Abstract: Hypertension and anxiety are among the group of the most common chronic disease worldwide, and according to numerous studies they are oftentimes associated each other. Patients suffered from chronic illnesses, such as hypertension, may have negative emotion that increases the risk of mental disorders, most commonly anxiety disorder. This study was aimed to assess the difference of anxiety degree between uncontrolled and controlled hypertensive patients. This was an observational analytical study with a cross-sectional design. Subjects were divided into two groups: controlled and uncontrolled hypertensive patients. Measurement of blood pressure parameter was performed by using office blood pressure monitoring. Anxiety parameter was classified based on the scoring of the Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale (GAD-7). Data were analyzed by using the Mann-Whitney test. Subjects consisted of 60 hypertensive patients (35 males and 25 females), aged 30-70 years (mean 56.48 years). There were 35 controlled hypertension patients and 22 uncontrolled hypertensive patients. The results showed that the difference in anxiety degree based on GAD-7 between controlled hypertensive and uncontrolled hypertensive groups obtained a p-value of 0.000. In conclusion, there was a significant difference in anxiety degree between uncontrolled and controlled hypertensive patients. Screening for anxiety among hypertensive patients is a simple and cost-effective tool that may improve outcomes.Keywords: anxiety, uncontrolled hypertension, controlled hypertension Abstrak: Hipertensi dan ansietas merupakan kelompok penyakit kronik yang paling umum di seluruh dunia. Berdasarkan banyak penelitian kedua penyakit ini saling berhubungan satu sama lain. Penyandang hipertensi mungkin memiliki emosi negatif yang meningkatkan risiko terjadinya gangguan mental berupa ansietas. Ansietas dan dukungan sosial rendah akan menghambat proses penyembuhan terutama dalam mengontrol tekanan darah. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menge-tahui apakah terdapat perbedaan derajat ansietas antara penyandang hipertensi belum terkontrol dengan hipertensi terkontrol. Jenis penelitian ialah analitik observasional dengan desain potong lintang. Subyek penelitian dibagi menjadi dua kelompok, yaitu kelompok penyandang hipertensi belum terkontrol dan hipertensi terkontrol. Pengukuran parameter tekanan darah dilakukan dengan menggunakan alat Oscillometric digital dengan cara Office Blood Pressure Monitoring (OBPM). Parameter ansietas diklasifikasikan berdasarkan skala Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale (GAD-7). Adanya perbedaan derajat ansietas antara kedua kelompok dinilai dengan uji Mann-Whitney. Subyek penelitian terdiri dari 60 penyandang hipertensi (35 laki-laki dan 25 perempuan) berusia 30-70 tahun (rerata 56,48 tahun). Terdapat 25 penyandang hipertensi yang belum terkontrol dan 35 penyandang hipertensi terkontrol. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terdapat perbedaan derajat ansietas berdasarkan GAD-7 antara kedua kelompok (p=0,000). Simpulan penelitian ini ialah terdapat perbedaan bermakna dalam derajat ansietas antara penyandang hipertensi yang belum terkontrol dengan yang terkontrol. Skrining ansietas pada penyandang hipertensi merupakan modalitas penting dalam penatalaksanaan penyandang hipertensi.Kata kunci: ansietas, hipertensi belum terkontrol, hipertensi terkontrol

AbstractBackground: A number of studies reveal that home blood pressure variability is associated with cardiovascular risk factors. However, we do not have a consensus regarding the variability index and the frequency of measurements.Objective: The aim of the study was to assess home blood pressure variability for a period of 7 consecutive days and 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure variability using the average real variability index and to test whether home blood pressure variability represents a suitable parameter for long-term monitoring of the hypertensive patients.Material and methods: A number of 31 hypertensive patients were included in the study, 8 male, 23 female, mean age 60.19±7.35 years. At the inclusion ambulatory blood pressure monitoring was performed, home blood pressure monitoring was carried out for 7 consecutive days with 2 measurements daily. We compared ambulatory blood pressure values, variability using paired t-test. We were looking for correlations between HBP values and cardiovascular risk factors.Results: Ambulatory versus home blood pressure derived mean blood pressure was 131.38±15.2 versus 131.93±8.25, p=0.81. Ambulatory derived variability was 10.65±2.05 versus home variability 10.56±4.83, p=0.91. Home versus ambulatory pulse pressure was 51.8± 9.06 mmHg vs. 54.9±11.9 mmHg, p=0.046. We found positive correlation between HBPV and home BP values, p=0.027, r2=0.1577, (CI: 0.04967 to 0.6588). Home, as well as ambulatory derived variability were positively correlated to age p=0.043, r2=0.1377 (CI: 0.01234 to 0.6451) versus p<0.0001, CI: 0.3870 to 0.8220, r2=0.4302.Conclusion: Assessment of home blood pressure monitoring and variability could represent a well-tolerated alternative for long-term follow-up of hypertension management.

Abstract BACKGROUND Antihypertensive therapy using renin–angiotensin system blockers and calcium channel blockers to target blood pressure variability (BPV) has not yet been established. We aimed to compare the ability of losartan and amlodipine to lower BPV and systolic blood pressure (SBP) in essential hypertensive patients. METHODS Patients were randomly assigned either losartan 50 mg or amlodipine 5 mg. Medications were uptitrated and hydrochlorothiazide was added according to protocol for 6 months. The primary endpoint was the office visit-to-visit SD of SBP. The secondary endpoints included average real variability (ARV), office SBP, and home SBP. RESULTS The losartan group (n = 71) and amlodipine group (n = 73) finished the scheduled visits between April 2013 and May 2017. The office visit-to-visit SD of SBP was comparable between the losartan and amlodipine groups (11.0 ± 4.2 vs. 10.5 ± 3.8, P = 0.468). The office visit-to-visit ARV of SBP was significantly elevated in the losartan group (10.6 ± 4.3 vs. 9.1 ± 3.4, P = 0.02). The absolute SBP decrement from baseline to 6 months was similar between groups, although the office mean SBP at 6 months was higher in the losartan group (132.3 ± 12.9 vs. 127.5 ± 9.0 mm Hg, P = 0.011). In home blood pressure analysis, evening day-to-day BPV indexes (SD and ARV) were significantly higher in the losartan group at 6 months. CONCLUSIONS The lowering effect of the office visit-to-visit SD of SBP was similar between losartan and amlodipine. However, the losartan group showed a higher office visit-to-visit ARV of SBP and evening day-to-day home BPV indexes. Therefore, amlodipine may be better to lower BPV in essential hypertensive patients.
