Abstract

Hypertension is a non-communicable disease with a high prevalence and is known as a silent killer because it can cause serious complications without clear early symptoms. Hypertension management is generally carried out with pharmacological therapy, but non-pharmacological therapies such as foot massage have also been proven effective. Foot massage is a technique that provides relaxation, improves blood circulation, and reduces sympathetic activity, thus lowering blood pressure. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of foot massage in reducing blood pressure among hypertensive patients. The benefits of this study are expected to provide input for students, educational institutions, healthcare providers, and patients with their families as a complementary alternative therapy. The method used was a case study on a patient with hypertension in the working area of Pampang Health Center, with a 20-minute foot massage intervention. The results showed a significant decrease in blood pressure from 180/97 mmHg to 173/90 mmHg on the first day, and from 169/90 mmHg to 158/87 mmHg on the second day. The patient also reported a reduction in pain scale from 4 to 3 and felt more relaxed. In conclusion, foot massage is an effective, safe, and low-cost complementary therapy for hypertension control

Abstract

Hypertension is one of the most prevalent non-communicable diseases and remains a global health problem, often referred to as a silent killer. Elderly individuals with hypertension frequently experience poor sleep quality, which may worsen blood pressure conditions. Objective: This study aims to determine the effect of sleep quality on blood pressure in elderly patients with hypertension. This research employed a case study design on an elderly patient with hypertension at Puskesmas Pampang. The interventions provided included sleep hygiene education, restriction of coffee consumption at night, and regulation of sleep patterns. Evaluation was carried out for three consecutive days by monitoring sleep quality and measuring blood pressure. Results: Before the intervention, the patient had poor sleep quality with blood pressure levels of 167/80 mmHg and 164/85 mmHg. After the intervention, sleep quality improved, complaints of difficulty sleeping decreased, and blood pressure decreased to 162/80 mmHg. Conclusion: Improving sleep quality has an effect on reducing blood pressure in elderly patients with hypertension. Good sleep quality can serve as an important non-pharmacological factor in the management of hypertension

Abstract

STROKE is one of the major health problems in Indonesia because it not only increases morbidity and disability rates but also reduces patients' quality of life. Physical mobility impairment is one of the common effects on post-stroke patients due to muscle weakness and limited range of motion. One nursing intervention that can be provided to reduce these effects is Range of Motion (ROM) exercises, which have been proven to maintain joint flexibility, increase muscle strength, and prevent complications from immobilisation. To determine the application of ROM in stroke patients with physical mobility disorders in the working area of the Pampang Community Health Centre in Makassar City. A case study was conducted through nursing care that included the stages of assessment, nursing diagnosis, planning, implementation, and evaluation. The intervention was carried out for three days (3x24 hours) on patient Mr. B, a 66-year-old male with a history of non-haemorrhagic stroke since 3 years ago who experienced weakness in his right extremities. The results showed that after ROM exercises, the patient experienced improved mobility, characterised by reduced muscle stiffness, increased limb strength, and increased range of motion. Daily evaluations showed that the problem of physical mobility impairment had been partially resolved, with the involvement of the family playing an important role in helping with the exercises at home. The application of ROM is effective in improving the mobility of stroke patients, preventing complications due to immobilisation, and supporting patient independence. ROM exercises are a simple, inexpensive intervention that can be performed independently by patients and families, so they are recommended for routine application both in health facilities and at home.

Abstract

Hypertension is a chronic disease with a low rate of medication adherence. Many patients only take medication when symptoms occur, which increases the risk of complications. Health education plays an important role in improving patients’ understanding and behavior related to hypertension therapy. Objective: To determine the effectiveness of an education program in improving medication adherence among hypertension patients. Methods: This study employed a pre-experimental design with a pretest-posttest approach. Data were collected through observation sheets and interviews. Results: Before receiving education, the patient only took medication when experiencing symptoms, with a blood pressure of 165/95 mmHg. After the educational intervention, the patient demonstrated improved knowledge, started using a phone alarm as a reminder, and showed better medication adherence. Blood pressure decreased to 150/90 mmHg. Conclusion: The education program was proven effective in improving patients’ knowledge and adherence to antihypertensive medication. Continuous education that is simple, easy to understand, and involves family support plays a crucial role in controlling blood pressure and preventing long-term complications.
