Abstract

Introduction: Hypertension (HTN), defined as systolic blood pressure (SBP) >140 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure (DBP) >90 mmHg, is a major health problem that is growing worldwide. It is the most common risk factor for cardiovascular disease and affects nearly two-thirds of adults aged 60 years or older. The side effects caused by experiencing prolonged high blood pressure are kidney damage (kidney failure), heart (coronary heart disease) and brain which can lead to stroke if not detected early and receive adequate treatment. And can also cause death. Risk factors for complications of hypertension include elderly age, medication compliance, and lifestyle. Empowerment of the elderly can be through non-pharmacological therapy. An example of non-pharmacological therapy is by doing anti-hypertension exercises. The purpose of this program is for the elderly to be able to learn about hypertension and apply how to do anti-hypertension exercises.
