Abstract

Antihypertensive therapy used in patients with End-Stage Renal Disease undergoing hemodialysis is objected to decrease mortality related to ESRD complications. Nonadherence to antihypertensive therapy can lead to uncontrolled blood pressure. This study aims to determine the level of adherence to antihypertensive drugs and its correlation to blood pressure control in ESRD patients undergoing hemodialysis. It was an observational analytic study based on the cross-sectional method. Sixty  person subjects were involved using the quota sampling technique. The level of adherence was examined using the Modified Morisky Scale questionnaire. Blood pressure data were obtained from mean values of respectively pre, during, and post-hemodialysis blood pressure within four hemodialysis visitations. The data was examined bivariately using the Chi-square test with a 95% confidence interval. The results show most patients have high level of adherence to antihypertensive treatments (55%) yet have uncontrolled levels of blood pressure (95%). The Chi-square analysis found there is no significant relationship between the level of adherence to antihypertensive therapy and the average blood pressure level of ESRD patients who undergo hemodialysis (p-value 0,301). This finding suggests a consideration in monitoring the effectivity of hypertension management that adherence is not a single significant factor affecting the successfulness of medication.

Abstract

The use of plastic materials as packaging for Qurban (refers to the act of sacrificing an animal during the Islamic festival of Eid al-Adha) meat is indeed more practical, but its characteristic of being non-biodegradable poses environmental problems. Therefore, an alternative packaging solution using plant leaves needs to be explored. Teak leaves, a forestry plant, contain antimicrobial properties that can inhibit the growth of pathogens, thus extending the shelf life of meat at room temperature. This approach has a positive impact on the distribution of Qurban meat, as it maintains quality while being environmentally safe. The utilization of teak leaves as wrapping material for meat is a part of the Green Qurban 1444 H activity at Universitas Syiah Kuala (USK) in Banda Aceh. The committee is responsible for managing a total of 11 goats and 9 cows, with the meat distributed among 13 villages, resulting in 578 portions. The teak leaves used for wrapping correspond to the respective meat portions. In conclusion, the use of teak leaves in the Green Qurban 1444 H activity at USK serves the dual purpose of supporting the environmentally friendly concept by replacing plastic and maintaining the quality of the meat.
