<![CDATA[AbstrakLatar Belakang: Hipertensi atau penyakit tekanan darah tinggi adalah suatu keadaan kronis yang ditandai dengan meningkatnya tekanan darah pada dinding pembuluh darah arteri. Seseorang dikatakan mengalami hipertensi atau penyakit tekanan darah tinggi jika pemeriksaan tekanan darah menunjukkan hasil di atas 140/90 mmHg atau lebih. Pemberian air rebusan daun alpukat merupakan salah satu bentuk pengobatan non farmakologi yang dapat mengatasi tekanan darah tinggi pada penderita hipertensi primer yang memiliki kandungan Flavonoid, Querstin, Alkaloid, Sterol, dan Saponin dimana zat alkaloid bersifat diuretik yaitu untuk mengubah keseimbangan cairan sedemikian rupa sehingga volume cairan ekstra sel kembali normal. Tujuan: Mengetahui pengaruh pemberian air rebusan daun alpukat terhadap penurunan tekanan darah tinggi pada penderita hipertensi primer, mendiskripsikan tekanan darah sebelum dan sesudah diberikan air rebusan daun alpukat, menganalisis pengaruh pemberian air rebusan daun alpukat terhadap tekanan darah tinggi pada penderita hipertensi primer. Metode penelitian: Penelitian ini menggunakan jenis penelitian Eksperimen semu (Quasi Eksperimen Design) One-Group Pretest-Posttest Design. tehnik pengambilan sampel menggunakan teknik Purposive Sampling didapatkan 12 responden yang menderita hipertensi primer. Uji normalitas menggunakan Shapiro Wilk dan analisa data menggunakan uji Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. Hasil: Ada pengaruh pemberian air rebusan daun alpukat terhadap penurunan tekanan darah tinggi pada penderita hipertensi primer. Kesimpulan: Perhitungan uji normalitas Wilcoxon signed ranks test diperoleh nilai signifikan sistol P: 0,002 dan nilai diastol P: 0,003 maka didapatkan nilai signifikan P < 0,005. Simpulan: Ada pengaruh pemberian air rebusan daun alpukat terhadap penurunan tekanan darah tinggi pada penderita hipertensi primer. AbstractBackground: Hypertension or high blood pressure disease is a contrived condition that deals with blood pressure in the arterial blood walls. Someone is said to have hypertension or high blood pressure if the blood pressure test shows a result above 140/90 mmHg or more. Provision of boiled water from avocado leaves is a form of non-pharmacological treatment that can treat high blood pressure in patients with primary hypertension which contain flavonoids, querstins, alkaloids, steroids, and saponins where alkaloids are diuretic which can change the fluid balance so that the volume of extra fluid cells back to normal. Objective: Knowing the effect of giving avocado leaf boiled water on reducing high blood pressure in patients with primary hypertension, describing blood pressure before and after being given avocado leaf boiled water, analyzing the effect of giving avocado leaf boiled water on high blood pressure in patients with primary hypertension. Research methods: This research uses quasi-experimental research (Quasi Experiment Design) One-Group Pretest-Posttest Design. The sampling technique used purposive sampling technique, obtained 12 respondents who suffered from primary hypertension. The normality test used the Shapiro Wilk and data analysis used the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. Results: There is an effect of avocado leaf cooking water on the reduction of high blood pressure in patients with primary hypertension. Conclusion: Calculation of Wilcoxon signed ranks test normality test obtained a significant value of systole P: 0.002 and diastole P: 0.003 then a significant value of P <0.005 was obtained. Conclusion: There is an effect of avocado leaf boiled water on the decrease in high blood pressure in primary hypertension sufferers.]]>
