Abstract

Introduction: Pregnancy is a vulnerable phase for the mother's mental health. Adequate husband support is believed to reduce the risk of psychological disorders such as depression, anxiety, and stress. This study aims to systematically examine the influence of husband support on the psychological well-being of mothers during pregnancy Research Methodology: This systematic study was conducted by searching scientific articles in the PubMed, Scopus, and PsycINFO databases from 2020 to 2025. The inclusion criteria included quantitative studies that evaluated the relationship between husband support and the psychological condition of pregnant women. Data from 18 eligible studies were analyzed narratively. Results: Most studies show that emotional, informative, and practical support from husbands is negatively correlated with maternal levels of depression, anxiety, and stress. Husbands who are actively involved in prenatal care contribute to the improvement of the mother's mental health. The lack of husband support has been shown to worsen psychological conditions during pregnancy. Conclusion: Husband's support has a significant impact on maintaining the psychological well-being of pregnant women. Family-based interventions and couples education programs can be effective strategies to improve husband support and maternal mental health during pregnancy

Abstract

Introduction: Hypertension is a significant non-communicable disease that remains a public health concern in Indonesia, especially in urban areas like Makassar. Pharmacological treatment often faces adherence challenges due to side effects and economic limitations. Non-pharmacological interventions such as deep breathing relaxation techniques offer a simple, low-cost, and effective alternative to manage blood pressure. This study aimed to analyze the effectiveness of educational interventions on deep breathing relaxation techniques in reducing blood pressure among hypertensive patients at Tamalanrea Jaya Public Health Center, Makassar. Methods: This case study used a descriptive design involving two female hypertensive patients aged 59 and 60. The intervention consisted of deep breathing relaxation therapy administered over three days, accompanied by structured health education on proper breathing techniques. Blood pressure was measured before and after each session. Results: Before the intervention, respondent 1 had a blood pressure of 160/120 mmHg, and respondent 2 had 170/120 mmHg. After three sessions of deep breathing relaxation, their blood pressure reduced to 130/90 mmHg and 140/90 mmHg, respectively. Both respondents reported improved comfort, relaxation, and adherence due to the simplicity and flexibility of the technique. Conclusion: The results indicate that deep breathing relaxation techniques, combined with structured education, effectively lower blood pressure in hypertensive patients. This method is practical, non-invasive, and can be performed independently at home. It is recommended as a complementary approach in primary health care settings to help manage hypertension and reduce the risk of complications
