Inconsequent, 48 people were taken as a sample by simple random sampling. Data analysis with Wilcoxon signed-rank test was conducted for the analysis and it showed differences on blood pressure (p-value: 0,000), pulse (p-value: 0,000) and stress level (p-value: 0,000) in primary hypertensive patients before and after being given ergonomic exercises at SokobanahSubdistrict, Sampang Madura Regency.
