Abstract

Background: Hypertension is a major public health problem with increasing prevalence and is a primary risk factor for various cardiovascular diseases. Workers exposed to work stress and work fatigue are at higher risk. This study aimed to determine the relationship between work stress and work fatigue with the incidence of hypertension among employees at PT. Milano Kebun Sei Daun.  Method: This quantitative study used a cross-sectional design. The population comprised all 52 employees, and total sampling was used to include all as respondents. Data were collected using questionnaires, observation sheets, and blood pressure measurements. Univariate analysis described frequency distributions, and bivariate analysis used the chi-square test (α=0.05). Results: The study found that 14 respondents (26.9%) had hypertension. Among those with high work stress, 2 had hypertension; among those with high work fatigue, 3 had hypertension. Chi-square tests showed significant associations between work stress and hypertension (p=0.044) and between work fatigue and hypertension (p<0.001). Conclusion: There are significant relationships between work stress and work fatigue with the incidence of hypertension among employees at PT. Milano Kebun Sei Daun. Workplace interventions to reduce stress and fatigue are recommended.

Abstract

Background: Hypertension is a non-communicable disease with increasing prevalence, including among productive age adults. Coffee consumption habits and unhealthy lifestyles are suspected to increase the risk of hypertension. This study aimed to determine the relationship between coffee consumption and lifestyle with the incidence of hypertension among productive age adults in Tanjung Gusta Village, Medan City.  Method: This quantitative study used a cross-sectional design. The sample comprised 98 respondents selected using accidental sampling. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and blood pressure measurement using a sphygmomanometer. Data were analyzed using the chi-square test with a significance level of 0.05. Results: Among 98 respondents, 18 (18.4%) had hypertension. Coffee consumption was significantly associated with hypertension (p=0.033), and lifestyle was also significantly associated with hypertension (p=0.041). Respondents who frequently consumed coffee and had unhealthy lifestyles showed higher proportions of elevated blood pressure. Conclusion: There are significant relationships between coffee consumption and lifestyle with the incidence of hypertension among productive age adults in Tanjung Gusta Village, Medan City. Limiting coffee intake and adopting a healthy lifestyle are recommended for hypertension prevention.
