    The present study aims to determine the relationship between preoperative anxiety and coping styles to stress in patients at a clinic in Metropolitan Lima. Methodology: A quantitative approach was used to study the variables, with an applied type, hypothetical-deductive method, non-experimental design, and descriptive and correlational level. From a population of 244 patients over two months of care, a representative sample of 150 was obtained through simple random sampling. Two main tests were administered: the Spielberger Anxiety Rating Scale (IDARE) to measure preoperative anxiety and the Brief COPE (Coping Estimation) Questionnaire to assess coping styles. Results: Among the patients surveyed at a clinic in Metropolitan Lima, 57.33% reported a high level of preoperative anxiety, 26.00% had a moderate level, and 16.67% had a low level. Regarding coping styles, 65.33% of the patients exhibited a moderate level of coping styles, 32.00% had a high level, and 2.67% had a low level. Conclusion: It is concluded that there is an inverse and moderate relationship (Rho = -0.519) between preoperative anxiety and coping styles, which is statistically significant (p = 0.000 < 0.050). This means that when preoperative anxiety is high or moderate, coping styles are low.
