Hypertension is the main cause of stroke which brings high mortality. The cause of hypertension consists of genetic and environmental factors, Along with the changing lifestyle of hypertension cases continues to increase. According to the WHO International Hypertension Society there are currently 600 million sufferers worldwide, and 3 million of them die each year. Based on the results of interviews with hypertension patients who visited the Tanjung Paku Puskesmas among the elderly, said if their high blood pressure always went to the Puskesmas and took hypertension medication, but still rarely did non-pharmacological treatment, so far it was more likely if there were complaints such as headaches, shoulders feels heavy then go straight to the health center. This type of research in this study is a pre-experimental design "One Pre-Test-Post Test Design" in this study the group of subjects was measured blood pressure before deep breathing techniques (pre-test), then carried out deep breating (intervention) and measured again pressure blood after deep breating technique (post test). From the statistical test there was a significant difference between systole blood pressure before and after the deep breathing technique with a p value of 0,000 ˃ 0.05. It is expected that health workers can provide more optimal information, especially for patients with hypertension both mild, mild, moderate and severe to help hypertension sufferers in lowering blood pressure in a non-pharmacological manner.

The increasing number of elderly and elderly life expectancy is a challenge for health workers. Decreased cardiac endurance, muscle strength and increased incidence of inflammation will occur in the elderly as we get older. health cardio exercises series-I is an aerobic exercise that has moderate intensity and is carried out for 30 minutes, research is needed to analyze the effect on cardiac endurance, muscle strength and decrease plasma TNF-? levels in the elderly. Research design with experimental method, pre-test and post-test design approach. The study was conducted for 4 weeks on 25 samples which were divided into 3 groups of frequency of health cardio exercises series-I to measure endurance of the heart. A 6-minute road test and muscle strength were used for hand grip strength dynamometer, test back and leg dynamometer. Measurement of plasma TNF-? levels is carried out using the Elisa method. The data was then analyzed using paired t-test to see differences before and after health cardio exercises series-I. The results showed health cardio exercises series-I performed 3x / mg can increase the heart's endurance compared to the frequency of 4x / mg and 5x / mg (-16.11 vs 15.62 vs -47.62 meters). health cardio exercises series-I frequency of 3x / mg and 4x / mg can increase back muscle strength (p-value = 0.019, p <0.05) and the frequency of 5x / mg can increase the strength of attractive shoulder muscles.

Abstract Background and Objectives: The call light system is one of the major communication technologies that links the nursing home staff to the needs of the residents. By providing residents with the ability to request assistance, the system becomes an indispensable resource for patient-focused healthcare. However, there is little known about how the call light systems are being used in nursing homes and how the system contributes to the safety and the quality of care for seniors. Therefore, the aims of this study are to understand the nursing home staff experience while using the call light systems and to uncover the usability issues associated with the implemented systems. Method: A mix of 150 hours of hypothetic-deductive (unstructured) and 90 hours of standard-procedure (structured) observational study were conducted in four different nursing homes. The data collected includes insights into the nursing homes work system and the process of locating and responding to call lights. Results: The data shows that the highest alarm rate is before and after meal times. The nursing staff exceeded the allotted time set by administration 50% of the time. Additionally, the staff canceled 10% of the call lights and did not immediately assist residents due to high workloads. Further, the staff forgot to come back to assist residents over 3% of the time. Usability issues such as broken parts, lack of feedback, lack of prioritization, and low/no discriminability are contributing to the long response time. More than 8% of the time, residents notified the staff about call lights after they waited for a long time, as these residents were left unattended. Conclusion: Nursing homes that are still using old call light systems risk the continuation of usability issues that can affect performance of the staff and contribute to a decline in staff and resident outcomes. While the healthcare industry has been at the forefront of technological advancements and implementation, it is important to recognize the influence of technology in the quality of service delivery for the elderly population in nursing homes and to the nursing homes staff working conditions.
