ABSTRACTHypertension is the most commonly encountered problems experienced by the elderly with sometimes unknown cause. One effort to lower blood pressure in the elderly is to provide yoga exercises, where yoga exercises can stimulate endorphin hormone expenditure. The purpose of review was to determine the effectiveness of yoga exercises for decreasing blood pressure in the elderly. An initial search for articles was done on Google Scholar and PubMed. Studies obtained about exercise therapy for hypertension elderly have 4,560 articles / journals but only 5 articles meet the search criteria. According to the search results, yoga exercises can reduce blood pressure in the elderly. Besides, it is also very important to be applied as a non-pharmacological therapy for the elderly who have a medical history of hypertension. It is expected that health professionals can recommend this as a therapy for lowering blood pressure in the elderly.  ABSTRAKHipertensi adalah masalah yang paling sering ditemui yang dialami oleh lansia dengan penyebab yang terkadang tidak diketahui. Salah satu upaya menurunkan tekanan darah pada lansia adalah dengan memberikan senam yoga, dimana senam yoga dapat merangsang pengeluaran hormon endorphin. Tujuan review adalah untuk mengetahui keefektifan senam yoga dalam menurunkan tekanan darah pada lansia. Pencarian awal untuk artikel dilakukan di Google Scholar dan PubMed. Studi tentang terapi senam lansia hipertensi didapatkan 4.560 artikel / jurnal tetapi hanya 5 artikel yang memenuhi kriteria pencarian.

Long as the elderly are getting older, the cardiovascular system will experience changes such as arteries losing their elasticity, leading to an increase in pulse and systolic blood pressure. Acupressure is a development of acupuncture therapy that can lower blood pressure; stimulation at the acupressure point causes the release of endorphin hormones which reduce lactic acid production to provide a relaxed and comfortable condition. This study used a pre-experimental research design with a one-group pre-posttest design with simple random sampling, which involved 34 elderly with hypertension. According to the standard operational procedure (SOP), blood pressure was measured with a sphygmomanometer, and acupressure therapy was the standard operational procedure (SOP). Data analysis was carried out using a paired t-test because the data were normally distributed. The results showed that the mean blood pressure before the intervention was 152.35/97.65 mmHg, while after the intervention, the average blood pressure was 140.74/90.59 mmHg. Analysis with paired sample t-test obtained p-value = 0.001 in systolic and diastolic pressures. There were differences in blood pressure before and after acupressure therapy intervention in the elderly at Kediri I Public Health Center, Tabanan Regency. It is hoped that nurses can independently provide acupressure therapy to older adults with hypertension to lower blood pressure.

ABSTRAK   Hipertensi adalah suatu kondisi abnormal dari tekanan darah yang di tandai dengan peningkatan tekanan darah di atas normal. Salah satu faktor yang menyebabkan peningkatan tekanan darah tinggi adalah usia. Karena semakin bertambahnya usia seseorang maka pembuluh darah akan cenderung lebih kaku dan elisitasnya berkurang, sehingga mengakibatkan tekanan darah meningkat. Salah satu cara untuk mengobati hipertensi yaitu dengan mengkonsumsi jus belimbing. Jus belimbing dapat menurunkan tekanan darah, dikarenakan adanya kandungan kalium, kalsium dan magnesium pada buah belimbing yang mampu menurunkan tekanan darah.Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui keefektifan pemberian jus belimbing pada lansia dalam menurunkan tekanan darah di Panti Wredha Harapan Ibu Semarang.Metode yang di gunakan studi kasus dengan mengambil sampel sebagian dari keseluruhan lansia yang menderita hipertensi di Panti Wredha Harapan Ibu Semarang. Jumlah responden sebanyak 10 lansia yang di bagi menjadi dua kelompok yaitu 5 yang di beri jus belimbing dan 5 lagi yang tidak di beri jus belimbing. Instrumen dari penelitian ini adalah tensimeter, stetoskop dan lembar observasi. Hasil penelitian yang di lakukan didapatkan pada 5 responden sebelum dan sesudah di berikan jus belimbing selama 7 hari, kelima responden mengalami penurunan tekanan darah sistolik maupun diastoliknya. Kesimpulan dari penelitian ini adalah ada keefektifan pemberian jus belimbing pada lansia dalam menurunkan tekanan darah di Panti Wredha Harapan Ibu Semarang.   ABSTRACT Hypertension is an abnormal condition of blood pressure that is marked by an increase in blood pressure above normal. One of the factors that causes elevated high blood pressure is age. Because of the increasing age of a person the blood vessels will tend to be more rigid and reduced elicity, resulting in increased blood pressure. One way to treat hypertension is by consuming star fruit juice. Star fruit juice can lower blood pressure, due to the presence of potassium, calcium and magnesium content in star fruit that can lower blood pressure. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of starfruit juice in the elderly in lowering blood pressure in Panti Wredha Harapan Ibu Semarang.Metode in use case study by sampling a portion of the whole elderly who suffer from hypertension at Wredha Harapan Ibu Semarang Orphanage. The number of respondents as many as 10 elderly who are divided into two groups, namely 5 which is given starfruit juice and 5 more that is not given star fruit juice. Instruments of this research are tensimeter, stethoscope and observation sheet. The results of the research were obtained on 5 respondents before and after giving starfruit juice for 7 days, the five respondents had decreased systolic blood pressure and diastolic. The conclusion of this research is the effectiveness of juice starfruit juice in elderly in lowering blood pressure at Wedha Harapan Ibu Ibu Semarang.

