Abstract

Hypertension is a prevalent health concern among older adults and is strongly associated with increased Body Mass Index (BMI). Excess body weight contributes to elevated blood pressure through physiological mechanisms, including increased peripheral vascular resistance and heightened sympathetic nervous system activity. This study aimed to examine the association between BMI and hypertension prevalence among older adults. An analytical observational study with a cross-sectional design was conducted among 60 older adults selected through purposive sampling. Data were collected using standardized procedures, including measurements of body weight, height, and blood pressure. BMI was categorized according to standard criteria. The association between BMI and hypertension was analyzed using Fisher's Exact Test, with α = 0.05. The prevalence of hypertension among participants was 58.3%. Higher proportions of hypertension were observed in overweight (68.2%) and obese (80.0%) individuals compared to those with normal BMI. Statistical analysis revealed a significant association between BMI and hypertension (p = 0.012). BMI is significantly associated with hypertension among older adults. These findings highlight the importance of weight management through nutritional education, physical activity promotion, and routine blood pressure monitoring as part of comprehensive elderly healthcare services.

Abstract

Hipertensi merupakan masalah kesehatan yang sering terjadi pada lansia dan berkaitan erat dengan peningkatan Body Mass Index (BMI). Kelebihan berat badan pada usia lanjut berkontribusi terhadap peningkatan tekanan darah melalui mekanisme fisiologis seperti resistensi perifer dan aktivasi sistem saraf simpatis. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan antara BMI dan kejadian hipertensi pada lansia di wilayah kerja Puskesmas Modayag, Kabupaten Bolaang Mongondow Timur, Sulawesi Utara. Penelitian menggunakan desain observasional analitik dengan pendekatan cross-sectional. Sampel terdiri dari 60 lansia yang dipilih secara purposive sampling. Data diperoleh melalui pengukuran berat badan, tinggi badan, dan tekanan darah menggunakan alat terstandar. Analisis hubungan dilakukan menggunakan uji Fisher’s Exact Test dengan taraf signifikansi α = 0,05. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan sebanyak 58,3% responden mengalami hipertensi, dengan proporsi tertinggi pada kelompok overweight (68,2%) dan obesitas (80%). Hasil uji menunjukkan hubungan signifikan antara BMI dan hipertensi (p = 0,012). Temuan ini menegaskan pentingnya upaya pengendalian berat badan melalui edukasi gizi, peningkatan aktivitas fisik, dan pemantauan tekanan darah perlu diperkuat dalam pelayanan kesehatan lansia.
