Background: Preeclampsia is one of three causes of death for pregnant women, contributed to about 27% of maternal mortality in Indonesia. One of intervention that can be made for pregnant women to handling preeclampsia is diet for preeclampsia. Objectives: The purpose this study was to investigate the effectiveness of diets program for preeclampsia on decreasing blood pressure in pregnant women. Methods: A pre-experimental design with one group pretest – posttest was carried out. Population was all pregnant women who experience preeclampsia in Public Health Center in Ciputat South Tangerang. Twenty pregnant women who met criteria and completed the intervention were included in this study by using purposive sampling. Researcher explained the program diet and participants received program diets for preeclampsia in the form of a food list table, and fill in a table of food they consumed every day. Sphygmomanometer to measure blood pressure was used. Data collection with measure blood pressure was performed three times, before intervention, two weeks after diet program and one month after diet program. Repeated Measures ANOVA was applied to analysis with α = 0.05. Results: The mean scores of Systolic blood pressure was 147.06; 143.81; 140.38 in first, second and third collection, respectively. Systolic blood pressure in pregnant women with preeclampsia significantly decreased within two weeks after intervention (F = 31.30; p-value = 0.0001; Eta Squared= 0.676). The mean score of diastolic blood pressure was 102.31, 99.00 and 91.56 respectively. Diastolic blood pressure within two weeks after intervention decreased (F= 19.05; p-value= 0.0001; Eta Squared= 0.560). Conclusion: Diets Programs for Preeclampsia could decrease both systole and diastole blood pressure. The recommendation for pregnant women who have Preeclampsia is to manage preeclampsia diets regularly. Keywords: Blood pressure, diets program, preeclampsia, pregnant.

ABSTRACT Objective: to compare blood pressure values obtained by auscultatory and oscillometric methods in different gestational periods, considering cuff width. Method: it is a cross-sectional and quasi-experimental study approved by the Research Ethics Committee. The sample consisted of 108 low-risk pregnant women. Blood pressure measurements were performed in gestational periods of 10-14, 19-22 and 27-30 weeks. Results: The oscillometric device presented values similar to the auscultatory method in systolic blood pressure, but overestimated diastolic blood pressure. Underestimation of blood pressure occurred when using the standard width cuff rather than the correct width cuff in both measuring methods. Conclusion: Verification of brachial circumference and use of adequate cuffs in both methods are indispensable to obtain reliable blood pressure values in pregnant women. We recommend performance of additional studies to evaluate diastolic blood pressure overestimation by the Microlife 3BTO-A.

Home Based

BackgroundKey benefits of home-based blood pressure measurements are the potential to reduce the risk of ‘white coat hypertension’, encouraging patients to take ownership of their condition and be more actively involved in their long-term condition care, and to move work out of the doctor’s office.AimTo assess whether performing 20 resting blood pressure measurements over a 2-day period would provide a reliable, stable representation of patients’ resting systolic and diastolic blood pressure. Following clinician recommendation, each participant completed the Stowhealth home blood pressure monitoring procedure.MethodOne thousand and forty-five participants (mean age 66±13 years, 531 women and 514 men) completed the procedure, of 10 resting measurements per day, for 2 days (20 resting systolic and diastolic blood pressure readings in total). All measurements were made using automated oscillometric monitors.ResultsWithin-patient coefficient of variation for the entire participant cohort was 8% for systolic blood pressure (cohort mean 141±11 mm Hg), and 8% for diastolic blood pressure (cohort mean 79±6 mm Hg). There were no significant differences between the first and second day, for either systolic (142±1vs 141±1 mm Hg, respectively, p>0.05) or diastolic blood pressures (79±1vs 78±1 mm Hg, respectively, p>0.05 in both cases).ConclusionThe overall duration of home blood pressure monitoring may be able to be reduced to just 48 hours. This method would offer meaningful time saving for patients, and financial and time benefits for doctors and their surgery administration.

