1. The finding that sulindac, in contrast to indomethacin, does not inhibit renal prostaglandins synthesis in humans, prompted us to study the role that systemic and/or renal prostaglandins can play in the pharmacological responses to captopril. According to a randomized cross-over design, we compared the short-term (1 week) effect of indomethacin (50 mg twice daily) and of sulindac (200 mg twice daily) on blood pressure, plasma renin activity (PRA), angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE), serum thromboxane (TX) B2 and urinary 6-keto PGF1α of five essential hypertensive patients on chronic treatment with captopril (100-200 mg twice daily). 2. Indomethacin significantly increased systolic (P < 0.02) and diastolic (P < 0.02) blood pressure, decreased PRA (P < 0.05), serum TXB2 (P < 0.001) and urinary 6-keto PGF1α (P < 0.001) and did not change ACE. 3. Sulindac reduced PRA (P < 0.02) and serum TXB2 (P < 0.001) to the same extent as indomethacin, but it did not change ACE and urinary 6-keto PGF1α, and caused only a small and significant increment of blood pressure. 4. These preliminary findings confirm that sulindac selectivity inhibits prostaglandins synthesis and seem to indicate that renal PGI2 can play a role in the antihypertensive action of captopril.

The aim of the study was to determine the effectiveness of giving hydrotherapi foot soak in hypertensive patients. The study was conducted with one group pretestposttest design without a control group by measuring blood pressure (pretest) before being given an intervention in the form of foot soak hydrotherm against 15 people with hypertension in Banjar Sri Mandala, Dauhwaru Village, Jembrana Subregency. Then do the blood pressure measurement again (posttest) after finishing the intervention. After the study was completed, the results showed that before the hydrotherapi foot bath intervention, there were 0% of patients classified as normal, 13.32% in prehypertension category, 60.08% in hypertension category I and 26.60% in hypertension category II. After the intervention was given, there were 13.32% of the patients classified as normal, 66.68% in the prehypertension category, 20.00% in the first category of hypertension and no patients belonging to the second grade hypertension category. There is a decrease of 20-30 mmHg for systolic blood pressure and 0-10 mmHg for diastolic blood pressure after intervention. Based on the results of the study it can be concluded that the hydrotherapi foot bath is effectively used to reduce blood pressure in hypertensive patients in the Banjar Sri Mandala, Dauhwaru Village, Jembrana District.

Early combination therapy is more effective for hypertension control in high-risk patients than monotherapy, and current guidelines recommend the use of either an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) or angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) for first-line therapy in patients younger than 55 years. Recent evidence shows that ACEIs reduce mortality, whereas ARBs show no apparent benefit despite their blood pressure lowering action. However, it is important to consider which blood pressure parameters should be targeted given that different drugs have distinct effects on key parameters. Remarkably, a high percentage of hypertensive patients whose treatment has brought these parameters within target ranges still remain at high risk of cardiovascular disease due to additional risk factors. Combination therapy with synergistic effects on blood pressure and metabolic control should thus be considered for the long-term treatment of hypertensive patients with co-morbid conditions.

Penatalaksanaan farmakologis dan non farmakologis dipercaya dapat mengontrol tekanan darah dan mencegah komplikasi, tetapi banyak pasien hipertensi tekanan darahnya tidak terkontrol. Hal tersebut dikarenakan kepatuhan yang buruk dalam melaksanakan rekomendasi gaya hidup. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis determinan faktor yang berhungan dengan kepatuhan melaksanakan rekomendasi modifikasi gaya hidup. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode cross-sectional di pukesmas dinoyo Kota Malang tahun 2019. Teknik pengambilan sampel menggunakan Consecutive Sampling. Kuesioner yang digunakan meliputi : karakteristik demografi, pengetahuan dan rekomendasi mofifikasi gaya hidup pasien hipertensi. Hubungan antara rekomendasi modifikasi gaya hidup dengan variabel independen dianalisis menggunakan uji chi square dan analisis regresi logistik. 140 pasien hipertensi berpartisipasi dalam penelitian ini (60 laki-laki, 80 wanita). Prevalensi kepatuhan adalah 28,6 %. Tingkat pengetahuan berhubungan signifikan  dengan kepatuhan melaksanakan rekomendasi gaya hidup (p=0,00). Jenis kelamin, usia, dan tingkat pendidikan tidak mempunyai hubungan signifikan dengan kepatuhan rekomendasi modifikasi gaya hidup (p= 0,06; p=0,21; p=0,87). Pengetahuan mempunyai hubungan yang signifikan dengan kepatuhan rekomendasi modifikasi gaya hidup. Management of pharmacological and non-pharmacological is believed to control blood pressure and prevent complications,  but many hypertensive patients have uncontrolled blood pressure. This is due to poor adherence to recommended lifestyle modifications. This study was aimed to determine the factors associated with adherence to recommended lifestyle modifications of hypertensive patients. A cross-sectional study was conducted in Pukesmas Dinoyo Malang in 2019. Consecutive Sampling was used to select study subjects. The questionnaire included information about demographic characteristics, knowledge, practice of lifestyle-modification measures. Associations between adherence to lifestyle modification and independent variables were analyzed using chi square and multivariate logistic regression analysis. 140 hypertensive patients participated in the study (60 men, 80 women). The prevalence of adherence was 28.6%. The level of knowledge was significant associated with adherence to recommended lifestyle modifications (p = 0.00). Genders , age, and educational level were no significant associated with to recommended lifestyle modifications (p= 0.06; p=0.21; p=0.87). Knowledge was significant associated with adherence to recommended lifestyle modifications of hypertensive patients.

Objective: To evaluate the results of treatment achieved blood pressure goal (BP goal) and results of hypertensive patient management. Subjects and methods: A study of 400 hypertensive patient intervention, treatment and management after 2 year. To assess the results of BP target, monitor the use of medicines, the situation of hospitalization and complications of stroke. Results: Treatment: -100% of patients using diuretics and angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEIs), 33% of patients using angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs), 46.25% of patients using calcium channel blockers (CCBs) and 19.5% of patients using beta-blocker. After 24 months of treatment: 50.5% of patients using 1 antihypertensive drug, 22% of patients using 2 drugs, 20.5% of patients using 3 drugs and 7% of patients taking more than 3 drugs. After 24 months of treatment: 91.75% achieved BP target and 8.25% fail. -Average risk stratification: 97.32% achieved BP target, hight risk stratification: 95.91% and very hight risk stratification: 73.03%. After 24 months of treatment. -Stage 1: 88.48% achieved BP target, stage 2: 92.85% achieved BP target and stage 3: 71.08% achieved BP target. After 24 months of treatment. -Hypertesive results before treatment were: 159.80 ± 20,22mmHg average systolic blood pressure and 82.97 ± 5,82mmHg average diastolic blood pressure. After treatment: average systolic blood pressure 125.38 ± 6,88mmHg and average diastolic blood pressure 79.83 ± 1,79mmHg. No adverse change in the index of tests about lipidemia, liver, kidney, glucomia and no recorded cases of drug side effects. Management of patients: -There were 89% non-medical examinational patients 1 month, 5.25% non-medical examinational patients 2 months, 4.25% non-medical examinational patients 3 months and 1.5% non-medical examinational patients 4 months. There were 93.5% drop pill 1 month, 3.25% drop pill 2 months, 4.25% drop pill 3 months and no patient drop pill over 3 months.