Hipertensi sudah menjadi masalah kesehatan yang cukup tinggi di dunia tidak hanya ditemukan pada Negara maju tapi dijumpai juga pada negara- negara berkembang. Ketika tensi berada pada angka diatas 140 mmHg untuk tekanan darah sistolik dan di atas angka 90 mmHg untuk tekanan darah diastolik maka kondisi inilah disebut hipetensi. Hipertensi banyak dijumpai pada lansia, beberapa faktor yang melatarbelakangi lansia mengidap hipertensi antara lain faktor kepekaan terhadap kadar garam, reaktivitas pembuluh darah terhadap vasokonstriktor, pola makan, kebiasaan merokok, stress emosi, kegemukan dan lain-lain. Adapun tata laksana pengendalian tekanan darah tinggi ada dua jenis yaitu pengebotan medis dengan obat-obatan dan pengendalian tanpa obat atau teknik relaksasi yang bertujuan untuk merelaks kan otot-otot dan organ sehingga mampu menurunkan tekanan darah. Tujuan dari kegiatan pengabdian ini adalah pengenalan cara pengendalian tekanan darah berupa pelaksanaan terapi shalat dhuha. Panti Sosial Tresna Werdha Provinsi Nusa Tenggara Barat merupakan mitra pada pelaksanaan pengabdian ini. Metode yang dikukan dalam kegiatan pengabdian ini dengan pelaksanaan terapi shalat dhuha selama 7 hari berturut-turut sebanyak 4 rokaat setiap harinya. Hasil dari kegiatan pengabdian ini didapatkan penurunan tekanan darah setelah dilakukannya terapi shalat dhuha. Setelah  pelaksanaan kegiatan pengabdian ini diharapkan terapi shalat dhuha tetap dilaksanakan secara rutin untuk mengendalikan tekanan darah agar tetap stabil.---Hypertension has become a fairly high health problem in the world not only found in developed countries but also in developing countries. When tension is above 140 mmHg for systolic blood pressure and above 90 mmHg for diastolic blood pressure then this condition is called hipetension. Hypertension is found in the elderly, several factors behind the elderly have hypertension, among others, factors of sensitivity to salt levels, vascular reactivity to vasoconstrictor, diet, smoking habits, emotional stress, obesity and others. As for the procedure of controlling high blood pressure there are two types of medical sabotage with drugs and control without drugs or relaxation techniques aimed at relaxing the muscles and organs so as to lower blood pressure. The purpose of this devotional activity is the introduction of a way of controlling blood pressure in the form of the implementation of dhuha prayer therapy. Tresna Werdha Social Home in West Nusa Tenggara Province is a partner in the implementation of this service. The method carried out in this devotional activity with the implementation of dhuha prayer therapy for 7 consecutive days as many as 4 rokaat every day. The result of this devotional activity was obtained a decrease in blood pressure after the dhuha prayer therapy. After the implementation of this devotional activity, it is expected that dhuha prayer therapy will still be carried out regularly to control blood pressure in order to remain stable.

Hypertension in the elderly is often not realized (silent disease), this is due to the result of reduced muscle flexibility of the blood vessels which will cause thickening of the arteries and even stiffening, causing the arteries and aorta to lose their adaptive capacity and the walls of these blood vessels to become inelastic and causes the blood that leaves the heart to flow that is not smooth. Treatment for hypertension sufferers can also be done non pharmacologically or using traditional medicine, one of which can use chayote. Chayote can lower blood pressure because chayote contains potassium. Potassium is a mineral that is good for lowering or controlling blood pressure. The aim of this case study was giving chayote juice to reduce blood pressure in hypertensive elderly. This type of research is descriptive with the case study method. The subjects of this study were two hypertensive elderly patients with blood pressure more than 140 - 90 mmHg and able to communicate. The results of the case studies show that there is a change in blood pressure drop from before consuming chayote juice and after consuming chayote juice, so it is hoped that the elderly can consume chayote juice regularly.
