Abstract

Hypertension is one of the most common diseases found in primary medical practice. The manifestation of hypertension is a disorder of cardiovascular hemodynamic balance which has an increase in systolic blood pressure ≥ 140 mmHg and or diastolic blood pressure ≥ 90 mmHg which is persistent, on repeated examinations. Hypertension complications can affect various target organs such as the heart, brain, kidneys, eyes, and peripheral arteries. Hypertension is influenced by the role of intravascular volume, the role of autonomic nerve control, and the role of renin angiotensin aldosterone. Tea is thought to have a variety of health benefits and most of the evidence suggests that green tea consumption is associated with lowering blood pressure. Tea and its secondary metabolites, namely polyphenolic compounds called flavonoid, play an important roles in relaxing smooth muscle contraction, enhancing eNOS activity, reducing vascular inflammation, inhibiting rennin and endothelin-1 activity and anti-vascular oxidative stress. Consumption of green tea can significantly reduce systolic blood pressure by 1.98 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure by 1.92 mmHg. The positive effect of green tea on blood pressure was obtained after consuming low doses (<582.8 mg/day) with long-term duration (≥12 weeks). A drop in blood pressure can lower the chance of complications.

Abstract

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is one of the chronic diseases which is the highest cause of death in Indonesia and the number of morbidities continues to increase so that the health costs of DM disease are also higher. Diabetes is a disease that can be controlled or prevented if it can be detected as early as possible, because diabetes is often associated with a person's lifestyle and diet which results in increased blood sugar levels in the body. The purpose of this activity is to empower the community, such as health cadres and community members in identifying and preventing diabetes mellitus. The method that will be carried out is health education through lectures and interactive discussions, and videos. This activity was carried out for 1 day and took place in Sumberrejo Village, Kemiling sub-district, Bandar Lampung City. Participants totaled 30 people who were village officials, health cadres and community members. The results of the evaluation of the service implementation found that there was an increase in the participants' understanding of 93.33% to a good understanding, 6.67% of the participants had a fairly good understanding, and no participants had a poor understanding of the signs and symptoms, risk factors, and prevention of DM. The average pretest result was 58.2 and there was an increase in the posttest result which was 84.5. Based on the analysis using the Wilcoxon test, it was found that there was a statistically significant mean difference in the participants' pretest and posttest scores (p=0.001). Community empowerment activities in identifying and preventing DM have proven effective.
