Abstract

Hypertension is a non-communicable disease (NCD) associated with unhealthy lifestyle behaviors and often occurs without noticeable signs or symptoms; therefore, it is known as a silent killer. Blood pressure control is essential to prevent complications, and effective management strategies are required, including complementary therapies. Foot massage is a non-pharmacological intervention that has the potential to reduce blood pressure. This study aimed to determine the effect of foot massage therapy on blood pressure reduction in patients with hypertension. This study employed a quasi-experimental design with a sample of 22 respondents. The results showed that before the foot massage intervention, the mean systolic and diastolic blood pressure of respondents was 160.8/92.2 mmHg, while after the intervention, it decreased to 145.5/85 mmHg. Data were analyzed using the Wilcoxon test. The findings indicated that foot massage therapy had a significant effect on reducing blood pressure in patients with hypertension, with a p-value of 0.001. This study recommends foot massage as an evidence-based nursing intervention that can be independently implemented by nurses as a complementary non-pharmacological therapy to assist in blood pressure control among patients with hypertension.

Abstract

Common chronic disease hypertension affects the elderly and, if untreated, may reduce their quality of life. Apart from drug therapy, safe and easy-to-manage supplementary treatments are needed. One alternative treatment for freezing is the finger grip approach, which is supposed to be soothing and lower blood pressure. This essay aims to employ knowledge of finger grip techniques as a supportive treatment option for elderly people with hypertension. Two senior persons diagnosed with hypertension are the subject of the approach's case study. Ten to fifteen minutes each day for three straight days was spent on the finger grip method. Measurements of blood pressure were taken both before and after the therapy. The systolic and diastolic blood pressure of both participants dropped following the finger grip treatment; they also stated they felt calmer and at ease. The conclusion of this case study is that the finger grip approach might be used as a supporting therapy to lower blood pressure in elderly patients with hypertension.

Abstract

There has been a decrease in patient visits from BPJS participants at Rajeg health centers in 2022 by 591,700, in 2023 by 581,776, and in 2024 by 199,940 patient visits. The decline that occurred was possibly caused by a lack of comfort and empathy, therefore there was a lack of relationship between the patient and the nurse. So there is a decrease in visits every year to the Rajeg Health Center. This research is to determine the relationship between the quality of health services and patient satisfaction using the “Social Security Administering Agency” (BPJS) which uses five dimensions, namely reliability, responsiveness, assurance, empathy and physical evidence. The research design used in this research is a quantitative approach with a descriptive correlation design. Sample The sampling technique in this research uses a non-probability sampling method using accidental sampling technique. The sample used was 255 respondents. Data analysis used in this research is the chi-square test by looking at the correlation coefficient value. The results of this research are that the quality of service, namely in the satisfaction category, is (71.8%) and patient satisfaction with BPJS users is (75.3%). In the statistical results, the p-value = 0.000 < 0.05, therefore, it can be concluded that there is a relationship between the quality of health services and the satisfaction of patients using BPJS.
