Abstract

Hypertension is currently still a health problem in both developed and developing countries because if it is not controlled, it will develop and cause complications. The role of the family is needed in controlling hypertension. Family has a role as caregiver in improving the health status of sick family members, because family is the main support for hypertensive patients in maintaining health. This study aims to describe the role of the family towards family members suffering from hypertension. This research is a qualitative research with a phenomenological approach. The technique of taking participants in this study used a nonprobability sampling technique, namely purposive sampling. There are 5 informants in this study. Data collected using unstructured interview techniques (unstructurer interview). The data validity test that was carried out included credibility test, transferability test, and confirmability test. Data analysis was performed using content analysis method. The results of this study are expected that the family can increase its role as a caregiver in providing care for family members who suffer from hypertension. The health status of people with hypertension is very much determined by how active the family is in providing care for their family members.

Abstract

Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is a common vascular complication in individuals with diabetes mellitus and hypertension and may lead to diabetic foot ulcers and limb amputation if not detected early. This community service program aimed to conduct early detection of PAD among high-risk populations through Ankle Brachial Index (ABI) screening and Random Blood Glucose (RBG) testing. The activity was carried out in Sabiano Village, Wundulako Subdistrict, Kolaka Regency, involving 27 participants aged 42–72 years. The methods included measuring systolic blood pressure in the arm and ankle using the MESI ABPI MD device to determine ABI values and assessing RBG levels to identify hyperglycemia. The results showed that most participants had normal ABI values ranging from 0.90 to 1.30. However, one participant had an ABI value below 0.90, indicating a risk of PAD, while five participants had RBG levels of ≥200 mg/dL, suggesting uncontrolled blood glucose levels. These findings indicate the presence of individuals requiring further medical evaluation and follow-up. ABI screening proved to be an effective, practical, and non-invasive method for identifying vascular disorders in at-risk populations. This program highlights the importance of routine screening as a preventive effort to reduce vascular complications and strengthen primary healthcare services through early detection and timely intervention.
