Abstract

Hypertension is a major non-communicable disease concern in coastal communities because high-sodium dietary practices and smoking may increase the risk of elevated blood pressure. Hypertension cases at Pasar Ikan Public Health Center increased from 2,307 cases in 2023 and 2024 to 2,347 cases in 2025. Objective: To analyze the relationship between dietary patterns, smoking habits, and the incidence of hypertension in the coastal area served by Pasar Ikan Public Health Center, Bengkulu City. This quantitative cross-sectional study involved 94 respondents selected by simple random sampling. Dietary patterns were assessed using a Semi-Quantitative Food Frequency Questionnaire, smoking habits through a questionnaire, and hypertension through blood-pressure measurement; data were analyzed using frequency distributions and the Chi-Square test at α=0.05. Forty-eight respondents (51.1%) had unhealthy dietary patterns, 45 (47.9%) were non-smokers, and 62 (66.0%) had hypertension. Dietary pattern was significantly associated with hypertension (χ²=6.467; p=0.011), as was smoking habit (χ²=9.731; p=0.008). Dietary patterns and smoking habits were significantly related to hypertension, supporting stronger low-salt dietary education, smoking cessation, and routine blood-pressure screening in coastal communities.

Abstract

Hypertension is a disease characterized by an increase in systolic blood pressure ≥140 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure ≥90 mmHg. Hypertension is known as a silent killer because it often occurs without clear symptoms and can cause complications such as stroke, heart disease, and kidney failure. This community service activity aimed to increase public knowledge and awareness regarding hypertension prevention in the elderly. The method used was health education through counseling, discussions, and question-and-answer sessions. Educational media used included leaflets, posters, and presentations. The participants were elderly and adults in the community. The results showed that participants were enthusiastic during the activity and experienced increased knowledge about hypertension, including risk factors, symptoms, prevention, and healthy lifestyles. Participants were able to understand the importance of reducing salt intake, exercising regularly, avoiding smoking, maintaining ideal body weight, and routinely checking blood pressure. The counseling activity proved effective in improving community understanding and awareness about hypertension prevention. It is expected that the community can apply healthy lifestyle behaviors to reduce the risk and complications of hypertension in the future.
