Description
The primary complaint in Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) is chest pain, characterized by a pressing
or heavy sensation in the retrosternal area, which may radiate to the left arm, neck, jaw, interscapular
area, shoulder, or epigastrium. Non-pharmacological pain management for ACS patients can include
aromatherapy. This case report aims to illustrate the application of aromatherapy in a patient with
Unstable Angina Pectoris (UAP). The patient is a 56-year-old female nurse who presented with
complaints of left-sided chest pain, described as heavy and tight, with a pain scale rating of four.
Aromatherapy was administered three times, each session lasting 30 minutes. The patient chose jasmine
essential oil, based on her preference. Aromatherapy is particularly effective for mild pain and can be
beneficial for patients with Unstable Angina Pectoris or other forms of Acute Coronary Syndrome. The
use of aromatherapy promotes relaxation, resulting in a calmer state and a reduction in the patient's
perceived pain. Further research is needed on the use of aromatherapy for ACS, particularly
concerning sleep disturbances and anxiety. Nurses can administer aromatherapy as a complementary
therapy to support overall patient care.
