Medication Therapy

Medication therapy management (MTM), is a service model aimed at helping general health problems by preventing morbidity and mortality. Hypertension is a non-communicable disease which is a serious health problem which requires long-term therapy.  This study aims to see the effect of MTM on clinical Outcomes and quality of life of patients in hypertensive patients. This type of research is a quasi experimental one group with a pretest-posttest design. Analysis using paired sample t-test and Wilcoxon test with a significance used P <0,05. Respondents were 70 people, 67,1% were women. The characteristics of the majority age are 55-64 years with a percentage of 51,4%, the majority of education level is high school with 42,8%, non-civil servant jobs with a percentage of 45,7%, the length of diagnosis is dominated by 1-10 years (77,1%) and comorbidities diabetes mellitus occurred the most (10,0%). The results showed that the quality of life increased from before getting MTM 54,4 ± 8,9 and after MTM intervention 60,4 ± 6,6 (P value <0,001). Clinical outcome from systolic 159,2 ± 8,9 mmHg and diastolic 103,8 ± 8,0 mmHg before MTM to 144,1 ± 14,4 mmHg for systolic and 89,7 ± 8,8 mmHg for diastolic with p value <0,001 (p <0,05) for systolic blood pressure and p value: 0,016 (p <0,05) after receiving MTM intervention. Medication Therapy Management (MTM) has a significant influence on improving the quality of life and clinical Outcomes of hypertensive patients. The higher the quality of life of patients, blood pressure becomes more controlled.

Objective To investigate the effects of Shaolin Ba Duan Jin on patients with hypertension. Methods In the hypertensive patients detected in the national physical fitness test of public officials in Guiyang City, 40 patients with hypertension were selected. The experiment was started after Shaolin Ba Duan Jin has been practiced for seven days and the subjects had learned it. Experimental method: Frequency of subjects practicing Ba Duan Jin is 7 days a week, subjects practice once a day, practicing time is 6:00-7:30 am or 18:00 -19:30 pm, practicing lasts 1.5 hours each time (practicing has 3 groups, 14 minutes in each group；subjects rest 2 minutes between groups,；preparing part is 8 minutes；ending part is 5 minutes), record the blood pressure of the subjects before and after each experiment, and fill in the quality of life scale (WHOQOL-BREF scale) regularly for a period of 12 weeks. Questionnaire method: Fill in the quality of life scale every three weeks and measure heart rate and blood pressure before and after each exercise. Mathematical statistics: The paired sample t test was used to analyze the changes in blood pressure before and after the 12-week experiment. Results 1) The systolic and diastolic blood pressures of the subjects were significantly lower than before the experiment (P <0.01). 2) The WHOQOL-BREF scale after 12 weeks has improved significantly in all areas than before the experiment. Conclusions 1) Martial arts Ba Duan Jin has a good influence on the circulatory system of hypertensive patients. The performance is that the heart rate is slow and the systolic and diastolic blood pressures have a downward trend. 2) Martial arts Ba Duan Jin has significant improvement in the physiology, psychology, social relations, environment and other fields .

Objective: Essential hypertension is the most frequent kind of hypertension and also known as primary hypertension or idiopathic, affecting 95% of hypertensive patients. This study was conducted to see the effect of Yogic practices as Nadi Shodhana Pranayama (NSP = cleaning of subtle energy channel along with regulation of rhythm of breathing) and Dhyana (meditation) on the symptoms of Raktagata Vata (essential hypertension), blood pressure, and Hamilton’s anxiety rating scale.Methods: This clinical study was conducted on 50 cases of Raktagata Vata, and these were randomly divided into two subgroups: (1) Control and (2) intervention consisting of 25 cases in each subgroup. Yogic practices were done regularly for 3 months by the registered cases in both subgroups. Light medication of first order initially was also prescribed to intervention subgroup.Result: In both subgroups, significant results (p<0.001) were observed and most of the symptoms of Raktagata Vata improved better in the intervention than control subgroup. Significant results (p<0.001) were also observed in blood pressure along with Hamilton’s anxiety scale scoring.Conclusion: Yogic practices impact positive effects on Agya Chakra (hypothalamus-cerebral system), control autonomic nervous system and improve the quality of life of Raktagata Vata patients by improving symptoms and regulating the blood pressure.

Objective: Hypertension and dyslipidemia are widely recognized a major risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD). The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the nursing intervention on cholesterol level and quality of life (QOL) among hypertensive patients with dyslipidemia.Methods: Design: A quasi -experimental pre-post-test design was used to achieve the aim of the study. The study was conducted in the University Hospital at Shebin El-kom District, Menoufia Governorate, Egypt. Purposeful sample of 100 hypertensive patients with dyslipidemia on treatment from the previous mentioned setting. Instruments: (1) structured interview questionnaire to assess socio-demographic data, risk factors of hypertension and dyslipidemia and patient’s knowledge about hypertension and dyslipidemia; (2) Physiological measurement to assess blood pressure, weight and cholesterol level; (3) QOL scale to assess healthful lifestyle.Results: The main findings of the study there was statistically significant improvement of total knowledge related to hypertension and dyslipidemia, and there was statistically significant reduction in blood pressure and cholesterol level post-intervention than pre-intervention.Conclusions: The nursing intervention has a positive effect on blood pressure, cholesterol level and QOL of hypertensive patients with dyslipidemia.Recommendations: The nursing intervention that includes of adherence to diet regimen, prescribed medication and performing physical exercise, stress management, assertiveness training should be integrated into medical outpatient clinic to assist patients diagnosed with hypertension to cope with their illness and improve the QOL of hypertensive patients.

Hypertension is one of ten degenerative diseases that decline the patient’s quality of life. Controlling hypertension through the role of pharmacists as a care giver in home pharmacy care activities can reduce the morbidity of the disease. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of home pharmacy care education on the quality of life of hypertensive patients hospitalized at the Gamping II Public Health Center. This research design was quasi-experimental with a pre post control group. Respondents of this study were 28 hypertensive patients of the Gamping II Public Health Center. They were taken by simple random sampling and then divided into 2 groups, control and intervention. In the intervention group, respondents were given a pre-test and then educated with Home Pharmacy Care as many as 4 times. Data on blood pressure changes were measured using tensimeter, while quality of life assessment was SF-36 questionnaires. Data were analyzed by using student t-test. The results of this study showed that hypertensive patients are home pharmacy care services at Gamping II Public Health Center had significantly decreased blood pressures both systolic and diastolic (p <0.05), while the quality of life showed a significant increase (p <0.05). It was concluded that the application of home pharmacy care education to hypertensive patients in GampingPublic Health Center could reduce blood pressure and can statistically improve quality of life.
