Abstract

Hypertension is a chronic non-communicable disease that can lead to severe complications such as stroke and heart problems. A non-pharmacological approach like warm foot soak therapy offers a simple and effective method for lowering blood pressure. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of warm foot soak therapy on reducing blood pressure in hypertensive patients. Using a pre-experimental design with a one-group pretest-posttest method, 13 participants with mild to moderate hypertension underwent a single 15-minute session of warm foot soak therapy. Blood pressure was measured before and after the intervention using a digital sphygmomanometer. On average, systolic blood pressure dropped from 180.15 mmHg to 157.77 mmHg, while diastolic pressure decreased from 101.08 mmHg to 96.08 mmHg. Most participants (92.3%) experienced a reduction in blood pressure. The findings indicate that warm foot soak therapy is effective in lowering blood pressure and can serve as a practical non-pharmacological nursing intervention in community health settings.

Abstract

Decreased physical function and accompanying diseases in the elderly will result in dependency and helplessness of the elderly. The role of family can make the elderly experience positive changes in their lives. The family has an informal role for the elderly, namely the family becomes a friend, caregiver, encourager, coordinator, and as peacemaker in caring for the elderly. Therefore, a community service program was carried out to find out family dysfunction in the elderly who live with their families. The study was conducted with pre-elderly and elderly in Musholla Al Anshor (Muslim prayer room), RT. 15, Gang Purnama Pasar Lama, Banjarmasin with 15 respondents. This community service was carried out face-to-face using APGAR family assessment, preparation of tools and rooms and the elderly. It was implemented using the APGAR (Adaptation, Partnership, Growth, Affection, Resolve). Family assessment questionnaire consisted of 3 categories, namely high family dysfunction (0-3), moderate family dysfunction (4-6), and low family dysfunction (7-10). The results of this community service program were obtained from all respondents who had APGAR assessment scores for families with low family dysfunction (100%), moderate family dysfunction (0%), and high family dysfunction (0%). It means that family functions still plays a good role in both the pre-elderly and elderly who live with their families.
