Telogorejo Hospital. This is quantitative research with a correlational approach. The purposive sampling technique was used in this study to sample 42 respondents. The study's results showed that most of the people who responded were between the ages of 46 and 55 (50.0%), had at least a high school diploma (47.6%), worked as housekeepers (47.6%), were married (90.5%), and had been through chemotherapy at least six times. Of those people, 39 (92.9%) had high self-efficacy and 36 (85.7%) had good quality of life. The Spearman test rank showed that there is no relationship between self-efficacy and quality of life in breast cancer patients (p-value = 0.077). Future researchers should consider expanding the scope of their research to enhance its quality by developing, adding variables, and conducting thorough analyses.

Breast cancer is a type of malignant cancer that requires chemotherapy, chemotherapy has one effect, one of which is nausea and vomiting. Nausea and vomiting can be overcome with eucalyptus aromatherapy. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of eucalyptus aromatherapy on nausea and vomiting in post-chemotherapy breast cancer patients. This research method uses a pre-experimental pretest and posttest one group design. The sampling technique used was purposive sampling on 62 respondents, using the INVR measuring instrument. The results of the analysis obtained the majority of age 41.9%, education 46.8% and employment status 48.4%. The vomiting rate of post-chemotherapy patients before being given the intervention was moderate nausea and vomiting 53.2% and after giving eucalyptus aromatherapy 45.2% after that the Wilcoxon statistical test was carried out, so that the p value of nausea was 0.000 <0.05. The conclusion is that there is an effect of giving eucalyptus aromatherapy on nausea and vomiting in post-chemotherapy breast cancer patients. Suggestions for future researchers can be used as a reference for future researchers and pay more attention to the time of giving eucalyptus aromatherapy so that it can be optimal
