Hypertension is a condition in blood pressure in the blood vessels chronically elevated. This can happen because the heart work harder to pump blood to meet the body's need for oxygen and nutrients Hypertension prevalence in Indonesia continues to increase every year, so did the prevalence in the city of Tasikmalaya. Management of hypertension require a serious, because if it would not affect other body systems disorders. SEFT is a complementary therapy that can be used for the treatment of hypertension. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of therapy SEFT on blood pressure in hypertensive patients with a given treatment 1 and 3 times round SEFT in two different groups, and find out the effect of the number of rounds SEFT to high blood pressure in hypertensive patients. The research method using the quasy experimental pretest-posttest with control group approach, using purposive sampling technique sampling. The research sample consisted of 30 patients with hypertension aged more thanr 18 years, and are divided into two groups: the experimental group and the control group. The results showed that SEFT effect on reduce of blood pressure in hypertensive patients, but there was no significant difference between treatment 1 rotation with 3 rotations of the number of rotations. The results of this study can be used as a reference by both academics and practitioners to apply nursing SEFT therapy in reducing blood pressure in hypertensive patients, especially for independent nursing practitioners

Abstract Background To evaluate the efficacy of microvascular decompression (MVD) in reducing hypertension (HTN) in hypertensive patients with trigeminal neuralgia (TN). Methods The clinical data of 58 cases of neurogenic HTN with TN treated in our hospital were retrospectively reviewed. Preoperative MR revealed abnormal blood pressure in the left rostral ventrolateral medulla (RVLM) and the posterior cranial nerve root entry zone (REZ). The patients were divided into control group: only trigeminal nerve was treated with MVD; experimental group: trigeminal nerve, RVLM and REZ were treated with MVD at the same time. The patients were followed up for 6 months to 1 year to observe the changes of blood pressure. Results There was no significant difference in gender, age, course of TN, course of HTN, grade of HTN and preoperative blood pressure between the two groups. After operation, the effective rate of HTN improvement with MVD was 32.1% in the control group. There was no significant difference in the preoperative and post operative blood pressure. (P△SBP = 0.131; P△BDP = 0.078). In the experimental group, the effective rate was 83.3%. The postoperative blood pressure was significantly lower than preoperative values. (P△SBP < 0.001; P△DBP < 0.001). Conclusions MVD is an effective treatment for neurogenic HTN. However, the criteria for selecting hypertensive patients who need MVD to control their HTN still needs to be further determined. Possible indications may include: left trigeminal neuralgia, neurogenic HTN; abnormal blood pressure compression in the left RVLM and REZ areas on MR; and blood pressure in these patients can not be effectively controlled by drugs.

Objectives. To evaluate the effectiveness of acupressure on the Taichong acupoint in lowering systolic and diastolic blood pressure (BP) in hypertensive patients.Methods. Eighty patients with hypertension attending a cardiology outpatient department in central Taiwan were included in this randomized clinical trial. Acupressure was applied to the Taichong acupoint in the experimental group (n=40) and to the first metatarsal (sham acupoint) in the control group (n=40). Blood pressure was measured by electronic monitoring before and immediately 15 min and 30 min after acupressure.Results. The average age of the experimental and control participants was 59.3 ± 9.2 years and 62.7 ± 8.4 years, respectively. The two groups were similar for demographics and antihypertensive drug use. Mean systolic and diastolic BP in the experimental group decreased at 0, 15, and 30 min after acupressure (165.0/96.3, 150.4/92.7, 145.7/90.8, and 142.9/88.6 mmHg); no significant changes occurred in the control group. There was a significant difference in systolic and diastolic BP between the experimental and control groups immediately and 15 and 30 min after acupressure (p<0.05).Conclusion. Acupressure on the Taichong acupoint can lower BP in hypertensive patients and may be included in the nursing care plan for hypertension. However, additional studies are needed to determine the optimal dosage, frequency, and long-term effects of this therapy.

Abstract Background Blood pressure is influenced by biopsychosocial factors such as physical, environmental, emotional, cognitive and behavioral in hypertensive patients. ObjectiveThe aim of this study is to investigate confounding factors in hypertensive patients who have poor blood pressure control.DesignThis study was designed as a cross-sectional study.ParticipantsOur sample was 407 patients with hypertension in Rize, a Northern city in the Black Sea Region of Turkey. In study group, there were 207 hypertensive patients who had admission to emergency department due to high blood pressure. In control group, there were 200 hypertensive patients visiting family physician,who defined themselves as having regulated blood pressure over the past six months.Main MeasuresPatients completed the questionnaire including sociodemographic data, lifestyle behaviors, health risks and confounding factors via the face-to-face interview method. Key ResultsOf the hypertensive patients, 81.2% (n=168) of the study group and 34.0% (n=68) of the control group had confounding factors. There was a significant difference between the hypertensive patients of study and control group in terms of their confounding factors (p<0.001). When we asked the patients of study group questions to reveal their confounding factors, 21.3% (n=44) stated ‘anger’, 12.6% (n=26) ‘sadness’, 11.1% (n=23) ‘anxiety’, 10.6% (n=22) ‘depressed’, 9.2% (n=19) ‘unhealthy diet’, 7.2% (n=15) ‘fatigue and poor sleep quality’, and 3.9% (n=8) ‘irregular medication’. Mean systolic and diastolic blood pressure were significantly higher in hypertensive patients having confounding factors than those without confounding factors (p=0.001, p=0.001, respectively). Mean systolic blood pressure of hypertensives who stated their confounding factor as ‘anger’ was significantly higher than those the remaining groups (p<0.001).ConclusionsThis study has shown that confounding factors impair blood pressure control in patients with hypertension. Confounding factors should be kept in mind and revealed in case of poor blood pressure control in hypertensive patients.

