The incidence of hypertension in Southeast Sulawesi tends to increase each year. Many people with hypertension are tired of taking blood pressure-lowering drugs because they are addictive and have side effects. The objective of the study was to understand the effect of watermelon juice supplementation to decrease blood pressure on early adult hypertension sufferers in the working area of the Public Health Center of Poasia Kendari city. This study was a true experiment through pretest-posttest with a control group design. The sample size was 30 people who were determined by purposive sampling technique and was allocated by matching within 15 people for both treatment and control groups. The statistical test result showed that there were different blood pressure both systolic and diastolic blood pressures before and after receiving watermelon juice supplementation for 7 days with the dose was twice 350/gr/glass/day on treatment group with significance value ρ = 0,000 (α = 0,05). Meanwhile, for the control group, there was no different blood pressure before and after receiving supplementation with significance value ρ = 1,000 (α = 0,05) for systolic pressure and ρ = 0,499 for diastolic one. There was different blood pressure after receiving watermelon juice supplementation between treatment and control groups with significance value ρ =0,031 (α = 0,05) for systolic pressure and p = 0,012 for diastolic one. Hence, it’s concluded that there was a significant effect of watermelon juice supplementation to decrease the blood pressure on early adult hypertension sufferers.

Hypertension is a condition of systolic pressure above 140 mmHg and diastolic above 90 mmHg. Hypertension is more prevalent in elderly people aged 55 years and over, as we age, blood pressure increases. Hypertension can cause complications including heart damage, stroke, kidney failure. Non-pharmacological therapy to reduce blood pressure is one of them by using watermelon which has potassium content in helping the heart work and normalizes blood pressure. The purpose of this study was to analyze the differences in the effectiveness of the administration of watermelon juice for 5 days and 7 days against changes in blood pressure in elderly people with hypertension. The study used the True Experimental method with Randomized Pre-Post Test Design. The sampling technique uses Simple Random Sampling with the number of respondents as many as 36 elderly people divided into two treatment groups. The results of the Wilcoxcon test for administration of watermelon juice for 5 days obtained p = 0,000 (0.05) and the watermelon juice supply for 7 days obtained p = 0,000 (0.05), meaning that there was a change in blood pressure before and after watermelon juice administration watermelon juice for 5 days and 7 days. The results of the Mann-Whitney test comparing the two groups obtained systolic values p = 0.490 ( 0.05) and diastolic p = 0.732 ( 0.05) meaning that there was no difference in the effectiveness of the watermelon juice for 5 days and 7 days for changes in blood pressure. Based on the results of the analysis there was no difference in the long-term effectiveness of giving watermelon juice for 5 days and 7 days to changes in blood pressure in elderly people with hypertension. This therapy is equally effective in lowering blood pressure, so that more effective consumption of watermelon juice for 5 days has been able to reduce blood pressure.

The Difference

Uncontrolled hypertension can lead to heart disease, kidney disease, and stroke. Hence, it needs therapy. There are complementary therapies that can reduce high blood pressure. Music provides a relaxing effect so that blood vessel dilates and blood pressure drops. Humor therapy can provide a relaxation response and decrease blood pressure. Prayer therapy has a positive effect on body physiology that can lower blood pressure. The purpose of this study was to identify the effect of combination of music, humor, and prayertherapy on blood pressure. This study used true experiment pre and post control group design. The number of samples in this study were 131 respondents with primary hypertension on the elderly in Banyumas Regency. The sampling technique used was simple random sampling. Wilcoxon was used to test the difference of blood pressure before and after the intervention in one group, while the difference test among groups employed Mann Whitney test. The result indicated that respondent’s hypertension is categorized into moderate. There is difference on the mean of blood pressure before and after SIKKOMODO therapy and combination of music, humor, and humor therapy. There is a significant difference in term of systolicblood pressure betweentreatment and control group, and there is no difference on the systolic blood pressure between the two groups.
