The purpose of this study was to explain reducing stress on patiens with cervical cancer through Spiritual Emotional Freedom Technique (SEFT) at RSUP Dr. Hasan Sadikin Bandung. Improvements on patient’s stress will lead to a better result on cervical cancer therapy.Methods: This study was used quasy experiment pre-post test randomize control group design. Patient with cervical cancer at stadium I to III that taking chemotherapy was selected by using purposive sampling and divided into two groups. Each group contains 34 patients. Intervention group was given SEFT in three round. Each round took 30 minutes. Before and after intervention patients was given Questionnaire. The data were analyzed using paired t-test and independent t-test.Result: The result of this research showed that patient’s stress getting lower signifi cantly after intervention.Conclusion: SEFT could reduced stress on patients with cervical cancer that taking chemotherapy at RSUP Dr. Hasan Sadikin Bandung.

Summary
Penelitian ini menggunakan quasy experiment pre dan post test randomize control group design. (Dahlan, 2011). Sampel penelitian ini adalah pasien kanker serviks sejumlah 68 orang yang terbagi dalam dua kelompok, yaitu kelompok perlakuan 34 orang dan kelompok kontrol 34 orang. Untuk membandingkan perbedaan rerata skor stres pada kelompok perlakuan dengan kelompok kontrol dilakukan dengan independent t-test. Rerata skor stres pada kelompok perlakuan sebelum intervensi sebesar 50,79 dan setelah intervensi 31,29 (Tabel 1), sehingga diperoleh penurunan rerata skor stres 19,59 dengan standar deviasi 6,929 (p=0,000) (Tabel 2). Pada kelompok kontrol rerata stres sebelum intervensi sebesar 47,03 dan setelah intervensi 45,56 (Tabel 1), sehingga diperoleh rerata penurunannya 1,47 dengan standar deviasi 8,863 (p =0,340) (Tabel 2). Hasil independent t-test menunjukkan bahwa SEFT bermakna menurunkan stres pasien kanker serviks dengan perbedaan rerata selisih pre-posttest sebesar 18,02, p-value 0,000 (95 % CI 14,117- 21,882).