SUMMARY OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate the effect of virtual reality application on experimental ischemic pain created with a blood pressure instrument in healthy volunteers. METHODS: The research sample consisted of 172 volunteer adult students who conformed to the inclusion criteria. These individuals were assigned into an experimental (n=86) and a control group (n=86) by a simple randomization method. All individuals in the experimental and control groups wereexperimentally subjected to pain for two minutes by applying 260 mmHg of pressure 3-4 cm above the antecubital region of the left arm with an aneroid adult-type blood pressure instrument. During the procedure, the volunteers in the experimental group watched virtual reality images, while those in the control group received no intervention. Immediately after the procedure, the pain levels of the individuals in both groups were assessed with a Visual Analog Scale (VAS). RESULTS: We found that the mean pain score of the individuals in the experimental group was 2.62±1.82, and that of individuals in the control group was 5.75±1.65. Results of the statistical analysis showed a statistically significant difference between the mean pain scores of the individuals in the experimental and control groups (p<0.001). CONCLUSION: This study found that the use of virtual reality was effective in reducing the level of pain in healthy individuals. This method used a smartphone with widespread availability and ease of transportation, which can be used by health professionals as a non-pharmacological method in the management of pain.

10 female physical education students were given posthypnotic suggestions alluding to economy of effort in exercise. These suggestions were affirmed under self-hypnosis over two weeks. Experimental subjects pedalled on an exercise bicycle for 20 min. at 60% of their maximal work capacity while listening to suggestions from a hypnotist. The Control group ( n = 9) showed no differences between mean pretest and posttest scores on physical self-efficacy, trait anxiety, state anxiety, heart rate, blood pressure, and perceived rate of exertion. The average systolic blood pressure of the experimental group was the only positive significant difference between the pretest and posttest scores.

Wet cupping therapy  removes toxins  thereby increasing blood flow and  stimulating baroreceptors sensitivity which provides a stimulus to the autonomic nerves. This stimulus reduces the sympathetic nerves’ work and inhibits  the vasomotor center, leading to vasodilation, therefore decreasing blood pressure and pulse frequency. This research aims to determine the effect of wet cupping therapy on baroreceptors sensitivity with blood pressure and pulse frequency indicators. It was conducted in Sidenreng Rappang Regency, South Sulawesi, eastern Indonesia from February to May 2021. Randomized Controlled Trial (RCT) method was used including two groups of 31 respondents each. The intervention group used wet cupping therapy to regulate anti-hypertensive drugs and the control group used anti-hypertensive drugs with blood pressure and pulse frequency measurements until 6 weeks after the therapy. Wet cupping affects baroreceptor sensitivity by reducing the indicators. The result showed a significant difference in blood pressure measurement (systolic; diastolic) before and after the 2-week follow-up period (P = 0.000; P = 0.001), and between 2 and 4 weeks (P = 0.000; P = 0.000), but between 4 and 6 weeks there was no significant difference in the intervention group (P = 0.248; P = 0.583). There was a significant difference in pulse frequency at 2 and 4 weeks after the intervention (P = 0.016). In conclusion, wet cupping therapy effectively increases baroreceptor sensitivity by reducing blood pressure and pulse frequency indicators in hypertensive patients up to 4 weeks limit after the therapy, without any serious side effects experienced by respondents.

Hypertension is defined as a persistent blood pressure where the systolic pressure is above 140mmHg and the diastolic pressure is above 90 mmHg. Empowering patients by providing ongoing care services can create ongoing communication, building relationships between clients and service providers so that they will increase patients' confidence in overcoming problems. The visit of hypertensive patients has increased every month, health education about hypertension diet is generally carried out when the patient is diagnosed with hypertension and does not regularly monitor the implementation of the diet. The purpose of this study was to determine the difference in the effect of the approach to sustainable nursing services through health education about diet to changes in blood pressure of hypertensive patients. The research method uses a quasi-experimental design pre-post test with the control group. The study population was 108 respondents, the sampling technique used purposive sampling and obtained a sample of 33 respondents for each intervention and control group. Patient characteristics data were taken using a questionnaire, while blood pressure data was carried out by blood pressure examination. Data analysis used univariate, bivariate analysis with paired t-test statistical test. The results showed that there was a significant influence on diet health education on changes in elderly behaviour.
