Abstract

Stroke refers to a disorder caused by cerebral blood flow interruption that results in neurological impairment. Brain deterioration causes anxiety and eventually results in mortality.  The prevalence of anxiety in stroke (Post-Stroke Anxiety, or PSA) is 10.9%, with most of the cases occured in males and ranged from mild to moderate levels. The anxiety usually appear when daily activities cannot be done. The long-term impacts of post-stroke anxiety influence one's quality of life. Providing natural sounds music, such as music from piano, bird noises, and water bubbling sounds, is an alternative to alleviate the post-stroke anxiety. This study aims at identifying whether nature sounds music might help to reduce anxiety in post-stroke patients. Quasi-experimental design was carried out by implementing a one-group pretest-and post-test design. Post-stroke patients who had been unable to carry out everyday tasks for more than 6 months were purposively selected as research samples. Data were obtained through interviews and observations, as well as using questionnaire (The Hamilton Rating Scale for Anxiety or HRS-A). Paired T-Test was used in analyze the data. The findings showed that from 17 respondents, 11 of them (64.7%) had moderate anxiety, while the others (35.3%) had severe anxiety. The tests on varied degrees of anxiety showed the p-value of 0.000, indicating that there was difference in anxiety prior and after being given nature sounds music. The post-test mean value (18.53) was lower than that on the pre-test (21.53). To summarize, nature sounds music is good for lowering anxiety in post-stroke patients.

Abstract

Hypertension is a chronic condition that cannot be cured but can be effectively managed. It often develops without symptoms as early as adolescence and may worsen with age. In adolescents, hypertension increases mortality, morbidity, and risk of future cardiovascular diseases, while also disrupting daily activities and productivity. If left uncontrolled and no early prevention efforts, it can lead to severe complications, underscoring the importance of screening across all age groups (adolescents, adults, elderly). The purpose of this study was to identify factors influencing the risk of hypertension and to analyze the relationship between age, gender and hypertension. The research employed a descriptive-analytical design with a cross-sectional approach, involving 169 respondents (113 adolescents, 2 adults, and 54 elderly individuals) who were selected through purposive sampling. Data collection involved a high blood pressure risk screening questionnaire and blood pressure measurements taken using a sphygmomanometer. The Chi-Square test was used for analysis at a significance level of <0.05. The study results showed that 76 (45.0%) respondents were not at risk, and 93 (55.0%) respondents were at risk of hypertension. A significant correlation between age and gender with the risk of hypertension was found (p-values=0.000). As a conclusion, there was a significant correlation between age and gender with the risk of hypertension (p-value = 0.000), with 55.0% of respondents at risk of hypertension.
