<![CDATA[Hypertension is one of the non-communicable diseases that are experienced by many elderly and can cause various health problems, one of which is sleep pattern disorders. Untreated sleep pattern disorders can reduce the quality of life of the elderly. One of the non-pharmacological therapies that can be used to overcome this problem is music therapy. The purpose of this case study is to describe the management of sleep pattern disorders in the elderly with hypertension through music therapy at the East Kalongan Ungaran Health Center. The method used is a descriptive case study with a nursing process approach that includes assessment, nursing diagnosis, intervention, implementation, and evaluation. The study subjects were elderly people aged 60–70 years who had hypertension and sleep pattern disorders. The intervention was in the form of Benson music therapy for 20 minutes every day for 3 consecutive days accompanied by monitoring sleep patterns and blood pressure. The results of the study showed that the patient had difficulty sleeping, often woke up at night, felt dissatisfied with his sleep, and had a blood pressure of 160/110 mmHg. An established nursing diagnosis is that sleep pattern disorders are associated with lack of sleep control. After 3 days of music therapy, patients reported better sleep, less frequent waking up, increased sleep time, and felt more rest. Blood pressure also decreased to 145/90 mmHg. Evaluation shows that the problem of sleep pattern disorders is partially resolved and music therapy can help improve sleep quality and lower blood pressure in the elderly with hypertension.]]>
