Abstract

Background.Non-adherence to hypertension treatment remains a major public health concern and is influenced by patients’ health beliefs. Objective.This study aimed to analyze the relationship between health beliefs and medication adherence among hypertension clients in the community. Methods. A correlational study with a cross-sectional design was conducted in a hypertension locus village in Kudus Regency in April 2025. A total of 80 hypertension clients were recruited using total sampling. Health beliefs were measured using the Health Belief Model (HBM) questionnaire, including perceived susceptibility, perceived severity, perceived benefits, perceived barriers, and self-efficacy. Medication adherence was assessed using the Morisky Medication Adherence Scale (MMAS-8). Data were analyzed using the chi-square test. Results. The results showed a significant relationship between health beliefs and medication adherence (p < 0.001). Conclusions. Stronger health beliefs were associated with higher adherence to hypertension treatment. These findings highlight the importance of strengthening health beliefs to improve medication adherence and support effective hypertension management in the community.

Abstract

The increasing number of hypertension cases is caused by non-compliance with hypertension treatment. This occurs due to a lack of self-awareness. If this is left untreated, it can have an impact on the incidence of hypertension, which can lead to complications such as heart failure, stroke, and kidney failure. So it can impact the economic and social burden of the community on the treatment phase and loss of community productivity. This study aims to analyze the relationship between self-awareness and adherence to hypertension treatment in the community. The research design used correlation analysis with a cross-sectional approach. The independent variable is self-awareness, and the dependent variable is medication adherence. This study was conducted in a village in Kudus Regency, which is a hypertension locus, in 2025. The research sample of 80 hypertension clients was selected through a total sampling technique based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. The research instrument used the MAAS (Mindfulness Attention Awareness) questionnaire to measure self-awareness and the MMAS-8 (Morisky Medication Adherence Scale) to measure medication adherence. Data analysis used the chi-square test. The results showed a statistically significant relationship between self-awareness and medication adherence with a p-value = 0.03 (p < 0.05). Self-awareness affects medication adherence in hypertension clients in the community. There is a need for strategic interventions to improve medication adherence by increasing public awareness of the importance of hypertension management in the community.
