Abstract

Background: Hypertension is a prevalent condition among the elderly in rural areas. Anxiety in older adults with hypertension in these regions can significantly impact their blood pressure management, as it may hinder their adherence to medical treatment and healthy lifestyle practices. Purpose: This study aims to analyze the relationship between coping mechanisms and anxiety levels in elderly individuals with hypertension in rural areas. Methods: This quantitative study employs a cross-sectional approach. The population consisted of 198 elderly individuals, with a sample size of 132 elderly individuals with hypertension, selected using simple random sampling. The independent variable is the coping mechanism, and the dependent variable is the level of anxiety. Research instruments included the Coping Mechanism Questionnaire and the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HARS). Statistical analysis was conducted using the gamma test. Results: The findings indicate that the majority (59.1%) of participants utilized maladaptive coping mechanisms, while nearly half (41.7%) experienced severe anxiety. The gamma test revealed a P-value of 0.000 ≤ 0.05, with a contingency coefficient of -1.000, indicating a statistically significant and strongly negative relationship between coping mechanisms and anxiety levels in elderly individuals with hypertension. Conclusions: The study concludes that adaptive coping mechanisms are associated with lower anxiety levels in hypertensive elderly. Providing these individuals with information and counseling on effective coping mechanisms could help reduce anxiety and promote more adaptive coping strategies.

Abstract

Hypertension is a common disease not only in the older age group but also in the productive age group. Various health problems will arise if the hypertension that occurs cannot be controlled properly. Controlling hypertension requires high awareness and adequate skills in self-care management. A family approach needs to be taken to provide more optimal results. Empowering families who are aware of hypertension through acupressure and progressive muscle relaxation carried out in this activity can increase family knowledge and skills in controlling hypertension. The family has a good understanding of hypertension and is able to practice acupressure and progressive muscle relaxation well. Families can teach and accompany family members who suffer from hypertension regarding controlling their hypertension in their daily lives on a regular basis. It is hoped that good understanding and ability to control hypertension can improve health status and improve the quality of life for families with hypertension sufferers.

Abstract

Background: The self-care management of older diabetics is inconsistent and exhibits low adherence. This incident may be influenced by the elderly's disease management capabilities and familial involvement, which may not be conducive to their health and care. This study aimed to develop a management plan for elderly diabetes mellitus that emphasizes self-efficacy and family involvement. Methods: This research employed an explanatory survey design with a cross-sectional methodology. The probability sampling method, particularly simple random sampling, was employed to choose respondents for this study from a cohort of 100 individuals with diabetes mellitus and their families. We created a thorough assessment questionnaire for diabetes mellitus management in the elderly, utilizing the functional consequence model and family-centred nursing theory as the research framework. The statistical method employed was SEM-PLS. Results: The outer model analysis revealed that all indicators of each construct were valid, with a factor loading value of > 0.7. The inner model analysis revealed that the variables family structure, family function, family stressors, elderly risk factors, age-related changes, and elderly consequence functions had a significant effect with a t-value of >1.96 and p-value <0.05. Conclusion: The diabetic mellitus management model, which is based on self-efficacy and familial support, improves self-care management among the elderly. Nurses should adopt the diabetic mellitus management model to increase patient autonomy and educate families on how to support their loved ones, thereby improving the self-care practices of elderly adults with diabetes.

Abstract

Background: Dating behavior among adolescents today leads to risky dating behavior that has an impact on premarital sexual behavior. Teenagers are curious about new things and can be influenced by their partners, environment, and peers. Purpose: This study aims to analyze the relationship between the role of peers and dating behavior in adolescents. Methods: This research design is quantitative with a cross-sectional approach. The population at State Senior High School "X" Jember was 121 students, with a sample size of 93 students. The sampling technique used was simple random sampling. The independent variable is the role of peers, and the dependent variable is dating behavior. These two variables were measured using a questionnaire on the role of peers and dating behavior. Univariate analysis was performed with frequency distribution. Bivariate analysis using Fisher's Exact test. Results: The results showed that almost all peer roles were in the positive category, with a percentage of 84.9%. Most respondents showed non-risky dating behavior, 72.0%. Fisher's Exact test results show that the p-value (0.000) is smaller than α (0.05). This means the alternative hypothesis is accepted and indicates a relationship between peer roles and adolescent dating behavior. Conclusions: Positive peer roles tend to lead to non-risky dating behavior. Therefore, adolescents should be more careful in choosing peers to avoid engaging in risky dating behavior.
