Abstract

Purpose: This study aimed to determine whether different doses of red watermelon juice, namely 150 ml and 250 ml, were effective in reducing blood pressure among hypertensive patients in Ngepungrojo Village, Pati. It was hypothesized that both doses would lower blood pressure, with a possible difference in effectiveness between the two intervention groups. Research Method: This study used a quasi-experimental design with a pre-test post-test approach involving 32 hypertensive patients selected through total sampling. Respondents were divided into two intervention groups, each receiving 150 ml or 250 ml of red watermelon juice. Blood pressure was measured before and after intervention using a digital sphygmomanometer. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, paired sample t-test, and independent sample t-test. Results and Discussion: Both intervention groups showed significant reductions in systolic and diastolic blood pressure after treatment. In the 150 ml group, blood pressure decreased significantly, and similar results were observed in the 250 ml group. However, no statistically significant difference was found between the effectiveness of the 150 ml and 250 ml doses. Implications: Red watermelon juice may be considered a simple non-pharmacological intervention to help control blood pressure in hypertensive patients. Further studies with larger samples and stricter control of confounding factors are recommended.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aims to analyze the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and foot oxygen saturation with the incidence of peripheral neuropathy in patients with diabetes mellitus, considering that this complication is common and can be influenced by various risk factors. Research Method: This quantitative study used a cross-sectional design at the Gribig Kudus Community Health Center. A sample of 82 respondents was selected from 103 patients with diabetes mellitus using the Slovin formula and a purposive sampling technique, based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. The instruments included the Semmes-Weinstein Monofilament Test for diagnosing peripheral neuropathy, a scale and stature meter for measuring BMI, and a pulse oximeter for measuring oxygen saturation in the feet. Univariate analysis was conducted to describe the characteristics, and bivariate analysis was performed using the Spearman rank correlation test. Results and Discussion: The results of the study indicate a relationship between BMI and foot oxygen saturation with the incidence of peripheral neuropathy in patients with diabetes mellitus. A high BMI and decreased oxygen saturation in the feet contribute to an increased risk of peripheral neuropathy through mechanisms involving circulatory disorders and microvascular damage. Implications: These findings can serve as a basis for healthcare professionals to implement preventive interventions and early management of peripheral neuropathy complications through weight control, monitoring of extremity oxygen saturation, and education for patients with diabetes mellitus.