Significant Difference

Indirect blood pressure measurements were compared in 28 conscious cats using Doppler and oscillometric blood pressure-measuring devices. Ten cats were used to compare Doppler measurements between two examiners and 18 cats were used to compare Doppler and oscillometric measurements. The Doppler machine obtained systolic and diastolic blood pressure readings in 100% and 51% of attempts, respectively. With the oscillometric machine, systolic and diastolic blood pressure readings were obtained in 52% of the attempts. With the Doppler, measures of mean systolic blood pressure between two examiners were positively correlated, but there was no correlation for diastolic blood pressure measures. When comparing the results obtained by Doppler and oscillometric machines there was no significant difference between mean systolic blood pressure readings, but the oscillometric machine produced significantly higher estimates of diastolic blood pressure. In both cases, the standard deviations for the oscillometric machine were considerably larger than those for the Doppler machine. The first reading of systolic blood pressure obtained with the Doppler machine was an excellent predictor of the mean of five readings, but this was not so for the oscillometric machine. It took less than 5 min to obtain five readings in 37.5% of cases with the Doppler machine but this was true for only 5% of cases with the oscillometric machine. Two cats with ophthalmological lesions consistent with systemic hypertension were identified. In these two patients, systolic blood pressure measurements were between 200 and 225 mmHg when measured by Doppler, and between 140 and 150 mmHg when measured by the oscillometric machine. This suggests that a lower reference range for normal systolic blood pressure values should be used for the oscillometric device.

ABSTRAKKehamilan adalah masa dimulai dari hasil konsepsi sampai lahirnya janin dengan lama kehamilan 280 hari (40 minggu atau 9 bulan 7 hari) dihitung dari hari pertama haid terakhir. Hipertensi pada kehamilan adalah hipertensi yang timbul sebelum usia kehamilan 20 minggu tanpa disertai proteinuria. Hipertensi merupakan komplikasi yang disebabkan oleh kondisi lingkungan seperti faktor keturunan, emosi dan pola hidup yang tidak seimbang. Metode yang digunakan dalam penyusunan laporan penelitian ini adalah deskriptif yaitu metode yang dilakukandengan tujuan memberi gambaran tentang suatu keadaan secara obyektif dengan menggunakan studi kasus yaitu perbandingan antara teori dan kasus nyata. Berdasarkan data yang di peroleh dari Dinas Kesehatan Jawa Timur bulan Januari – Juni Tahun 2015 di dapatkan ibu hamil dengan hipertensi 11.056 orang, data dari Dinas Kesehatan Kabupaten Lamongan sebanyak 143 orang. Data yang diperoleh dari register kunjungan pemeriksaan Antenatal Care (ANC) di PuskesmasSukodadi bulan Januari – Juli Tahun 2015 terdapat 389 orang ibu hamil, di dapatkan 6 orang (1,5%) dengan hipertensi. di BPS Luluk Pusparini, AMd. Keb, didapatkan 2 orang (7,7%) dengan kehamilan hipertensi.Berdasarkan dari hasil pengkajian maka dapat ditegakkan diagnosa yaitu Asuhan Kebidanan pada Ny. “S” Trimester II dengan hipertensi gestasional. Dan dari hasil penelitian ini tidak terdapat kesenjangan antara tinjauan teori dan tinjauan kasus. Diharapkan bagi petugas kesehatan hendaknya dapat mengenali tanda dan gejala hipertensi sehingga dapat melakukan penatalaksanaan dengan baik dan sesuai standart kompetensi.Kata Kunci : Kehamilan, Hipertensi, GestasionalABSTRACTPregnancy is a period started from the conception to the birth in 280 days (40 weeks or 9 months and 7 days) counted from the first day of the last women’s period. Hypertention is a complication caused by many factors like genetics, emotional condition, and unhealthy lifestyle. Hypertension in pregnancy usually occure before 20 weeks of gestational age without any proteinuria. The prevalence of gestational hypertension is quite high in East Java and Kabupaten Lamongan. According to Dinas Kesehatan Jawa Timur, there were 11.056 pregnant women in East Java with hypertension in January-June 2015 while according to Dinas Kesehatan Kabupaten Lamongan, there were 143 case of gestational hypertension in Lamongan. In addition, at a primary care Puskesmas Sukodadi Lamongan, there were 6 of 389 women (1,5%) observed with gestational hypertension and at a midwifery practise, 2 pregnant women (7,7%) were reported had a high blood pressure. The recent studywas a case study of a pregnant woman with high blood pressure using descriptive analysis method.The results showed that there was no discrepancy between theorethical and practical midwifery care for the patient. Health care providers should be able to recognize the symtomps of gestational hypertention so that it could be treatproperly.Keywords : Pregnancy, Hypertension, Gestational.
